Eco-Spas Take On Miami

It’s good enough for Kourtney and Khloe…Kardashian, that is. Is it good enough for you?

With brand new eco-spas opening there, maybe Miami is.

Long thought of as the playground of the rich, famous, and scantily clad, Miami is ushering in a new era. Sure the beaches are still lined with 5-star resorts, pricey restaurants, and beaches full of thongs and speedos, but the city is also now host to a small bevy of eco spas and resorts.

Take Uhma Spa, the eco-chic urban sanctuary designed to bring people and nature together as uma (Portuguese for one). Uhma, on 6th Street in downtown Miami, sells and uses only 100% natural, organic and cruelty-free products. 

Or Emena, another boutique eco-spa found in the bustling Design District of Miami. While waiting, guests are offered their choice of wheat grass, fruit-infused water, or organic tea. And, so their clients can fit into their speedos and thongs, Emena offers more than deep sea wraps and massages, they offer personal training and Power Plate Fitness.

And then there’s the Mandarin Oriental Miami. Mandarin Oriental hotels are commonly recognized as home to benchmark spas and luxe surroundings, but the Miami branch is stepping that up a bit in the direction of giving back and protecting the earth around as they play host to new eco experiences that even include a trip into the wild west of the south – the Everglades.

Would you take these spas on?
