New Kids Spa & Salon Offerings at Grand Velas Riviera Maya Extends Wellness to Resort's Youngest Guests
Riviera Maya, Mexico (January 26, 2026) - Grand Velas Riviera Maya has unveiled the new Jungle Kids Spa, a salon experience that transforms traditional pampering into a Mayan jungle-themed adventure for children. The concept redefines wellness for young travelers ages 5-12, offering a safe and playful environment where self-care meets imagination. Inspired by Pancho, the resort's wise and playful monkey mascot, Jungle Kids Spa transports young guests to a wellness refuge nestled within the Mayan jungle.
The indoor space harnesses the healing power of nature, combining soothing ambient music with the gentle philosophy that relaxation and rejuvenation can be fun. The dedicated kids-focused space encourages children to relax, play, and connect with peers while experiencing the joy of self-care in an environment designed exclusively for them. Murals and decorative elements throughout the space echo the destination - warm greens and blues mimic the lush foliage and vibrant waters of the surrounding Yucatan Peninsula.
The salon offers an extensive menu of services designed specifically for children. Young guests can enjoy manicure and pedicure stations, Shiatsu massage chairs, facial treatment areas, and creative hair styling zones. The Wellness Spa Kids Menu includes gentle massages such as the Sweet Dreams Massage (30 min/$105 USD or 60 min/$193 USD) for head, neck, and back, and the Chill Out Foot Massage (30 min/$105 USD or 60 min/$193 USD) featuring pressure point therapy and scented foot scrubs. Facial treatments cater to different age groups and skin needs, with options like the Purely Degunked Facial (45 min/$149 USD or 60 min/$193 USD) for deep cleansing and the Hydration Cascade (45 min/$149 USD or 60 min/$193 USD) for moisture-boosting care. The Berry Good Mani & Pedi services range from 30-minute Sparkle treatments for younger children ($105 USD) to 45-minute sessions for older kids ($149 USD), each featuring nail shaping, soothing scrubs, polish application, and decorative sticker accents. Hair styling services add another dimension to the experience, with offerings that include Twinkle Braids (30 min/$105 USD) adorned with glitter and ribbons, Sparkle Updos (45 min/$149 USD), and the signature Fairy Dust Wash & Style (60 min/$193 USD), which uses specially scented products to cleanse and nourish hair while adding shine and volume.
The holistic wellness approach extends beyond treatments with colorful drinks and guilt-free treats like healthy cupcakes and a variety of nutritious snacks that complement the pampering experience.
For group celebrations, Jungle Kids Spa offers SPARTY packages that combine multiple services. The SPARTY 1 package includes a hand and foot massage with facial cleanse ($193 USD), while the SPARTY 2 provides an extended experience with a customized facial and nail polish application ($268 USD).
Jungle Kids Spa treatments feature the organic and natural bath, body, and skincare FarmHouse Fresh products. Each young guest receives a complete FarmHouse Fresh product kit to use during their treatment and take home, along with an easy-to-follow guide for continuing their wellness journey. The experience extends beyond pampering to education and compassion, as children learn how their product choice directly supports animal rescues. Post treatments, kids can sign on to the FarmHouse Fresh website, where they can discover the specific animal their purchase helps save. "It's a feel-good experience from start to finish, nurturing their well-being while fostering compassion and environmental responsibility," says Leticia Fernandez, director of SE Spa at Grand Velas Riviera Maya.
