Living Artfully at Tierra Santa Spa During Miami Art Week


As the Faena Festival combines art and technology, art and faith, and art and food, Tierra Santa Healing House participates in Miami Art Week through the marriage of art and wellness

Art is not an object separate from us; art is within us.

To live artfully is to live the present moment with happiness.

- Spa director Agustina Caminos

Festival-goers can drop into stillness with morning and sunset yoga classes led by Lina Pinilla and Caminos, as well as complimentary daily Twin Hearts Meditations, both taking place on the beach near Faena Festival’s 17-foot Buddha art installations. The profound power of these monumental statues resonates with the harmonious vibration achieved by a large group of people pulling down energy all at once. There is no better way to top off your own reserves and coax open your inner eye than through meditation, which Caminos calls “a highway to illumination.” The seaside yoga and meditation classes are open to all seekers, as are Tierra Santa’s range of Miami Art Week events and healing workshops.

On December 6, forward-thinking designers Helena Christensen and Camilla Stærk will host a pop-up shop in the Tierra Santa boutique, while spiritualists Anabella and Scott will offer 30-minute astrological Ayurvedic readings that delve into the forces connecting health, love, career and one’s life purpose. Need help releasing tension and guiding your mind towards New Year’s resolutions? Join the Miami Art Week closing ceremony on December 8 hosted by Caminos and mystic musician Jared Bistrong, which features a sound crystal healing with sacred mantras that purify the heart and bring sharpness to intentions. The experience also includes all-day access to Tierra Santa’s exclusive Wet Spa featuring a marble hammam, steam bath, sauna and ice parlor.

Where Fire and Flavor Ignite

"What makes Los Fuegos truly extraordinary is our commitment to the ancient art of cooking with fire,” explained Yassine Belkady, the restaurant’s manager. “We use no electricity whatsoever—just fire, wood ovens, and tradition” Everything has that distinctive char, those bold, nearly burnt flavors that taste almost primal. “When you dine here, you can literally smell the wood and rosemary in the air,” he added. The restaurant’s setting matches its culinary panache. By day, the veranda transforms into an airy ambience when its retractable roof opens to Miami’s brilliant skies. Guests enjoy lunch while overlooking the property’s stunning pool, creating what Belkady called “a completely different experience than any other hotel or restaurant in Miami.” 

Beneath the Tree of Life

Mornings here unfold slowly while guests sip on fresh-pressed juices—like the South Beach, a tropical elixir of coconut water, local citrus, mango, and strawberry, or a vitamin-rich Green Juice packed with spinach, kale, ginger, cucumber, celery and green apple. “The tranquility makes it really special,” noted Joshua Rodriguez, Director of Nightlife. “It’s a place where guests can grab a coffee, a light bite and relax or catch up on some emails.” A menu of delicious appetizers is great for snacking throughout the day, including crispy artichokes with sesame yogurt and sourdough breadcrumbs; prime rib empanadas with llajua sauce; and a vegan option of steamed veggie rice with sweet potato and broccoli. Come golden hour, the energy shifts. On weekends from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm, resident DJs set the mood as the bar transitions into a laidback sundowner haunt. The CopaCabana cocktail, a tropical indulgence of banana and apricot liqueur, coconut cream, allspice, and Bulleit Rye, is a guest favorite. “People order it because it’s served in a Faena-branded coconut, but it’s the taste that makes them request another one,” said Rodriguez.
