Relax in Style: 6 of Utah’s Best Luxury Spas
Utah is home to some of the best spas in the world to experience this wonderful this euphoria. Last winter, we visited six luxury spas (tough gig) in anticipation that folks like us would come out of yet another pandemic-tainted season needing a reason to disappear for a while.

Relax with Stunning Views
A large, heated outdoor pool treats guests to dips surrounded by breathtaking scenery at Snowpine Lodge. The lodge's Stillwell Spa has six treatment rooms along with a posh relaxation room and a serenely lit grotto replete with a plunge pool encased in granite walls. A yoga and fitness center add to the rejuvenating experience.
Serenity and Firearms
The Edge Spa at The Lodge at Blue Sky has some western twang to it, offering treatments accented with wild-harvested ingredients and a relaxation pool overlooking Alexander Creek. You can also book fly-fishing lessons, “natural horsemanship” classes or fire off shotguns on the sporting clay range.
Utah Staycation
The Grand America's Grand Spa offers deals and staycation packages for those of us yearning to go somewhere but who need to stay here. Book a spa treatment for $100 and afterward relax in the indoor and outdoor pools and lounge in the heart of Salt Lake City. Photo courtesy of Grand America.
Road Trip at Yonder
After 2020 wrecked even the best-laid travel plans, many of us learned to appreciate the simple pleasures of a good, old-fashioned road trip. Yonder Escalante, which opened in April near the sprawling rock formations of Bryce Canyon and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, is a cozy home base for your next desert adventure.
