Sooth your soul and renew your spirit with the myriad of services offered at the Sagestone Spa. Relaxing scents such as lavender, ylang ylang, chamomile vanilla and citrus are used in combination with world-recognized massage and relaxation techniques.

Guests are encouraged to enjoy the natural beauty and adventure that surrounds St. George; whether it’s hiking Red Mountain, Bryce Canyon or in Zion National Park, biking, rock climbing, horseback riding, swimming or golfing, take advantage of all the great activities the area has to offer. After a full day of activity, be sure to indulge in the spa’s athletic activity massages and treatments.

Utilizing ancient Pueblo healing traditions, the SháNah Spa is a premier facility, nestled among the gorgeous Sangre de Cristo Mountains just outside Sante Fe. The desert sanctuary provides you with a relaxing vacation full of healing and rejuvenating spa treatments, healthy cuisine and authentic Native American surroundings.
SháNah means “vitality and energy” in Navajo, and that’s exactly what the spa offerings provide. Using time-honored traditions, remedies, herbs and teas, rich in healing and luxury, it’s a sanctuary where you can indulge your mind, body and spirit. Massages, cleansing, and body treatments are conducted using ancient and exhilarating rituals that have been practiced and perfected by some of the world’s best healers. You can even enjoy the treatments in a private outdoor garden.

When you are not being pampered with massage and skin treatments, indulge in on-site yoga, pilates, aerobics, whirlpools, and meditation. Consider spending reflection time at the authentic Native American Teepee and Watsu pool.

Staying at the Bishop’s Lodge, delight in ranch style adobe accommodations, within a historic building. There is a tranquil charm and relaxed elegance that surrounds the accommodations, from authentic Navajo rugs and artwork, to luxurious beds and earthy decoration. The on-site La Fuentes Restaurant offers healthy and seasonal fine dining in a traditional southwestern atmosphere. It’s a pleasurable place to indulge your body, mind and spirit.
