Greet the Day with Oceanfront Meditation

At Hacienda Encantada Resort & Spa, guests can experience this sacred Indigenous ritual and emerge feeling refreshed and grounded. For a more immersive experience, One&Only Palmilla offers a 120-minute Temazcal Ceremony led by a local shaman, using heated volcanic stones, aromatic herbs and guided meditation to promote detoxification, renewal and a deeper connection to Mexico’s ancient healing traditions.
