More Than Just a Spa
Sundara at Oil Nut Bay is more than a spa — it’s a sensory retreat rooted in the natural rhythms of sea and sky. Every aspect of the design supports wellbeing, from abundant light to glass floor panel treatment rooms revealing a marine sanctuary below, to the seamless line where water meets horizon. The architecture draws the sea inward, inviting guests to slow down, breathe deeper, feel flow, and connect deeply with nature.
World Class Architecture
Designed by US-based Jenn Zella and her creative world-class CID Design Group and Architect Carlos Agelet De Saracibar of OBMI, The Sundara spa and sanctuary embodies thoughtful, purposeful design and natural elegance.
“Our shared vision for Sundara stems from a harmonious, like-minded kinship and practice. Founder David Johnson and his team was highly supportive of the many creative design and programmatic wishes to make this space as impactful as possible.” – Zella
Design
A neutral, biophilic palette of materials inspired by the local landscape signals peace, tranquility, and connectivity to nature such as locally sourced coral stone, warm sun-bleached woods, and the element of indigenous copper.
Natural materials ground the space in place and purpose. Their textures are intentionally subtle — meant to echo, not distract from, the landscape just beyond the glass. Light stone and wood, natural and woven materials — all blend with the landscape to blur the line between indoors and out.
The heart and midpoint of the Sundara wellness studio is furnished with lounge seating. Abundant glass affords nearly 360-degree views and close connectivity to the bay, reef, and surrounding landscape. With 4 walls of operable glass the space can be open-air or conditioned for all-weather multi-purpose use.
Offerings
A thoughtfully equipped hospitality bar offers spa infused waters, herbal tea, chilled towels, and seasonal elixirs. Retail from well-curated mindful brands like VOYA.
Two treatment rooms encompassed by glass floor panels serve multi-purpose uses such as massage, stretching, infrared therapy, energy work, hair, skin, and nails. A beautifully designed shower room equipped using organic materials.
Studio for group yoga, Pilates, dance, guided meditation, sound baths, educational events, wellness workshops, celebrations, and well-centric social gatherings, etc.
Sundara Spa + Studio
Every detail is curated to support presence and renewal: yoga spaces that open to the sound of water, treatment rooms bathed in filtered sunlight, materials that soothe as much as they inspire. Sundara’s conscious design is quiet but powerful — a physical reflection of Oil Nut Bay’s deep commitment to living beautifully and lightly on the earth.
