Golden Door Escondido
Golden Door – Escondido
Experience the extraordinary healing power of Golden Door. Amid the rolling hills and citrus groves of San Diego County, founder Deborah Szekely developed a unique philosophy of personal health and fitness – little knowing she was about to start a revolution that resulted in the birth of an entire industry. Szekely and her husband managed a modest retreat known as “Rancho La Puerta” – or “The Door” in Spanish” – which grew from a “bring-your-own-tent” health farm to a beautiful, Spanish-style adobe resort. Eventually, in response to requests from guests for a higher level of luxury, Deborah opened a new property in 1958 that combined intensive training in personal health with gracious hospitality, inspired by the ancient Honjin inns of Japan. As the source of inspiration for the rest of our luxury spa retreat portfolio – from our mountain-cradled Colorado destination spa resort at The Peaks to our vibrant Caribbean property along the Puerto Rican coast at El Conquistador & Las Casitas Village – Golden Door offers a rare approach to restoring well-being. Journey through the fabled doors of one of our premier luxury spas, and discover an inspired combination of features, including:
* Ancient Asian influences, offering gracious hospitality within a quiet sanctuary
* Environmental inspirations, taken from each individual location and beautifully weaved throughout the architecture and design of spa treatments
* Classic European spa techniques, featuring well-trained, professional staff and the most luxurious and indulgent of therapies

Bacara
Bacara Spa
“Sea. Sky. Golden days. Enchanted nights. Spanish Colonial warmth. Old Hollywood glamour, new California dreaming. There was a time when getting away for a few days and coming back looking rested, rejuvenated and renewed wasn’t considered an indulgence but a necessity. A time when afternoons were whiled away by the sea, under wide skies, warmed by the sun. Playing a game of croquet. Sipping a glass of chilled rosé. With clever friends. In good company. The feeling was completely informal and it was in precisely that very relaxed attitude that the luxury lay. This is the essence of Bacara: Elegance, understatement, complete serenity.
The Spa at Bacara
Peel. Polish. Tighten. Tone. Relax. Renew. The ultimate in indulgence and rejuvenation. 42,000 square feet completely dedicated to refreshing and reviving you. 36 individual treatment rooms, Private sunbathing with breathtaking ocean views, Open air or indoor massage
