A modern and luxurious oasis on Belize's Placencia Peninsula, Naia Resort and Spa is the place to come and unwind, boasting a wide stretch of powdery white beach, an expansive and indulgent spa, views across the sparkling waters of the Caribbean Sea and a selection of spoiling restaurants and bars. Although a resort at heart, Naia provides many a secluded spot, with loungers tucked away among swaying palm trees which form a kind of beach forest.
The focus of a stay here is total relaxation, with all of the resort's accommodation and facilities centered around a spoiling spa which is a sanctuary in the heart of the jungle. Set upon a lagoon, the spa boasts five over the water treatment rooms, a fully equipped fitness suite and a yoga studio, as well as the Waterside Cafe which serves up delicious healthy snacks and fresh juices. Other dining options include the signature restaurant 1981 and a casual poolside beach bar, serving locally sourced produce where possible.
Accommodation is decidedly modern and comprises 35 individual houses and treetop villas, many boasting private plunge pools and terraces. All of the Beach Houses feature a private veranda with direct beach access, AC and ceiling fans, full kitchen with fresh gourmet coffee beans ready to grind, Smart TV, Bose sound systems, WiFi and private outdoor showers, as well as deep soaking tubs. There is plenty of space here to continue your relaxation and the beach is just steps away.
For houses and tree-top villas without a private pool, there is a large shared swimming pool with space for lounging or swimming laps, whichever takes your fancy. Attentive staff are at hand throughout to ensure everything you need is taken care of, whether you crave tropical cocktails, require a fresh towel or simply need some extra shade. Nothing is too much trouble, leaving you to get into the zen spirit of things.
