Best Resort/Spa Destination

tsavorite — Thu, 08 May 2014 04:27:24 GMT

can any of you ladies recommend a wonderful place that is super relaxing...to plan a get away. I'd like to go perhaps to California or west part of the country. Not a romantic get away at all...just need to go somewhere and have a massage, some good food and beautiful surroundings. Pamper myself for one time in my life. I'd be alone...a week escape.

If you have any ideas please share! I do get lot's of Groupon ad's for places that sound like this but I don't know if those are legit or what.

Thank you

I went to La Costa many years ago. It was near San Diego. It was gorgeous and the food was great, spa was great, and it was a wonderful 5 days!

A friend goes to Canyon Ranch in Tucson AZ for a 3-4 weeks every year. I'm hoping that I can go for a week with her next winter.

We didn't go to outlets. They may not have been there when we were there in the 90's. I had a fantastic time.

My sister lives in Sedona. There are many beautiful resorts there. I am familiar with both L'Auberge and Amora, but I do not think you can go wrong with most resorts in the area. Trip Advisor is most helpful. It really depends on your budget.

The first one that came to my mind is Enchantment Resort in Sedona. The ones you mentioned are great too.

As far as the o/p, it depends...do you like being near water, the desert, etc?
