Guests can cure themselves with some aquatic therapy via a dip in UXUA’s one-of-a-kind crystal pool. The lake-like creation which appears to glow at certain hours of the day and evening is composed of 40,000 specimens of unique green aventurine quartz, a native Bahian stone held by many to possess powerful healing qualities.
