The World’s Most Bucket-List Worthy Spas
f you’ve been craving that kind of reset, these bucket-list spas around the world aren’t just beautiful — they’re transformative.
Here are a few that truly stand out.
1. Amanemu – Japan
Located in the Ise-Shima National Park region of Japan, Amanemu is built around natural hot springs (onsen culture is deeply rooted in Japanese wellness traditions).
Think:
Private soaking tubs overlooking the water
Minimalist design that instantly calms your nervous system
Forest air and absolute stillness
This is not a flashy spa experience.
It’s quiet. Intentional. Grounded.
Perfect for: solo reflection, mother-daughter reset, or a deep personal pause.
2. SHA Wellness Clinic – Spain
If you want structure with your serenity, SHA Wellness Clinic blends luxury with medical-grade wellness.
Here you’ll find:
Personalized nutrition programs
Detox and anti-inflammatory menus
Hydrotherapy circuits

It’s less “spa weekend” and more “full reset.”

Yes, the lagoon is iconic — but the Retreat at the Blue Lagoon is something else entirely.
The Retreat at Blue Lagoon Iceland offers private lagoon access, in-water massages, and spa rituals built around geothermal seawater.
Think:
Floating in mineral-rich warmth
Lava landscapes
Nordic calm
Perfect for: pairing with an Iceland adventure (this would be beautiful woven into a WildHer group trip, honestly).
5. Six Senses Zighy Bay – Oman
Hidden between mountains and the sea, Six Senses Zighy Bay feels wildly remote — in the best way.
You can even paraglide into the resort if you’re feeling bold.
The spa focuses on:
Holistic wellness
Sleep programs
Traditional hammam experiences
Sustainability-forward luxury
Perfect for: adventurous women who want both thrill and restoration.
Why a Spa Trip Isn’t “Extra”
Women carry so much.
Work. Family. Emotional labor. Logistics. Planning everything.
A true spa retreat isn’t indulgent — it’s recalibrating.
It’s choosing:
Slower mornings
Nourishing meals
Silence
Care
And honestly? You don’t have to wait for burnout to book it.
If one of these is calling your name, I can help design the trip around it — flights, transfers, add-on adventures, or even pairing it with a girls’ getaway or mother-daughter experience.
You deserve trips that restore you — not just exhaust you. Message me when you’re ready.
