So, summer is over…which means no more incredible vacations, right? We don’t quite think so. Because you deserve to pamper yourself year-round, we scoured the states for the best (and prettiest) hotel spas and wellness centers. From the coast of Maine to the desert of Utah, these relaxation destinations stand out above the rest. Here, five incredible spas to add to your end-of-the-year travel bucket list.
The Tree Spa
Pampering on the ground is so overrated. At Hidden Pond Resort in Kennebunkport, Maine, guests can indulge in a number of restorative treatments eight feet above the Earth’s floor. Nestled in the woods, three treetop spa rooms are connected by a catwalk that weaves through the trees. Topping off the resort’s eco-friendly approach to relaxation, many of The Tree Spa’s treatments incorporate ingredients picked fresh from Hidden Pond’s gardens, like rosemary, mint, and lavender. It suffices to say that this spa space takes tranquility to totally new heights.

Amangiri
Offering an otherworldly spa experience, this Utah retreat is inspired by the healing traditions of the Navajo that focus on the four elements of earth, wind, fire, and water. There are many soothing spots to fall in love with at this oasis—from the dreamy steam rooms to an airy yoga pavilion—, but we can’t help awe over this stone-lined step pool with desert views. Deep contemplation comes easy in this temperature controlled swimming hole.

Two Bunch Palms
While Palm Springs is, of course, famed for its luxe spas and resorts, this wellness getaway reigns high on the area’s must-visit list. Renowned for their healing treatments, Two Bunch Palms not only boasts a celebrated crew of leading healers, therapists, and aestheticians, but also an abundance of river rock alcoves, outdoor showers and gazebos, and Watsu pools. Before the holidays begin, enhance your mood and free your mind at Two Bunch Palms.

Waldorf Astoria Chicago
Windy City residents seeking a close-to-home escape can hideaway for a long weekend at the Waldorf Astoria’s Spa and Health Club. The urban sanctuary offers an array of packages and individual experiences, so whether you’re craving a full day of indulgence or a simple pedicure, you can feel your best this fall. Set in a heavenly whitewashed room, the spa’s mosaic tiled pool makes for one peaceful dip.

Montage Deer Valley
Come winter, embrace the chill with a long day on the slopes and a post-ski spa sesh at Spa Montage in Deer Valley. The 35,000 square-foot holistic retreat channels the serenity of the mountain living in their health and renewal program. Opt for a couple’s bath treatment and sink deep into their copper tubs for their Mountain Therapeutic Soak by the fire.
