Framed by a scenic desert backdrop, the world-class Golden Door Spa weaves Native American and Asian influences together for an enlightening experience.
Contemplation, restoration and renewed energy channel through the air of the glorious Golden Door Spa at The Boulders Resort in the aptly named town of Carefree, Arizona. Injected with Native American influences like rounded corners and kiva ceilings, the style alludes to the Japanese flair of the first Golden Door location in Escondido, California. The spa’s energetic west wing hides a octagonal yoga studio, fitness center and spa cafe while the tranquil east wing offers 24 spacious treatment rooms, a tea room spilling with natural light and huge Niwas (AKA, locker rooms) for men and women. Each Niwa features lavish snail showers, relaxation areas and Japanese O’furo baths. And outdoors, a labyrinth, meditation Tipi, affirmation rock and organic garden are among the reflective amenities unique to this property.
And don’t forget to pop into the spa boutique before you leave. There, you’ll find the Golden Door skincare line along with other top beauty brands (not the overrated, overpriced kind), yoga and spa apparel, jewelry and unique gift items.
