With a distinctive blend of experiences incorporating invigorating and therapeutic oceanic elements, the poolside Spa Pearl at The Pearl Hotel provides an innovative and intimate spa experience with signature treatments that fittingly incorporate the healing powers of the pearl gemstone itself. The intimate, boutique-like spa delivers on the same attention to detail and unparalleled levels of service for which The Pearl has long been synonymous.

But you need not be a guest of The Pearl to enjoy the spa! Spa Pearl is open to the public and personalized for each guest’s need(s). Whether upon arrival or completion of your spa service, spa guests receive a complimentary glass of sparkling wine. Additionally, spa guests have access to the hotel’s private pool and hot tub an hour before and after their spa treatment – providing them with the opportunity to enjoy a swim, a sunbath, a treat or a drink poolside, before, after or in between their treatments. 

Within Spa Pearl’s four private poolside treatment rooms, men and women can select from an extensive menu of facials, massages, waxing services and signature body treatments, which range from two to four hours. Each treatment incorporates the best professional products on the market for enhanced relaxation and recovery, and Spa Pearl’s seasoned professionals can cater to your specific needs and areas of focus.

Not sure where to start? We recommend the popular Collagen Renew Lift & Sculpt Facial, Pearl Perfection Massage or, better yet, combining the two!

The 50- or 80-minute Collagen Renew Lift & Sculpt Facial combines the power of five intense HydroPeptide exfoliants to help improve cell turnover for a radiant complexion, leaving your skin glowing as it amplifies antioxidants and locks in hydration.

The Pearl Perfection Massage, which can also be scheduled for 50 or 80 minutes, incorporates a blend of deep tissue and relaxing Swedish techniques for ultimate relaxation. You may also consider adding in a therapeutic enhancement to any massage, including a warm oil scalp treatment, aromatherapy or foot scrub – or let the spa choose one that best meets your needs.

New to Spa Pearl this year is the popular and already highly requested HydraFacial™.  Recognized as the future of skin health treatment, HydraFacial™ uses patented vortex-fusion technology that acts like a vacuum to open pores, extract, clean and effectively deliver active ingredients to improve skin health and appearance.

So, what are you waiting for? Sit back, relax and indulge in a Spa Pearl experience of your own.

All of Spa Pearl’s treatments can be booked in advance online or by calling (850) 460-9041. Pricing and details for services and treatments can also be found on the spa’s website.

And because we believe your focus should be on dreaming, our team is here for the doing – no detail too small to ensure a beautiful beginning to your happily ever after.

What do you think makes weddings at WaterColor Inn so special?

We have the resources to work with inspiring and talented partners to bring every vision to life.

What’s the most important aspect to plan for when considering a wedding at WaterColor Inn?
With every outdoor wedding, the number one concern is always weather. Understandably, every couple wants that perfect outdoor ceremony, so having a solid Plan B is essential. At WaterColor, we literally have them covered! Any outdoor function can be moved indoors with little notice. Our team prides itself on our flexibility to take an outdoor ceremony inside without losing the essence or beauty of the ceremony. Not a lot of venues can say that.

Planning a wedding can be stressful, so we pride ourselves in “bringing the calm.” We collaborate with couples on all the details of their big day, so that we can create a fun, memorable and seamless experience for everyone. We plan so thoroughly that by the time they arrive for their wedding, they can spend their time making great memories with their guests; we’ve got everything else taken care of.

What’s the consistent thing couples say about getting married at WaterColor Inn? 
Our couples are incredibly grateful and do not withhold their praise for us. They thank us for providing them with their perfect wedding, for taking care of every detail for them and for the delicious food. They receive a lot of compliments from their guests too and in turn share that feedback on sites like Google, Wedding Wire and The Knot – which of course we love seeing!

What’s your favorite thing about a WaterColor wedding?
The creative process! No two weddings are ever the same, just as each couple is unique.  We absolutely love to infuse the couple’s personality into the wedding. Our greatest reward is being able to take their vision and their story and creating a beautiful celebration of their new life together. We absolutely love what we do!

Timeless luxury, coastal sophistication and personalized touches abound at The Pearl Hotel, where the littlest details are the biggest gestures. As the only full-service, adult-oriented hotel in South Walton, The Pearl provides the idyllic setting for a romantic beach getaway.

From the cocktail greeting at check-in to the hand-delivered freshly baked treat at bedtime, each detail is meant to be slowly unpacked and enjoyed (in front of a stunning Gulf sunset and with a glass of bubbly in hand, a plus). Much like its name implies, The Pearl is a gem that’ll dazzle guests visit after visit.

The Pearl’s thoughtfully curated experience makes each couple’s visit a distinctly memorable one. Not to mention, its surroundings within the coastal, West Indies-inspired community of Rosemary Beach® provide an air of romanticism, complete with pointed turrets, sun-splashed terraces and black-and-white striped awnings just footsteps away from the sugar-white sands of the Gulf of Mexico.

The 55-room boutique hotel is intimate in scale and classic in style, with elegant, modern and recently reimagined accommodations that all showcase picturesque views of either the Gulf, Town or Pool. For an extra special stay, couples may opt to book one of The Pearl’s nine Gulf-View Suites or splurge on The Pearl Suite, complete with its own separate master bedroom, private balcony, soaking tub and rainfall shower.

At the intimate poolside Spa Pearl, couples may choose from a unique blend of treatments incorporating invigorating and therapeutic oceanic elements for a truly serene experience. Couples looking to explore the picture-perfect town may do so by foot or bike, thanks to the complimentary bikes available to guests of The Pearl.

Additionally, guests of The Pearl also receive complimentary beach chairs and oversized umbrellas at the hotel’s private beach, but couples may choose to reserve a poolside cabana at which to lounge the day away.

When it’s time for a delectable meal, couples may choose to enjoy in-room dining in their private balcony, savor an unforgettably romantic dinner at the hotel’s AAA Four Diamond restaurant, Havana Beach Bar & Grill, or enjoy plentiful celebratory toasts (and sunsets)  at the Havana Beach Rooftop.
