To celebrate the new hot and steamy heart of El Nido, (and to back-fill the cost of its creation...) we launched a limited-production line of apparel and special collaborations with artist friends! Our hand-dyed, hand-printed designs directly fund the sauna build, and are currently in production for May delivery.


Ordering has now closed for most editions.
Thank you for your support, and stay tuned for more artist collaborations in the future!

 
 
Vihta Splash Waffle Robe
$120.00

LIMITED EDITION
Hand-dye and print by El Nido


We've taken a springy waffle-weave spa robe, overdyed it in a pollen hue, and splashed it with a birch sauna 'vihta' to make a reverse-dye speckle. Our block-printed steaming coyote Sauna Club patch is sewn at the chest. Self-tie belt, in-seam side pockets. The cotton/viscose blend with waffle texture is absorbent and dries fast. Each piece is unique, dye and splatter appearance will vary slightly.

(Nets $72 for the sauna build)

* The Vihta Splash Waffle Robe is a custom production piece, available only for a short time. Order cut-off is March 31, with expected delivery in early May 2024.

LIMITED EDITION
Chad Wentzel x El Nido x Marimekko x IKEA

Hand-dye and print by Chad Wentzel and El Nido
Trim interventions by Chad Wentzel

A special tricked-out short-run collaboration with textile artist and El Nido bestie Chad Wentzel. We've taken a graphic flat-weave kimono style spa robe, reverse-dyed it with a shibori folding technique, overdyed it in a pollen hue, and hand-applied sleeve trim, tassel, and pocket detailing. Our block-printed steaming coyote Sauna Club patch is sewn at the chest. Self-tie belt, patch pockets. The cotton/lyocell blend absorbs and draws moisture and dries quickly. Each piece is unique, dye patterns and hues will vary slightly. One size.

(Nets $210 for the sauna build)

Felted Wool Sauna Cap
$45.00

LIMITED EDITION
Hand-dye and construction by El Nido


We've taken vintage wool blankets, felted and overdyed them in sage hues, and sewn three-panel hats with hanging loops, perfect for sauna. The bell shape helps to insulate the top of your head and protect your ears from radiant heat, allowing your body to heat more evenly and tolerate higher room temperatures for a longer time. It’s a traditional banya hat that we also find ideal for Finnish sauna, and for elfin looks. Each piece is unique, color placement on fabric panels may vary slightly: ‘gray-blue sage’ has faint bands of violet and mustard; ‘green sage’ may have an occasional black band. One size.

(Nets $35 for the sauna build)

 
 

We work hard to keep cabin stays accessible to as many guests as possible. Your purchase of art and apparel helps to build improvements and guest amenities like the sauna, and helps keep cabin rates low for everyone!
