The Best Spas for a Weekend Getaway

"The creamily hued suites, rooms, and tile-roof bungalows of this century-old, ultra-luxe Mediterranean-style hideaway all but glow in the California sun that bathes their setting in the Santa Barbara Hills. The sense of warmth and luxury continues at this storied resort’s intimate, private-feeling spa: Two of the facials feature caviar, and Hollywood celebrity aesthetician Linda Ross recently created an exclusive full-body treatment for the resort that promises the same stellar regenerative results of her signature facials—but for all of your skin. A staff of six private fitness instructors are on hand to put you through your paces, if that’s more your speed, and there are complimentary group wellness classes offered on weekends, too." - Andrew Sessa
