Feel the comfort of a home away from home - but with ten times the decadence. Voted one of the top 55 spas in Condé Nast Traveler in 2007, the Spa at Torrey Pines, which was designed based on the homes of two craftsmen from the early 1900s, literally feels like a cozy house, with its brick masonry, heavy rugs and Art Nouveau prints. There's an incredible oceanfront setting here, with forests all around that provide the natural flavor for many of the treatments here. In addition to the 14 treatment rooms, designed according to the principles of Feng Shui, the Spa has separate men's and women's lounges, dry saunas, herbal-infused steam rooms, and aromatherapy inhalation rooms. Guests can enjoy everything from balneotherapy baths, to body scrubs and anti-aging facials, or choose a combo of all 3. The sense of relaxation is increased further with the Five Diamond rooms, and the provided amenities that include a grand-scale pool, whirlpool, and much more.

Located in a resort town on the Southern California coast, the Spa is 6.5 acres of treatment delight. The soothing marine-based and botanical-based products from Phytomer are central to the treatments here, and there's an extensive menu of treatments available, including therapeutic and stone massages, facials, body wraps, and Vichy showers. The Signature Treatment here is the Coastal Sage Scrub, which blends a detoxifying mixture of sage and lemongrass, followed by a luxurious Vichy shower. Or if you prefer, reconnect with the ancients through one of the authentic rituals such as the Ancient Oceans Ritual, Personalized Aromasoul Ritual, or Napa Valley Ritual. Don't know what to choose? You can't go wrong with the Hydrotherapy treatments which are proven to assist in improving blood flow and perspiration, and stimulating breathing patterns with hydro jet treatment zones and multi-head air injectors, while giving an all-over massage. While here, be sure to take advantage of the great outdoors with the daily guided nature walks through the Torrey Pines State Reserve.
