Destination: Relaxation
By Anne-Marie Cook


If you are looking to retreat to a peaceful oasis this summer–be it for a week, a day, or even just an hour–these world-class Santa Barbara spas might be just the ticket.

Bacara Resort & Spa
This hideaway on the Gaviota bluffs makes pampering an art form. While away the hours in an exclusive poolside cabana with ocean views and your own butler. When ready, dip into the Jacuzzi or saltwater spa pool, prior to your treatment. Within its 36 treatment rooms, Bacara’s therapists unveil myriad treatments to brighten, bronze, or renew your appearance, and restore your inner health. Afterwards, sup at the spa’s all-organic café for a truly memorable getaway.

Avia’s own exclusive product-line contributes to the feeling of personalized attention that you receive here. An eclectic mix of Eastern and Western influences—seamlessly combining Ayurvedic, Thai, Chinese, Japanese, and European traditions—offer a palette of healing treatment options to suit any taste.
