Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita (Punta Mita; tel. 800/332-3442): The enticing spa at this posh resort is one of its principal appeals. The menu of spa services based on native Mexican therapies is an intriguing complement to the modern facilities and amenities. Located north of Puerto Vallarta.

Ikal del Mar (tel. 888/230-7330 in the U.S.); Maroma (tel. 866/454-9351 in the U.S.); and Paraíso de la Bonita (tel. 800/327-0200 in the U.S.): The area north of Playa del Carmen, around Puerto Morelos, is a hotbed of spa-resort luxury. These three establishments, in lovely settings, offer guests an impressive range of pampering treatments. And it's all just a half-hour or so from the Cancún airport.

El Tamarindo (Costa Alegre; tel. 315/351-5032): Admittedly, the spa facilities at this resort are limited, but the spa director has creatively integrated the surrounding natural beauty and history into this spa -- think massages on the beach, scrubs made from local volcanic mud, and their very special version of the ancient purification ritual, the temazcal.

Aqua (Cancún; tel. 800/343-7821 in the U.S.): This brand-new resort, part of the Fiesta Americana chain, was designed with the sense of "spa" (salud por agua) in mind -- all colors and spaces carry a water theme. As for its actual spa, it's a 1,500 sq.-m (over 15,000-sq.-ft.) facility that blends Eastern, pre-Hispanic, and Western treatment philosophies. Tai Chi, yoga, and Pilates classes are offered, and you can indulge in a full array of massages and treatments.
