"Located on 4,000 acres near the U.S. border, this longtime wellness destination (open since 1940) follows its founders' mission of a sane, balanced program of living: the spa offers holistic therapies like acupuncture, Reiki, and WATSU plus massages, facials, and wraps—many treatments use herbs grown on-site—while facilities include hot tubs, sauna, steam room, relaxation lounge, and cold immersion; physical exertion is central with daily hikes, running, kickboxing, cycling, salsa, and yoga, and guests stay in 86 casitas decorated with vibrant Mexican textiles and terra-cotta tile floors." - CNT Editors
"A storied fitness-and-wellness retreat founded in 1940 that combines an extensive weekly schedule of more than 300 classes—Pilates, yoga, tai chi, strength training and guided hikes—with a six-acre organic farm and hands-on culinary programming. Set across more than 150 acres of gardens, olive groves and trails, the property supports a classic week-long immersive routine alongside renovated accommodations and private villas." - Devorah Lev-Tov
"A renowned fitness and wellness resort transformed from a small hut in the mountains of Baja California, focusing on exercise classes, freshly-grown food, and nature."
"Baja-based wellness pioneer Rancho La Puerta is hosting an Iyengar Yoga workshop for perimenopause, with a focus on asanas that address hot flashes, insomnia, and mood swings."
"A time-honored wellness haven founded in 1940 as a summer health camp and now a sprawling retreat where the motto “siempre mejor” guides a program of daily optional activities—hiking, qi gong, kickboxing, cycling—across thousands of acres. Guests stay in colorful casitas and benefit from long-standing commitments to sustainability (water conservation, green construction) and evolving programming that includes ceremonial events, menopause-focused women’s retreats, and new private-residence options." - Laura Begley Bloom
