Beach club resort and spa: a refined coastal experience at Mandarina

Along the pristine coastline of Mandarina, where the Pacific Ocean meets untouched natural beauty, the concept of a beach club resort and spa takes on a new dimension. At Canalan Beach Club, guests are invited to experience a thoughtfully curated destination that blends wellness, leisure, and refined coastal living in a setting designed for both renewal and celebration.

More than a place to unwind, Canalan is an immersive environment where health, relaxation, and social connection coexist seamlessly, offering a distinctive interpretation of what a modern beach club can be.

Canalan Beach Club: Where nature and well-being converge

Set on a secluded stretch of shoreline, Canalan Beach Club offers an atmosphere shaped by calm waters, soft sands, and open horizons. Designed as a holistic coastal retreat, it invites guests to slow down and reconnect with nature and themselves.

As part of the broader Mandarina destination, this beach club serves as a central gathering point for those seeking balance between movement and stillness. Days unfold organically, guided by the rhythm of the sea and a program of experiences centered on well-being, relaxation, and mindful enjoyment.

Where wellness meets the sea

A vibrant beachfront setting

Canalan’s oceanfront location creates an immediate sense of calm and possibility. Positioned beyond the estuary of the Mandarina Flatlands — a sprawling, verdant landscape at the heart of the Mandarina community that blends open green spaces with world‑class polo, golf and equestrian amenities — the beach club draws guests into a setting filled with turquoise waters and soft white sands that invite exploration and peace.

Here, the Flatlands’ lush terrain meets the tranquil waters of the estuary before reaching the Pacific, offering endless opportunities for relaxation, movement and connection with nature.

The sea is not a backdrop — it’s the very heartbeat of the experience. Guests can walk barefoot along the shoreline, take in views of the endless horizon, or simply lounge under the sun in thoughtful, sea‑facing spaces that blend comfort with the raw beauty of the coast.

Pools, water sports & ocean activities

At Canalan Beach Club, water is central to the experience. Infinity-edge pools designed with families in mind appear to blend seamlessly with the ocean beyond. These pools — with shallow areas for children and elegant lounging spaces — provide the perfect transition between beach and resort living. 

The calm, serene waters are also ideal for a variety of aquatic activities. Paddleboards, kayaks, snorkeling gear and sailing options are all provided by Mandarina Experiences, welcoming guests to explore the ocean in ways that feel both exciting and effortless.

A culinary journey by the shore

Dining at the beach club brings flavors of the coast directly to the table. At Allora — the open-air restaurant nestled right on the beach— guests can enjoy traditional Italian cuisine in a relaxed, barefoot-friendly environment. Whether it’s a casual lunch with your toes in the sand or an evening meal accompanied by ocean breezes, the experience is as flavorful as it is scenic. 

This relaxed dining approach reinforces the essence of a beach club resort and spa — where every moment is rooted in the natural rhythm of the shoreline and framed by breathtaking vistas.

Wellness & relaxation in a coastal sanctuary

A defining feature of Canalan Beach Club is its integration with holistic well-being. While the sea, sand, and warm sun invite languid afternoons, the environment also supports intentional rest and renewal. Guests can find shaded terraces perfect for meditation, quiet reading nooks overlooking the water, or guided wellness moments that help reconnect body and mind.

Situated as part of the larger Mandarina community, guests at Canalan also have access to One&Only Mandarina’s expansive spa offerings — including outdoor treatment rooms set amidst tropical foliage — where curated therapies emphasize restoration and presence.

Special events: Mark january 2026

Canalan Beach Club is not only a destination for everyday serenity but also a hub of curated experiences. In January 2026, the beach club will host a special event designed to showcase its unique combination of coastal beauty and curated programming. The event is set to include wellness workshops, seaside gatherings, and moments of shared connection, all set against the backdrop of the Pacific waves slowing into evening light.

This seasonal highlight welcomes both new visitors and returning guests to see Canalan not just as a place to relax, but as a destination where celebrations, community, and well-being blend seamlessly.

A coastal resort experience for every moment

Whether your day begins with sunrise yoga on the shore or ends with a leisurely stroll along the flatlands beaches, Canalan captures the essence of a beach club resort and spa in every detail. From family-friendly pools and water sport offerings to open-air dining and spa-infused relaxation, this destination is designed for those who seek beauty, balance, and connection by the sea. 

Anchored in its natural surroundings, yet elevated by thoughtful amenities and experiences, Canalan is a place where the sea becomes more than a view: it becomes the heartbeat of your stay.

At Mandarina, every moment is curated to feel intentional, whether it’s your first visit or a return to the shoreline you now call familiar. And with the broader offerings of One and Only Mandarina just moments away from signature spa experiences to refined beachside services, there’s no better canvas for unforgettable days beside the Pacific.
