Wellness is now an essential expression of modern luxury, and at Vila Vita Parc — a resort distinguished with Michelin Three-Key recognition — it is approached with uncommon depth and refinement. The Vila Vita Spa by Sisley Paris is a serene, design-forward sanctuary devoted to the harmony of body, mind, and spirit, where beauty rituals, restorative therapies, and fitness experiences are carefully curated into a seamless, personalized journey of well-being.
The Spa
The Vila Vita Spa by Sisley embodies quiet sophistication within a 17,250-square-foot sanctuary inspired by the Algarve’s enchanting coastal caves. Contemporary interiors blend natural stone with soothing shades of green and blue, creating an organic sense of flow that echoes the Atlantic just beyond. It’s a space designed to slow the pulse from the moment you arrive.
The spa is home to 14 elegant treatment cabins, each fitted with state-of-the-art Gharieni treatment beds—crafted by the renowned German manufacturer known for producing some of the world’s finest spa equipment. These cocooning beds provide the ideal foundation for the spa’s signature experiences: Sisley Paris’s celebrated Phyto-Aromatic face and body treatments.
Sisley Paris Philosophy
Sisley’s reputation rests on its ability to unite advanced scientific research with the finest natural ingredients. Plant extracts and essential oils—rigorously selected for their biological properties and their affinity with the skin—form the backbone of every ritual. The Phyto-Aromatic treatments combine aromatherapy with massage techniques inspired by traditions from around the world, creating a deeply sensorial journey that reunifies body and mind. Each facial and body protocol is tailored to the skin’s needs, with specific massage techniques designed to deliver both visible results and profound relaxation.
Signature Massages
Massage and relaxation rituals form a cornerstone of the Vila Vita Spa experience, with a thoughtfully curated menu designed to restore balance, release tension, and elevate overall well-being. Signature offerings include the indulgent Golden Quartz Treatment, a unique hot sand therapy that combines heated crystal pindas, flowing massage techniques, and the meditative resonance of singing bowls for a deeply cocooning, beach-inspired experience. Classic therapies range from Swedish and deep tissue massages to the soothing warmth of a hot stone ritual, each adapted to individual needs and pressure preferences. For a more immersive sensorial journey, the Aroma Oil Massage uses personalized blends of essential oils to harmonize body and mind, while the Anti-Stress Ritual targets back, neck, shoulders, head, and feet to dissolve everyday tension.
