Feeling the city stress and need a quick reset? I totally get it. These blissful spa getaways from New York City are just what you need to unplug, unwind, and soak in some pure relaxation. I’ve taken a few myself, and I can tell you, they’re the perfect antidote to city life.
Highlights:
- Luxury spa resorts in the Hudson Valley – If you’re craving luxury, the Hudson Valley has some incredible spa resorts. I’ve stayed at a few and loved the serene atmosphere, perfect for unwinding after a long week. You’ll be surrounded by nature and treated like royalty.
- Rejuvenating treatments in the Catskills and Berkshires – I highly recommend a trip to the Catskills or Berkshires for rejuvenating spa treatments. I’ve had everything from facials to body scrubs, and the mountain views while you relax just add to the experience.
- Hot stone massages and mineral spring soaks – If you’ve never had a hot stone massage, trust me, it’s a must. I had one last time I was away, and the relaxation it brought was next-level. Don’t forget to try a mineral spring soak—you’ll feel like you’re soaking your stress away.
- Peaceful yoga retreats and wellness escapes – When I’m in need of a reset, yoga retreats are my go-to. These peaceful escapes are ideal for calming the mind and recharging your body. Whether you’re a beginner or a pro, you’ll love the stillness and focus.
- Scenic drives to charming spa towns – The drive to a spa town is part of the experience. I love taking scenic routes, especially through the Hudson Valley, and then settling into one of these charming towns for a weekend of pampering. You’ll feel the tension melt away as soon as you arrive.
