Lapis Spa at Fontainebleau

“It’s the most beautiful spa in America,“ says Martha Stewart of Fontainebleau’s Lapis Spa. Treatments include outstanding facials and ocean-inspired wraps, but what stands out are the amenities you enjoy afterward: mineral pools, massage-jet showers, eucalyptus steam baths. And then ”you lie on a marble chaise or bench by the pool,“ she says of the room modeled after the hammams of Marrakech. If you think your Fontainebleau suite is an indulgence, wait until you experience Lapis Spa. Prepare to transport your mind, body, and soul to new places at the ultimate Miami Beach spa resort and hotel.
