One Ocean Resort & Spa

Beginning in July, One Ocean Resort & Spa guests can enjoy the “Vanda Orchid Body Bliss.” While the sensuous aroma of vibrant Vanda orchids envelops the senses, a gentle orchid polish of white, red and green tea extracts along with goji berry, pomegranate and grape seed extracts sweep away impurities, allowing powerful antioxidants to penetrate the skin.
