Our 10 Favorite California Spas for a Weekend Getaway
At Spa Solage, the line between the natural world and the designed one disappears. Morning mist rises off the geothermal pools, and the air smells faintly of mineral and grapevine. The signature Mudslide ritual—a combination of mineral-enriched mud, thermal soaks, and sound healing—sets the tone for the day. Between treatments, guests lounge in private cabanas with views of the Palisades, or cycle into downtown Calistoga for wine tasting.

At Sense, A Rosewood Spa, the weekend begins with the sound of waves. Therapists at Rosewood have a way of putting you at ease with treatments ranging from warm stone massages to detoxifying body wraps.

The Regent feels like a study in light and texture: sunlight catching on marble, ocean air drifting through the spa’s private hammam. Start the day with an Imperial Relaxing Massage or a Tailor-Made facial, then take lunch by the infinity pool that stretches into the Pacific. Afternoon might mean a nap in a cabana, a swim, or another hour in the hydrotherapy circuit. By sunset, you’ll swear the air itself has changed. It’s that singular, cinematic feeling of the California coast when everything slows.

Perched high above the Pacific, Alila Ventana feels like a place outside of time. The spa here draws from the landscape: sea salt, redwood, stone, and light. Morning yoga gives way to a 50-minute premium facial or custom massage, followed by an hour in the open-air soaking tubs that overlook the cliffs. Treatments are enjoyed alongside views of fog drifting off the ocean for an experience as restorative as it is breathtaking.

The Maybourne Spa unfolds like a story: you enter through light-filled corridors and move gradually deeper into art deco zen. The sequence of mineral pools and thermal suites—steam, soak, cool, rest—set the stage for deep relaxation before a treatment in one of the spa’s private treatment rooms. Guests easily spend an entire afternoon reclining on heated loungers before wandering to The Terrace for a glass of champagne.

La Costa has been a sanctuary for decades, and it still carries that sense of tradition. Courtyards are draped in bougainvillea, and the scent of orange blossoms drifts through the air. Begin your day with a soak in the outdoor whirlpools or a walk along the reflexology path before a sauna or steam room session. The Roman waterfalls invite long, meditative pauses. When the sun starts to dip, the spa’s garden fire pits become the perfect place to sit in silence, wrapped in a robe, as the day softens to evening. A full day spa pass starts at just $141.

There’s an old-world romance to The Langham. The grand colonnade, the sunlight on manicured lawns, the hush that settles over the Chuan Spa.

The spa’s cottage-style architecture and open-air lounges create an atmosphere of ease. Treatments use ingredients grown or produced nearby, such as lavender, rosemary, and honey. A facial in the afternoon sun gives way to an herbal tea on the veranda, followed by a dip in the heated saltwater pool.
