PALM SPRINGS

The Spa at Séc-he: This 73,000-square-foot oasis taps into the healing, nutrient-rich waters of the Agua Caliente hot mineral spring. Amenities include private mineral water baths, salt rooms, and more. 

DESERT HOT SPRINGS

Two Bunch Palms: Known for its mineral water baths and focus on holistic healing, Two Bunch Palms is a sustainable microresort that presents a nourishing, seasonal menu of vegetable-forward dishes for guests at its on-site restaurant.

CATHEDRAL CITY

The Paloma Resort: When it comes to unwinding, this resort promises it all, from tapas-style bites at on-site restaurant Sol y Sombra to spa services at Grounded at The Paloma. Follow your poolside libation with a massage for the ultimate experience, then cozy up in a suite decked in murals of desert plants.

RANCHO MIRAGE

The Ritz-Carlton Rancho Mirage: Perched more than 600 feet above the Coachella Valley, the sophisticated 244-room resort exudes unrivaled luxury, from the pair of pools with eye-popping views of the desert to the stunning two-story, 25,000-square-foot spa.

PALM DESERT

JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa: This wonderland of recreational activities includes golf, tennis, swimming, and wildlife experiences. You’ll ride a boat to reach your dinner reservation (really!), and if you’re after a little tranquility, the 38,000-square-foot luxury spa is just what the doctor ordered.

INDIAN WELLS

The Well Spa: Located at Miramonte Indian Wells Resort & Spa, the 12,000-square-foot relaxation haven is discreetly tucked behind the pool. Book an outdoor treatment for a particularly memorable experience.

LA QUINTA

La Quinta Resort & Club: Kick back and relish all this resort has to offer, from swimming, tennis, and golf to reinvigorating spa therapies such as a CBD candle massage, a pranayama breathing journey, a soak in a private garden tub, or a massage that begins with a wine tasting.
