When you’re ready to swap those wine glasses for some spa bliss, these six must-visit Sonoma spas will take you from ‘oh so tired’ to ‘oh so pampered’ in no time. Get ready to rediscover the joy of relaxation.
Kenwood Inn and Spa is a dreamy Mediterranean-style hideaway in the heart of the Sonoma Valley. Tucked into a hillside overlooking expansive vineyards in Kenwood, it’s the perfect place to get away from it all. Do yourself a favor by booking the Valley of the Moon Massage, where specific massage and aromatherapy oils are chosen for your needs. If you’re in desperate need of some R&R (aren’t we all?), opt for the Ultimate Bliss Massage, a two-hour treatment that lives up to its name by targeting problem areas and specific aches to rejuvenate your body and mind. No matter which treatment you choose, be sure to make time to enjoy one of the heated pools—a cherry on top of your day of indulgence.

No trip to the gorgeous Sonoma Coast is complete without a visit to The Spa at Bodega Bay Lodge—it’s like a little slice of heaven for your body. Situated overlooking the ocean, it’s only natural that The Spa offers the unique Ocean Shell Massage, where the heat and cooling shells provide relief from joint and muscle pain as well as deep relaxation. Keeping it coastal-themed, they’ve also got a Sea Enzyme Facial that’s a game-changer for your skin, with seaweed enzymes, green tea, and some Pacific Ocean clay magic. Of course, in true Wine Country style, there’s the Cabernet Grape Seed Scrub, sure to get your skin feeling all kinds of fresh. And, if you’re staying at the Lodge, they can even bring the bliss right to your room!

The Fairmont Spa at the Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn isn’t just any old spa. It’s perched right on top of ancient mineral springs that have been a big deal for healing since the First Peoples. Imagine chilling in not one, but five different springs, indoors and outdoors, with just the right temps. It’s the ultimate unwind spot after a weekend of swirling wine glasses. Kick off your experience by slipping on a cozy robe and slippers and padding off to a Salt Stone Massage, which uses a blend of Swedish techniques and a Himalayan salt stone scrub to replenish the skin’s minerals and balances ions. The Gold Vine Facial should be up next, which utilizes Grenache and Syrah grape seeds (grown in the Rhône Valley) to help hydrate the skin. Finish off this blissful day by pondering your in-spa Tarot Card or Chakra Reading while soaking in one of the thermal baths. What could be better?

If you’re all in for a spa day that turns into a spa adventure, then Osmosis Day Spa Sanctuary is your dream spot. This Japanese-inspired haven in Freestone isn’t just about the treatments (which are amazing, by the way); it’s about immersing yourself in a serene, Zen-like world. Here, you can take a leisurely stroll through the five-acre property’s meditation garden, or find your zen in a private pagoda—talk about keeping that floaty post-massage feeling going! Also unique to Osmosis Day Spa Sanctuary is their therapeutic Cedar Enzyme Bath. Sink into a tub of fragrant ground cedar and rice bran, along with living enzymes, that work to improve circulation, relieve muscle and joint pain, and cleanse the skin. Yes, please.

The Spa at Montage is like stepping into a nature-infused sanctuary, right on the cusp of Healdsburg. This place is huge—we’re talking 11,500 square feet of pure spa bliss. Equally impressive is the extensive service menu, featuring a mix of the latest spa technologies and natural healing methodologies. Consider pampering your skin with The Masterpiece Ritual facial, which infuses the power of oxygen to fight aging on a cellular level. Or, for something a little different, check out their CBD Recovery Massage, perfect for balancing the mind and body. Of course, there’s more to this spa than just great treatments. They’ve got a fully equipped fitness center, a yoga garden tucked away among the Cabernet vines (yes, you read that right), a fancy salon, and a boutique. And if you’re into lounging poolside, their zero-edge swimming pool is the perfect end to a memorable spa day.

Even if you’re not staying at The Lodge at Sonoma Renaissance Resort, their Spa is a must-visit when you’re in the city of Sonoma.

We’d suggest beginning with a visit to the barrel sauna to open your senses. Next, try the Celestial Renewal Body Ritual for a blissful and transformative treatment, complete with body scrub, heated herbal poultices, and a CBD massage. Or go for the Himalayan Salt Stone Massage—it’s like a nutrient boost for your skin and the ultimate muscle relaxer. Visiting with a group? Book a SPA’rty and add a Champagne toast to start the day; you’ll also receive sweet deals on treatment add-ons. If nothing else, pop in to their Spa Boutique to grab some local favorite products to bring home.
