Named for an exotic tropical flower favored by hummingbirds, the new Heliconia Spa at DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Central Pacific in Puntarenas, Costa Rica offers treatments in secluded thatch-roof bungalows set amid lush gardens. Therapies use 100 percent natural, locally sourced ingredients, and signature services—such as the Bird of Paradise Scalp Massage, Tropical Massage, and Tulip Reflexology—are inspired by the resort’s vibrant tropical landscape.
To mark the spa’s opening, the resort is featuring a special Health and Wellness getaway starting at $130 per person, per night (based on double occupancy). The package includes all-inclusive accommodations and dining, a Tropical Relaxing Massage, yoga classes, guided relaxation exercises, a guided beach walk, a healthy buffet selection, and hydrotherapy in the spa’s private hot tub.
The Heliconia Spa emphasizes a tranquil, restorative experience tailored to the natural setting. Individual treatments are delivered in private bungalows designed for serenity and privacy. Therapists blend local botanicals and traditional techniques to create treatments that reflect Costa Rica’s biodiversity while promoting deep relaxation and well-being.
Guests on the wellness package can expect a balanced itinerary that encourages rest and gentle activity: morning yoga to center the body, spa therapy for tension relief, and leisurely walks along the shoreline to connect with the coast. Dining focuses on nutritious, flavorful options designed to complement the restorative aims of the retreat.
Beyond spa therapies and the wellness package, the resort offers opportunities to explore the surrounding environment—ideal for travelers who want a nature-focused escape with the convenience of on-site amenities. Whether seeking a restorative weekend or a longer recuperative stay, the Heliconia Spa provides a peaceful complement to the resort’s coastal setting.
