This will be one of the most unique experiences of your vacation! Laugh and giggle as you experience getting your feet “nibbled” on and your toes “sucked by tiny fish! It is a one and only Spa Fish Pedicure!
You will meet at Mr. Sanchos Beach Club for your reservation appointment time, where you will be directed to the Islander Fish spa which is located on the premises. You do NOT need to pay the entrance fee to Mr. Sanchos and you need merely tell them that you are there for the Fish Spa experience. This is a super FUN add-on to the Mr. Sanchos All Inclusive Day Pass. You can decide to add this onto the AI pass or you can do it separately. It’s up to you.
Once you arrive at the Spa, you will be greeted by our friendly staff and they will give you a briefing on what to expect. These fish, Garra Rufas, are more commonly known as “Doctor Fish”. The Garra Rufas are a type of toothless carp that harmlessly nibble off dead skin. This “spa” treatment originated in the Turkish hot springs. The pedicure treatments were so fun and popular that you can now find fish spas locations all over the world. Fish Pedicures have been featured on television on the show, "Keeping Up with the Kardashian's".
Your feet will be cleaned and then it will be time to sit down on our comfortable cushioned benches where you will lower your feet into the clean Lucite fish tanks. These little, finger-sized fish will immediately start nibbling away at the dead skin on your feet and toes. Don’t be surprised by the squeals of giggles and laughter. Look around you, and you will see everyone else is laughing, too! We find most everyone enjoys this unique experience and find it very relaxing. Remember, these fish are toothless, so biting is not a possibility! Contrary to popular belief, these fish are fed “fish” food on a daily basis. They actually get hungrier the more they eat. Remember, these fish are nibbling and tickling, so sit back and enjoy!
After your 30 minute session, notice how soft and smooth your feet feel! The reason, is that while the fish are nibbling your feet, they release and enzyme that actually rejuvenates the skin. They don’t call them doctor fish for nothing! And by the way, our water is sanitized and purified by a high-end UV light system, every 8 minutes. You will very gently remove your feet from the water where an attendant will give you a gentle exfoliating foot rub to remove any dead skin.
This is a really fun activity for people of all ages, women, men and children! All are welcome and all will find it fun! You would be surprised at how many men that want to come and experience it!
Once your appointment has ended you can choose to stay on at the beach club using your purchased or you can stay on the pay-as-you-go side. You can choose from a long list of beach club activities (please see other activities listings).
Of course you are welcome to leave the beach club when you are finished. Mr Sanchos Beach Club property has a huge expanse of beach where you can have plenty of room to spread out, take a walk or just relax and enjoy. If you want to go back to the ship, sightsee or do more shopping, there are many taxis waiting for you just a few steps away from the entrance.
