The lazy days of summer have been replaced with the amazing days of summer at Destination Spas. From paddle board classes at Lake Austin Spa Resort, to being up to your elbows in clay at Golden Door, and even sweet summer slumber after a visit to the Oaks at Ojai, make this summer sizzle with well-being lessons that will transcend the season.

With 24 locations from Phuket to Illinois from which to choose, all Destination Spa Group® members offer a complementary balance of fitness, healthy cuisine, life-enhancing programs and relaxing spa services.

“Hanging out on the couch is not an effective way to approach a summer of wellness,” said DSG Executive Director Debra Koerner. “From amazing fitness classes to one-of-a-kind theme weeks, Destination Spa offerings appeal to everyone who needs a little well-being and renewal. Plus, the lessons you learn will come in handy at home for seasons to come.”
