With spectacular services on offer, the spa features everything from holistic therapies to medical treatments like botox and peels. A stay here is the perfect opportunity to try something other than a standard massage—a favorite is the eighty-minute "Muscle Melt Warrior Massage" which incorporates heated herbal bags from Thailand. The therapist starts by pounding them into your body and as they cool down, she does some additional movements. This is followed by a massage; overall, it's an incredibly relaxing service and gets deep into the muscles which is especially beneficial for those who are active.

The food philosophy here is simple, healthy and clean. Canyon Ranch favors organic and free-range whole foods and ingredients—from pesticide-free non-GMO produce, to humanely raised hormone and antibiotic-free meats, grass-fed beef and sustainably caught or raised seafood. They even partner with the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch program to support healthy oceans and ensure they help minimize the environmental impact of fishing.

Canyon Ranch only sources real ingredients—those that are unprocessed and free of additives, preservatives, artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners and unhealthy fats. Plus, the culinary team here always offers vegan and gluten-free options at every meal and can accommodate some kosher and allergen-free requests. Everything is portioned out just right so you’re always getting enough food without feeling like you over indulged. If you wish to relax and unwind, head over to Javelina Cantina for thoughtfully selected wines, local beers, and refreshing house-made "Ranch" water.
