The spa at Three Waters: oceanside massages and what to expect
Three Waters Resort and Marina offers oceanside massages marketed as "Oceanside Massages – Three Waters Resort" (also referenced as Oo La La) that take place on the beach with ocean views. Expect outdoor, beachside treatment settings rather than an enclosed full-service spa building; treatments are bookable through the resort concierge.

What "oceanside massages" at Three Waters mean
The resort lists its on-site spa offering as "Oceanside Massages – Three Waters Resort," and the property’s FAQ also references Oo La La as providing oceanside massage on the beach.
These services are delivered outdoors on or beside the beach so you’ll have ocean views and sea breeze during your treatment rather than an indoor spa suite.
- Promoted as beachside/oceanside massage treatments
- Referred to on property materials as Oo La La or Oceanside Massages
- Provided on the resort’s beach areas, not in a separate enclosed spa building (based on resort descriptions)
| Service style | Location noted |
|---|---|
| Oceanside Massages | Beach — ocean views (resort FAQ / listings) |
| Oo La La spa treatments | Listed as oceanside on resort pages |
| No indoor spa building listed | Resort copy emphasizes beachside treatments |

What to expect at your treatment
Expect an outdoor setup on the beach: treatment table or covered lounger, ocean soundscape, and the possibility of wind or sun exposure depending on time of day. The resort’s materials describe the service as "oceans ide massage on the beach."
Because treatments take place outdoors, bring or request sun protection and plan clothing for a beachside massage (swimwear or light clothing that allows access to the areas being massaged).
- Treatment area: beachside table or lounger with linens
- Environmental factors: ocean breeze, ambient noise, sun — plan accordingly
- Ask about shade, mosquito repellent, or privacy screens when booking
| During treatment | What you can request |
|---|---|
| Outdoor beach setting | Shade, towels, privacy arrangements (subject to availability) |
| Ocean sounds and breeze | Timing to avoid peak sun if desired |
| Open-air environment | Seating or sheltered options if available |
Timing, resort logistics and fees to know
The resort operates year-round on waterfront grounds and includes a nightly resort fee that covers many guest amenities; however, massage services are not included in the resort fee and are charged separately by the spa provider.
Three Waters’ posted resort details note shuttle and Rum Runner water taxi services, pool hours, and other amenities — coordinate arrival timing so you can get to your treatment on time, especially if transferring between sister properties.
- Resort fee covers many amenities but not spa treatments
- Confirm treatment time and allow extra time to reach beach locations
- If you’re staying at The Cove (21+ section), clarify whether the treatment will be on The Cove beach or another public beach area
| Resort detail | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Nightly resort fee | Includes items like Rum Runner water taxi, bike/kayak rentals, enhanced Wi‑Fi — spa is extra |
| Pools & beaches | Three pools including an adults-only Cove pool; beaches used for activities and treatments |
| Transportation | Complimentary water taxi between sister properties and an on-site shuttle |
Privacy, accessibility and weather considerations
Because massages are outdoors, ask the resort about privacy screens, covered treatment areas, or alternate indoor options if you require more seclusion.
The Florida Keys weather can change quickly. Treatments scheduled during heavy wind or rain may be moved or rescheduled; ask the concierge about the resort’s policy for weather-related changes when booking.
- Request privacy or shade when you book if that matters to you
- Confirm accessibility needs in advance if you have mobility or accommodation requirements
- Ask the resort how they handle cancellations or rescheduling for weather
| Concern | Suggested action |
|---|---|
| Privacy | Request screens or less-open location when booking |
| Mobility/accessibility | Tell concierge ahead of arrival to arrange accessible access |
| Weather | Confirm reschedule/cancellation options in advance |
After your massage: tips and nearby options
Plan to stay relaxed after your treatment: take advantage of on-site pools or lounge spaces, or enjoy a drink at one of the resort venues such as Kokomo (swim-up pool bar), Hideaway (The Cove’s adults-only lounge), or the waterfront Tiki Bar.
If you want a longer day of relaxation, combine a beachside massage with time at the pools, a meal at Kindler Wood-Fired Fare, or a short water taxi ride to one of the sister properties for different beach settings.
- Rinse off in a public shower or your room bathroom after oils
- Visit Kokomo for poolside refreshments (11:00 AM–sunset) or Hideaway at The Cove (11:00 AM–6:00 PM) for lighter fare
- Reserve dinner at Kindler Wood-Fired Fare or Little Limón if you want an elevated meal after your treatment
| Nearby on-site options | When open / notes |
|---|---|
| Kokomo (swim-up pool bar) | 11:00 AM–sunset — swim-up drinks and light bites |
