spa resort

Pampered vacation destination

A spa resort is a destination combining lodging with therapeutic treatments—massages, facials, mineral baths, and wellness programs.

Unlike a day spa, guests stay overnight or longer, often in scenic locations chosen for natural hot springs or peaceful surroundings: We spent a week at a spa resort in Arizona.

The focus is relaxation and rejuvenation.
