Cal-a-Vie

Nestled in the rolling hills just outside of San Diego, Cal-a-Vie is regarded as the ultimate
luxury health spa. This magnificent 200 acre retreat is strikingly reminiscent of a small village in Southern France, and offers a balanced approach to vibrant health and well-being by combining the best of traditional and contemporary trends in fitness, nutrition and spa therapies.

Cal-a-Vie's menu of spa treatments includes beneficial therapies for women and men. Relaxing massages, Vichy showers, reflexology, Thalassotherapy, hydrotherapy and aromatherapy rejuvenate the body as well as the spirit. You will also enjoy anti-aging facials, hair and scalp treatments and hot stone pedicures in the salon.
A vigorous morning hike or walk starts the day that continues with a fitness program that tones, strengthens and builds endurance. Our two-story, 17,000 square-foot Pavilion offers three spacious exercise rooms for fitness classes; a separate room for cardiovascular equipment; a Pilates and Gyrotonics studio; a weight room with resistance and strength machines and free weights offers optimal fitness training. Meeting and recreation facilities are located on the ground floor. Yoga, meditation, tai chi and labyrinth walk in the afternoon leave you feeling relaxed and content.

Delicious and nourishing gourmet spa cuisine delights the palate as our chefs share the secrets of spa cookery during demonstrations in the kitchen. All meals are nutritionally balanced with fresh, natural whole foods that are seasoned to perfection.
Deluxe accommodations consist of 24 private and spacious Provençal inspired villas lavishly furnished with 18th century French antiques. Adding to your comfort and relaxation, the rooms are appointed with Frette bed linens as well as lush Frette robes and slippers. European style baths with luxurious Turkish towels complement each room. The villas are set in a peaceful environment of breathtaking views and splendid gardens of lavender, honeysuckle, jasmine and roses.
