Upchurch, VIRTUOSO LIFE publisher Terrie Hansen and Virtuoso vice president

VIRTUOSO LIFE editors, in collaboration with Virtuoso’s member travel advisors,
selected nominees in 10 categories representing the pinnacle of service, design
and luxury in the industry. Grand Velas Riviera Maya was selected above other
nominees as the very best in its category demonstrating innovation, dedication,
a heightened social conscience and even courage. At 89,000 square feet, The
Spa at Grand Velas Riviera Maya is built amid the lush jungle that hugs the
resort and boasts an organic style reflective of its Mexican surroundings. A
cavernous lower level takes its inspiration from the region’s underground water
pools, or cenotes. A hand-hewn rock wall emerges from a winding chlorine-free
pool that’s outfitted with water-bubble beds, cascades and a gurgling volcanic
geyser.
