The program can be added as a component to any stay at the resort and starts at $250 per person, from April 14 - Dec. 31, 2008. From a detoxifying seaweed body wrap and a sunset guided meditation massage, to a Japanese-inspired sunset slumber soak and exclusive seaside sleep cocoon, sleep-seekers receive a wide array of treatments in restorative and rejuvenating sleep therapy.

The restorative retreat begins when booking the SEASIDE SUNSET SLUMBER, as guests are given a survey on sleeping habits. Upon arrival at the resort, visitors receive a one-on-one consultation with a sleep therapist to decide the best treatment plan. Therapeutic eye masks are also provided to pamper tired eyes and assist in daytime napping. Visitors are then whisked to beachfront rooms featuring elegant four-poster “sink in” beds draped with delicate butterfly netting, pillow-top mattresses and goose-down pillows. An in-room safe serves as the ideal hideaway for sleep-depriving cell phones, laptops and watches.
Relaxation-seekers embark on the refreshing journey at SpaTerre, the resort’s private global ritual-inspired spa, with a detoxifying seaweed body wrap that includes a dead sea salt exfoliation and luxurious body mask, which improves circulation and ends tension with a mineral-rich seaweed from the nearby Caribbean waters. A revitalizing hydrotherapy shower follows, with warm water jets massaging in fluid motions, stimulating and softening skin.
Guests can stretch and tone with beachside Yoga and Pilates, enjoy palate-pleasing options at BALEENnaples, the resort’s signature restaurant, and partake in a sunset guided meditation massage, the perfect location to bask in the beauty of a scintillating sundown. Another option is a 110-minute sunset slumber soak on the SpaTerre veranda, which envelops the body in the warm essential oil-infused water of a Japanese soaking tub and provides an energy work-inspired session that complements the rolling tide and breeze.
As part of the exclusive seaside sleep cocoon experience, guests take a leisurely walk approximately 45 minutes before sunset and then nestle into a comfortable cocoon on the beach, where a 80-minute gentle energy work-inspired session once again complements the tide and breeze. Guests drift off to the scents and sounds of the gently lapping waters of the Gulf of Mexico only steps away, and then are escorted to the room for a restful and restorative night’s sleep.
When waking in the mornings and from relaxing treatments, spa goers arise to the relaxing sound of light music so as to ease into reality. Sleep-seekers who book the program also receive special amenities to assist in blissful sleep, including organic teas and a SpaTerre relaxation CD.
With global rituals and traditional outdoor Japanese Relaxation Tubs, SpaTerre promotes a combination of health (body), peace (soul) and relaxation (spirit), creating a tranquil and refreshing experience. Captivated by the cool and calming effect of the resort, guests indulge in a truly restorative spa experience with massages set to the backdrop of lush landscaping and cascading falls pools.
