Winter is coming. It’s time to get well and it’s time to indulge. In case you’re looking for some tropical sunshine, here are three great spas in Mexico. You’re welcome.

Just another day getting cleansed by a witch in Mexico City

 

Rancho La Puerta – Tecate, Baja California

With 3,000 acres set in a valley just an hour’s drive from San Diego, the venerable Rancho La Puerta is one of the earliest eco spas and high on the list of great spas in Mexico. In true eco spirit, this family-run spa has been promoting sustainable practices for years. Organic gardens, adobe casitas, holistic treatments, an on-site waste treatment facility, natural lighting and “low-flow” toilets make this a solid eco choice. One of Mexico’s best-known spas, Rancho La Puerta has a long eco legacy, a history that goes back to 1940.

Ixtapan Spa Hotel and Golf Resort – Ixtapan de la Sal

The popular 4-star Ixtapan Spa Hotel and Golf Resort is found high in the Sierra Madre Mountains, which means temperatures are balmy rather than sweltering. It was voted one of the most affordable spas in the world, which makes it one of the great spas in Mexico if you’re on a budget. Located in the small town Ixtapan de la Sal it offers 220 rooms and tropical gardens.

One&Only Palmilla  Los Cabos

The has a lavish spa with 13 private treatment rooms in a refreshing flowery garden setting and a variety of treatments and packages that will leave your skin as soft as an enchilada. Try a Body Detox and Contour Journey, Super Active Repairing and Restoring Facial, or a Bastien Global Pedicure.  And of course it’s Los Cabos, how can you go wrong – a great destination and one of the great spas in Mexico.
