Becoming a member at a nearby resort can ensure your commitment to a regular wellness routine. You’ll schedule time for yourself when you know you’ve already paid for it, and we all can use at least a day a month to decompress. There are a few places in Orange County that offer access and more spots within an hour’s drive. Take advantage of five-star spas, award-winning golf courses, dozens of yoga and fitness classes, and many discounts without having to pack more than your swimsuit at one of these five nearby options.
Sycamore Spa by Hudson at The Ranch Laguna Beach: A monthly relaxation massage or custom facial, a glass of Champagne, free valet parking, discounts on treatments, and an afternoon pool pass are all yours with membership at Sycamore Spa. There’s also an infrared sauna to take advantage of. Drive into the canyon and lose track of time for the day as you are pampered in the serene setting filled with wildlife and wonderful trees. Outdoor treatment areas—available when the weather permits—are a special treat, as you’ll hear the birds chirp and the fountain gurgle during your massage. Stay on property afterward and have a bite at Harvest restaurant, The Porch outdoor patio, or head across Coast Highway to the beach to get the tuna poke bowl or shrimp roll from Lost Pier Café. 949-715-1393
