Spa Announcement: Rancho La Puerta accepts SpaFinder Gift Certificates totaling $500 (or less) per person per visit, good only toward room rate. Certificates must be presented at time of initial reservation and are not redeemable after arrival at the resort.

When Rancho La Puerta was created in 1940, two grand oak trees met at the center of the property, forming the door-like archway that gave this destination spa its name. One of these trees still stands, surrounded by 3,000 acres of lush gardens, swimming pools, and cozy casitas, all watched over by mystical Mt. Kuchumaa. Located only 45 miles southeast of San Diego, just over the border into Mexico, the weather at this resort is always spectacular--warm and dry--so every week is the perfect week to visit. Rates here include all lodging, activities, meals, classes, programs, and scheduled transportation. Only spa services are optional extras.

Rancho La Puerta focuses on fitness, offering over 75 mind, body, spirit classes, including yoga, Pilates, tai chi, dance, water aerobics, and strength and flexibility training, as well as hiking along mountain ridges with spectacular views of the surrounding countryside. Guests can expect a week of movement as they walk on the spacious grounds between the 10 gyms, three pools, four tennis courts, a volleyball court, health centers, and dining room. Organic dining, thanks to the Ranch's bountiful organic farm on the premises, revitalizes and sustains guests for their entire stay. Evenings of dancing are offered in the Kuchumaa Gym. Spa treatments are many and varied, and all are very reasonably priced. Try the signature healing massage, the Golden Door facial, the herbal wrap, and many others--all customized to your wishes by a highly trained staff. Rancho La Puerta is ideal for a week of solo reflection and regeneration, and can also be a great vacation for an active couple or a group of friends. It especially appeals to hikers, nature-lovers, and exercisers of all abilities and interests.
