To the north,
the rugged and seldom-visited Venezuelan north central
Caribbean coast.
To the south, the majestic and dense tropical rainforests
of El Avila National Park. This is the amazing setting
of Aloe Spa, located some three hours drive from Caracas.
Offering
a mixture of personal self-development, healthy food and
holistic medicine, it combines the pleasure of superb
cuisine and simple spa therapies with outdoor adventure.
Hatha yoga, tai chi, stretching, meditation, clay treatments,
hair and facial aloe treatments, exfoliation, aromatherapy,
steam room, hydrotherapy, massages, morning walks, day
and overnight hikes
to El Avila National Park touring waterfalls and
hot springs, horseback
rides, excursions to beaches
and coves accessible only by boat, snorkeling, birdwatching
and fishing
are all on hand in this beautiful place.
There are two major structures to accommodate guests at
Aloe Spa. The front building consists of a large open-air
searing area, constructed with timbers, bamboo and local
materials, and furnished with cedar wood and rattan pieces.
A few steps down onto a terrace area is a private room
for two. Down a well-appointed pathway of stone footsteps
and landscaping stands an open-plan five-room lodge. Tucked
up against a hillside of tall trees, the two-story structure
takes on the effect of a tree house. With balconies and
abundant seating niches, the house can accommodate as
many as 15 people, particularly inviting to families or
larger groups.
