Wellness destination Canyon Ranch has announced plans for new branded Canyon Ranch Wellness Retreats, with the first location due to open at the former Skylonda Ranch in California this summer. Nestled among the ancient Redwoods in Woodside, California, the brand's first retreat model will offer guests highly sensory, personalised wellness sojourns. The scenic property, settled above the famed Skyline Boulevard, will provide three-day, four-day, or seven-day retreats, with 14 guest rooms and 24 additional guest rooms in standalone luxury treehouses.
"This opening marks a critical moment in the history of Canyon Ranch, with our first property in California and the introduction of a new retreat-focused endeavor," said Susan Docherty, Canyon Ranch CEO. "The Global Wellness Institute reports the wellness industry is now a $4.2 trillion economy and wellness tourism is thriving at a 6.5% growth rate. This, coupled with trends pointing to travellers seeking shorter, more frequent, and highly experiential trips, offers a perfect opportunity to launch Canyon Ranch Wellness Retreats, providing guests an intentional, collective reset that embodies our philosophy."
Drawing upon 30 years of retreats at the Life Enhancement Center at the flagship resort in Tucson, Arizona, Canyon Ranch Wellness Retreat – Woodside will present wellness seekers with community-driven, introspective, and nature-infused experiences designed for rejuvenation and restoration, and complementing the offerings found at Canyon Ranch Wellness Resorts.
Guests will enjoy a curated programme with select activities, encompassing multiple themes including mind-body, joy, culinary, movement and wellness. Outdoor activities will include year-round hiking and biking adventures to nearby world-class trails. A nature trail and a challenging obstacle course are canopied by towering Redwoods.
The 16-acre retreat property, formerly Skylonda Lodge, will be redesigned by Cole Martinez Curtis & Associates. The new aesthetic will embrace the surrounding natural beauty and create connectivity with the outdoors throughout each space, developing a deeper sense of place.
The property features an indoor/outdoor training zone, a boutique spa, sauna, an indoor saline pool and whirlpool, and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the surrounding beauty from the expansive wraparound decks, labyrinth and grounds.
