The facilities

There's always something going on at this luxury hotel - a programme of indoor and outdoor activities run throughout the day, ranging from fitness classes, hiking and biking programs and spa and beauty services to lectures and private consultations/workshops with the experts. A team of physicians, nurses, health practitioners, nutritionists and exercise physiologists are on hand to provide group and one-on-one support.

Get all round mind-body-spirit support on your own personal wellness programme (you are called before you arrive to arrange what you would like to get out of your stay). Canyon Ranch can help you achieve your own goals - be it to get fit, learn how to cook healthily or go on a canyon trail hike.

Reassuringly, the food at the luxury hotel's restaurant is not all wheatgrass shots and leaves for dinner. Instead, good food is cooked healthily to produce wholesome and balanced meals. There are even hot-fudge sundaes on the dessert menu.

The luxury hotel's 180 rooms are as spacious, comfortable and relaxing as you would expect from a top spa resort. The large beds come with down-stuffed pillows, plus satellite TV and internet connections are available. Some rooms have their own patios, and luxury rooms have kitchen facilities.
