Spas in New Mexico are as interesting as the state itself, with historic hot springs, luxury inns, resorts, and even a destination spa near ​Santa Fe. The state is rich in sunshine and natural beauty, while the living Native American culture infuses it with a deep sense of place. New Mexico spas tend to cluster around Santa Fe, the historic town that is the state's cultural center. See our picks for the best spas in the area below.

Ten Thousand Waves

Inspired by the great Japanese hot springs resorts, Ten Thousand Waves is just ten minutes from Santa Fe, but feels a world away. Enjoy your time in the private outdoor cedar tubs set among piñons and junipers, or hop into the co-ed Grand Bath, where only swimsuit bottoms are required. (Women may prefer the retreat to their own communal bath). There is massage and bodywork for excellent skin care, and a casual restaurant specializing in Japanese small plate dining called Izanami. Most people come here for the day, but there are 14 luxurious overnight suites designed in a soothing Japanese style.
