Slow down to golden.

A day spa for unhurried hours: warm-oil massage, skin rituals by licensed aestheticians and a desert-inspired thermal circuit, all under one quiet roof.

Our philosophy

Gold is not a color here. It is a pace.

Aurum began in 2016 when founder Celeste Navarro turned a 1960s desert-modern house into eleven treatment suites around a courtyard of olive trees and still water.

Every visit starts with a ten-minute consultation and ends with tea in the courtyard. We never book treatments back to back, so no one ever hears the next appointment knocking.

Every treatment includes a consultation, the thermal circuit for the day and courtyard tea. Switch durations to compare prices.
