The 17 Best Spas in Los Angeles for Relaxation and Rejuvenation

1. Conrad Los Angeles

• Location: DTLA
• Best for: high-tech recovery
• Pricing: infrared sauna starts at $45; quantum harmonic therapy from $75

We love heading to this Frank Gehry designed building that looks out over his Music Center masterpiece while dining at several restaurant concepts from award-winning humanitarian Jose Andres, but the real treat is heading down to the high-tech spa. Here, guests can power up or down with an array of wellness therapies and the completely innovative recovery cabins that feature treatments like LED light therapy, Normatec compression therapy (where sleeves of dynamic air compression massage extremities for better recovery from travel or sports) infrared recovery mat and Quantum harmonic therapy (where headphones play soothing sounds to put you in a hypnotic state). Pick an integrated circuit and relax in the infrared sauna or “chill lounge” in between sessions. They also do massages and top notch facials, and have a well-stocked shop with cutting-edge products, jewelry and a complimentary tea bar.

2. Milk + Honey Spa

• Location: Brentwood
• Best for: Medispa
• Pricing: manicure starts at $25; dermaplaning at $135; day retreats from $410

This serene day spa located in Brentwood (with another location in Culver City) is an under-the-radar neighborhood find. The white-hued lounge will remind you of your cool friend's living room in Malibu, while you wait for a rejuvenating sports massage, luxe facial or pristine nail treatment, but the move here is the Medical Aesthetics. Milk + Honey is known for their gentle and natural looking treatments, including injectables, fillers, peels, dermaplaning, microneedling, photofacials, laser and more at the hands of highly skilled Nurse Practitioner Melanie Torres.

3. Hotel Bel-Air

• Location: Bel-Air
• Best for: luxury facials
• Pricing: facials start at $275; signature massages from $250

Just walking onto the bucolic grounds, past the pond with floating swans, of this iconic hotel in the hills off Bel Air is a relaxing experience in itself. Take it to another level with the Signature Valmont facial, vitality of the stars, which will set you back $1,000 for 90 minutes of bliss. This luxury beauty treatment is exclusive to the property spa and features bespoke massage techniques designed to clear and detoxify, while Valmont’s cellular collagen masks for the face, eyes, neck and décolleté will renew and restore your complexion. LED and microcurrent technology lifts and defines the contours of the face to add an effective finishing touch to this results-driven facial. The treatment concludes with a relaxing and deeply hydrating hand and foot treatment.

4. Beverly Wilshire

• Location: Beverly Hills
• Best for: full body treatments
• Pricing: body treatments start at $295; facials start at $350

The hotel made world-famous by Pretty Women now has enough cutting-edge treatment options in the Forbes Five-Star spa to keep any A-lister happy. Some of our favorites include the new Holistic Detox Body Treatment that cocoons your whole body with Italian skincare brand Seed to Skin in a deeply detoxifying, nourishing and uplifting wellness journey that also includes a facial. We're also fans of the LightStim LED Bed which delivers multiple wavelengths of gentle therapeutic red and infrared light to soothe, restore, and invigorate (this one is especially good for arthritis pain and muscle aches). You can also re-energize and balance your mind with the new California Radiance body treatment including a special blend of aromatherapy oils.

5. Beverly Hills Hotel

• Location: Beverly Hills
• Best for: massage table
• Pricing: reflexology starts at $165; body peel & wrap $365

The legendary “Pink Palace” on Sunset Blvd. has a chic yet low-key spa designed by renowned Alexandra Champalimaud. The space offers massages, facials, nail appointments and long-awaited pampering to the public (unlike the iconic pool cabanas which are for hotel guests only). What is so revolutionary is the new massage beds that adjust for comfort on your um, more well-endowed body parts. So if you've ever had your boobs squished while laying on your stomach during that all important back massage, this table makes a space there for comfort. Genius. The citrus garden awaits for relaxation pre or post-treatments and you can always order a snack or smoothie from the famous coffee shop where a celeb seems to always be at the counter.

6. Surya Spa

• Location: Santa Monica
• Best for: A fully immersive Ayurvedic massage
• Pricing: signature massage starts at $325; body scrub from $375; chakra balancing $650

Simply put, we've never experienced a massage quite like Surya's Signature Abhyanga “four-handed” treatment before or since. The 60-minute massage involves not one, but two masseuses, who work in tandem to release any aches from your muscles and joints. Afterwards, you're bathed in the glow of chakra-balancing crystal lights and guided through a deep meditation, and just as you're about to float into another dimension, the session ends with Shirodhara, a traditional Aryuvedic healing treatment where a stream of warm oil is drizzled gently over your forehead until your mind melts into a puddle of bliss. In addition to the therapeutic massages, you can also book sound bath therapy and pre- and post-natal treatments.

7. Peninsula Spa

• Location: Beverly Hills
• Best for: Geneo facial
• Pricing: signature massage starts at $325; body scrub from $375; chakra balancing $650

The seven treatment rooms at The Peninsula Spa are soothingly illuminated by soft back-lit capiz shell wall panels where guests can listen to their own music playlists while slipping into a heated robe. Before or after the pink Himalayan salt dry saunas, try the new 60-minute Geneo 3-in-1 facial which is the only skin-activated facial designed to unlock the skin’s natural ability to oxygenate and rejuvenate from within. Only offered at select locations, The Peninsula Beverly Hills is one of the few to offer this service that will have you shining like a star before an occasion or event. This ultimate, non-invasive service provides immediate, long-lasting results with no downtime and will have you glowing in just three innovative steps: oxygenation, gentle exfoliation and nourishment. They also offer a 24K gold age-defying facial and MBR® Best & Ultimate Liquid Surgery Rejuvenation Facial. Plus, the spa has a new partnership with Swiss brand Margy’s Monte Carlo (the first in the U.S.) for additional anti-aging facial options, including mini-treatments poolside for the warmer months.

8. Waldorf Astoria

• Pricing: La Prairie facials start at $250; wellness cabana compression boots at $65

The Waldorf Astoria La Prairie Spa (aka the brand with a long list of celebrity fans from Angelina Jolie to Victoria Beckham) is rooted in a more holistic and relaxing approach to beauty, which fits in well with the calming aesthetic of the spa. Get your glow on from within right before awards season on the rooftop pool of the hotel, where you will find the new supervised wellness recovery cabanas with an infrared sauna, cold plunge tub, compression treatments and meditation which you can book through the spa. (While you are up there, order a signature ginger margarita from The Rooftop by JG.) Add to this line-up a La Prairie Radiance facial that uses a 24k gold mask that leaves the skin luminous. For guests attending a special occasion or celebrity soiree, the spa is operating in high-gear with the perfect brows and hair color to boot.

The spa channels fundamental energy through frequency waves in a selection of treatments designed to enliven your skin, restore your muscles and soothe your spirit. They also offer a 90-minute Hydrafacial, which is a non-invasive, non-surgical, anti-aging procedure that uses LED light therapy, gentle hydra-exfoliation, vortex extraction and a hydrating hyaluronic acid infusion-including lymphatic drainage. Luxe spa amenities include a Himalayan salt room, experiential rain-fall showers and a samarium for air oxidation, so relax and stay awhile.

10. Sea Wellness Spa

• Location: Santa Monica
• Best for: beach-friendly location
• Pricing: facials from $225; massages from $220

Located right at the beach in Santa Monica at Hotel Casa del Mar, this eco-friendly spa with beautiful wood accents, features anti-aging and hydrating skincare treatments, such as the famous Hydrafacial, and full-on body de-stressers like hot stone massage therapy.

11. Four Seasons

• Location: Los Angeles
• Best for: chakra rebalancing
• Pricing: gentlemen’s facial starts at $395; liquid surgery is $1,000

With so many high-profile events taking place on this property, especially around awards season, this spa is always updating its offerings. The latest and greatest comes in the form of a Knesko Skin GEMCLINICAL facial which re-balances chakra energies throughout the body while addressing all of those pesky concerns – whether you are looking for ‘connection’ or ‘protection’. This is a treatment that harnesses the holistic and natural healing powers of gemstones and Reiki energy – and what’s not to love about that? Other treatment options include the Garden Zen Body Renewal Treatment, Marine Algae Body Detox Treatment, Toning and Firming Body Sculpt Treatment, MBR Gentleman’s Facial, and re-emergence of MBR Liquid Surgery Facial so every body part is covered. To that end, celebrity vegan chef Matthew Kenney has just opened his Plant Food + Wine concept right by the spa and upper pool deck for an all-day treat pre-or-post treatments. And, you do not want to miss the famed raw heirloom tomato and zucchini lasagna with pistachio pesto and macadamia ricotta.

12. Biologique Recherche

• Location: West Hollywood
• Best for: couples
• Pricing: scalp treatments start at $200; skin lab consult from $50

This new import from the highly-regarded, family-owned, four-decade deep skincare company Biologique Recherche of France adds a bit of European-flair to the self-care scene. The serene two-story Maison space has an already highly coveted Blue Room, tucked away in the back on the second floor, which is a couple’s room with a private side entrance for VIPs. Here you can indulge in bespoke facials but be sure to have a computerized consultation with the Skin Instant© Labto and reveal your beauty DNA first. They also do hand, foot and scalp treatments, plus full body massages.

13. Den Mother

• Location: Venice
• Best for: recharging after your treatment
• Pricing: foot soak and neck massage start at $ 85; hot-cold therapy treatments from $85

Tucked away behind Den Mother’s front porch and Zen crystal shop on Abbot Kinney Blvd, lies a back garden oasis for an outdoor coconut milk foot soak and neck massage. In this serene spot you will also find a cold plunge and cedar sauna for hot-cold Scandinavian therapy which all the rage in LA right now. There are also a handful of private in-door treatment rooms for full-body massage, and if you want to add acupuncture or reflexology, no problem, this spot is rooted in traditional Chinese Medicine rituals. What’s even better is you can linger before or after in the back by the elixir tea bar or out front with an added parquet dining area that serves a plant-based menu by The Butcher’s Daughter next door. If you need something stronger than tea or matcha, Japanese sake, beer, whiskey and natural wines are also on the menu. For a nibble, don’t miss the house-made potato chips with wasabi avocado aioli dip topped with Furikake seasoning.

1209 Abbot Kinney Blvd. Venice

14. IntoMeSea

• Location: Santa Monica
• Best for: floatation tank
• Pricing: salt chambers start at $33; floatation suits start at $88

David Hertz is the award-winning environmental architect and developer of the SkySource skywater machine, a contraption that creates up to 300 gallons of water from the atmosphere per day. One of these machines was installed in IntoMeSea to provide filtered water throughout the building. The first order of business is to disconnect with Flotation Meditation (what used to be known as a sensory deprivation tank) in one of the three private suites with tanks filled with skin temperature, Epsom salt rich water (the tanks boast more salt than the Dead Sea!). They also have a ‘soak’ option with hand carved white quartz crystal soaking tubs for intention setting and energetic healing. Feeling blue? Try light therapy with Lucia N°03 Lights featuring sequenced flashing white lights accompanied by solfeggio tones or a personally chosen soundtrack in order to induce a hypnagogic state in the brain between wakefulness and sleep. The end result is a state of joy, compassion and inner peace. For the finale, go sweat in the Infrared Sauna or hit the salt chamber.

1812 Lincoln Blvd., Santa Monica

15. Tomoko Spa

• Location: Beverly Hills
• Best for: a Japanese spa experience
• Pricing: massages start at $350; couples treatments begin at $1,000

Completely under the radar, yet off a bustling Beverly Hills Street, Tomoko Spa feels like you are at a Ryokan in Japan right down to the no shoes policy and Zen vibe. Fans include Gwyneth Paltrow to Charlize Theron and Drew Barrymore, after all. The gracious staff pour ginger tea from a traditional iron Japanese tea pot in the waiting room – but you will have tea at every step of the way, before, during and after your treatment which starts with an elaborate foot soak and a massage that hits all the right pressure points. We recommend booking the full-body “Japanese Experience” couples massage with a hot stone sake enhancement that will leave you feeling completely relaxed before the deep wooden tub soak at the end, followed by a delicate sushi meal in your robe.

141 S Beverly Dr, Beverly Hills

16. Bamford Wellness Spa

• Location: West Hollywood
• Best for: U.K. Import
• Pricing: sound bath therapy starts at $295; Red Carpet facial $525

Located in the 1 Hotel West Hollywood, this holistic concept was originally developed by U.K. wellness guru Carole Bamford in the English countryside. The spa is devoted to nurturing the mind, body and spirit via a heartfelt connection with nature, which you feel from the moment you walk into the hotel lobby with neutral linen sofas, natural woods and plants as the focal décor. The five treatment rooms use exclusive products from the Bamford body and skincare lines featuring natural and organic certified ingredients. The signature treatments begin with an Epsom salt food bath, and use targeted ancient techniques, such as a cold pink Himalayan stone, to address skin health and relax the mind from the outside. The Red Carpet facial combines cryo-therapy with a Gua Sha jade tool to support lymphatic flow, reduced puffiness and sculpt so you can hit those angles in your IG stories. You can add enhancements from a Knesko collagen gel mask and redlight therapy if you choose but whatever you do, enjoy the infrared pulsed electromagnetic mats, which you can lie on during a treatment, to reduce stress and sleep like a baby. When you are done, grab a healthy smoothie and relax out by the foliage-lined Pool Lounge nearby to soak up a bit more sun and nature.

17. Spa Calamigos

• Location: Malibu
• Best for: a massage in nature
• Pricing: reiki $205; In the Wild Massage starts at $250

Tucked away in the Santa Monica Mountains above Malibu, the rustic-chic Calamigos Guest Ranch and Beach Club hotel is famous for weddings and top filming locations (remember The Biggest Loser?) With a large pool and several dining options on the grounds, you might not realize there is an impressive spa in the back beyond the old archery lawn. This is a true mind, body and soul escape offering reiki healing sessions and a state-of-the art HydraFacial machine, but the showstopper is an “in the wild’ outdoor massage (be sure to add CBD enhancement) amid the rolling vineyards. And, in case you were wondering, Malibu produces some pretty good wines too. Another perk, after your treatments, is that you can take the free-shuttle down to the hotels’ beach club on the sand and even non-guests can buy a day pass.
