Tucked within Park Hyatt Aviara – located in San Diego’s North County coastal town of Carlsbad – the resort’s onsite Aviara Spa offers a serene wellness retreat surrounded by lush landscaping and natural beauty. A soothing palette of buttery yellow, creamy alabaster, pale blue and celadon green are used throughout the spa along with elements of Spanish colonial architecture.
Treatment rooms are named after fragrant herbs and flowers such as lavender, juniper and honeysuckle. Some of the rooms overlook private gardens planted with their namesake floras. The nature-inspired motif continues in a light-filled solarium, in which orchids, topiaries and other potted plants complete the tranquil scene.
