Experience the aloe plant’s healing properties and restorative powers on a visit to an island aloe facility and The Ritz-Carlton Spa, Aruba. This wellness-focused day begins at Aruba Aloe. Founded in 1890, the company was one of the world’s first to formulate and manufacture skin and hair products with the succulent plant. In the surrounding fields, your guide will explain how the plant thrives in Aruba’s desert-like environment and the harvest process. The production facility and museum showcases the domestication of aloe, its many uses and Aruba Aloe’s various products.
From Aruba Aloe in Hato, it’s a short drive to Palm Beach for an aloe-based treatment, like the unique “Hydro Aloe”, at the spa at The Ritz-Carlton resort. Just steps from the powdery sands of Aruba’s Palm Beach sits one of its most stunning luxury resorts. The white powder sand beaches and crystal blue waters serve as the perfect backdrop to the resort’s world-class spa. You’ll first create a customized sugar scrub, then indulge in your choice of a full-body massage or a neck massage combined with a facial in one of the spa’s 13 tranquil treatment rooms. During your time at The Ritz-Carlton, you’ll also have several hours to relax and enjoy the oasis-like property and many amenities, from the sauna, Jacuzzi and fitness center to the outdoor pool and beach areas
