Tennis and croquet aren’t the only things going on in the Southern California warmth of Rancho Valencia. Because bodies in motion also benefit wildly from being bodies at rest, you must retreat to the spa (perhaps with friends? A perfect respite) and pick your pampering treat. True to title, treatments like the Eucalyptus Euphoria or the Drifting Dreamer will usher you into an altered state of unwind. If you have trouble choosing, Spa Director Susan O’Bryen and her staff will help. Her personal favorite: the 90-minute Tip-to-Toe, a full-body “fusion” that includes an hour massage as well as a scalp treatment and foot massage. “You come away so completely restored.” To savor your post-treatment serenity, retreat to the adults-only saltwater pool and select a lounge chair or a cabana and refuel with some Kahlua chicken salad or a Maine Lobster BLT.
Peter Pan (March 20 and 21) and Celebrate Balanchine (May 7 through 9) are among the notable performances scheduled for the City Ballet of San Diego this season. Don’t miss artistic director Steven Wistrich’s half-hour lecture before each show.
