Singer Island, FL, is a peninsula on the Atlantic coast of Palm Beach County in South Florida. Named after Paris Singer, a son of the Singer Sewing Machine founder, Isaac Singer, Singer Island is known for its parks, hiking, bike paths, white sand beaches, and breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean. Spanning seven beachfront acres on Singer Island is Amrit Ocean Resort (Riviera Beach, FL).
Amrit, which means “elixir of life” in Sanskrit, is a wellness-focused property rooted in five pillars of wellness: mindfulness, nutrition, fitness, relaxation, and sleep. The 103,000-square-foot indoor and outdoor Amrit Wellness & Spa, which opened in August of 2024, spans four floors and is considered the heart of the resort. “In designing the wellness facilities, our goal was to be able to integrate ancient practices with modern practices in a seamless manner,” says Neera Barot, co-founder of Amrit Ocean Resort. “To achieve this, we worked with some of the most well-known spa founders and consultants, as well as the interior design rm, Bilkey Llinas Design, which was able to blend Eastern and Western design elements to create a modern and approachable space. With Bilkey Llinas Design’s presence in Asia, they were able to achieve this design in a seamless manner and create an aesthetic that has not been seen in the United States previously.”
Using a combination of European, Chinese, and Indian wellness traditions and techniques, the spa’s menu of services was created with the ethos of Amrit Ocean Resort in mind—ancient philosophy meets modern science, according to Barot. The treatment menu includes services, such as Reiki, re exology, manual lymphatic drainage, cranial sacral therapy, myofascial release, facials, and more. While some guests visit the spa simply to relax, others want to focus on overall health and longevity. With that said, massage services remain very popular among guests, especially the personalized Amrit Custom Massage ($195, 50 minutes) and the Clarity Massage ($295, 75 minutes), which involves warm Himalayan salt stones, containing more than 84 trace minerals, strategically placed on the body to deliver a grounding massage that helps open blocked energy points throughout the body.
For facials, guests typically gravitate toward the Bespoke Facial (starting at $360, 75 minutes) and the MediSpa Facial Rejuvenation (starting at $275, 50 minutes), which helps to exfoliate, brighten, smooth, tighten, and nourish skin. The treatment includes a consultation and an experience with the guest’s choice of five state-of-the-art modalities, including radiofrequency, ultrasound, hot or cold handpieces, hydra-dermabrasion, and more. Guests can also enjoy the spa’s Ammortal Chamber, which is a bioenergetic technology designed to promote cellular repair, reduce inflammation, boost immunity, and optimize longevity.
Additionally, Amrit Wellness & Spa boasts a wide range of integrated wellness services, such as floatation therapy, acupuncture, sound wave therapy, color and light therapy, Tibetan sound bowl chakra balancing, and Ayurvedic treatments. It also features a menu of traditional and elevated salon services, including manicures, pedicures, haircuts, hairstyling and coloring, and makeup application.
One standout feature of the spa, according to Barot, is its patented Personalized Wellness Support System, which allows guests to work with a Personalized Wellness Guide to build a Personalized Wellness Roadmap to achieve their goals. Available only to guests who have purchased a wellness package or are taking part in one of the resort’s retreats, the Personal Wellness Support System is a web-based platform that provides guests with an individualized wellness experience before, during, and after their stay. These packages give guests access to a virtual assistant that guides them through their wellness journey via text, chat, email, and video sessions; and includes goal-setting and accountability tracking tools; and access to resources like tele-coaching, webinars, and a virtual content library.
Another distinctive offering is the Aayush, an indoor-outdoor hydrothermal circuit designed to energize, relax, detox, and improve circulation. Spanning 40,000 square feet, it features a sequence of hot and cold replenishment pools; a hydro-reflexology path; an ultra-filtered lap pool; steam and sauna rooms; inhalation salt therapy chamber; arctic chill fountains; and an effusion shower that combines aromas with a fine mist, an intense storm, a downpour of rain, or a mystic arctic chill.
In order to achieve whole-body wellness, spa guests are also encouraged to utilize the property’s state-of-the-art fitness center during their visit, which features a 3,500-square-foot main cardio studio equipped with Matrix equipment, along with six additional breakout studios for group fitness and wellness classes, such as yoga, meditation, Pilates, indoor cycling, movement, and cardio. A retail area in the spa and wellness center is available for guests to browse and shop for a wide range of items, including activewear and resort clothing for men and women, an array of skincare and bodycare products and tools, supplements, and books. The spa plans to offer more items like swimwear, jewelry, and gifting options for the holidays.
As with any new spa, earning recognition in the competitive spa and wellness market is never an easy feat. However, Amrit Wellness & Spa is working to ensure its guests truly enjoy their experience at the spa and leave healthier and happier. Through strong marketing tactics, the spa is helping guests book the services that will help them best achieve their wellness goals, including non-traditional services that might be overlooked by utilizing its on-site wellness concierge, offering tours, and hosting events for various services.
Because the spa attracts so many local residents, it launched the Wellness Club Membership to keep these guests eager to return on a regular basis and help them achieve an overall healthier lifestyle. The membership program provides exclusive access to the spa and fitness facilities, such as the Aayush hydrothermal experience; personalized fitness and wellness support; members only wellness workshops; special pricing on spa services; and more. Says Barot, “From its inception, Amrit was truly conceptualized to help people live healthier, happier, and longer lives, by combining the best wellness approaches of the ancient and the modern worlds.”
