Almonte Spa, Mill Valley
Marin County seems to offer countless opportunities for beauty, health and wellness. But if one has to choose only one place to go for the most relaxing, on-brand-for-Marin experience, Almonte Spa is it.
Tucked neatly into the idyllic, soul-soothing expanse of redwoods in Tamalpais Valley, this all-inclusive gem of a spa lies only eight miles away from iconic Muir Woods. Something about the energy of Almonte Spa is synonymous with wellness, and the beauty of the surrounding nature and the exceptional vibes of the staff have a lot to do with it. Oh, and the crystals, of course. So. Many. Crystals.
Locals who seek to experience the bliss of Almonte Spa are in for a triple-threat treatment including an outdoor hot tub, a massage and a sauna—infrared or otherwise. Almonte Spa is Marin County’s only location where customers can indulge in all three quintessential health-and-wellness staples in one seamless experience.
Upon arriving at Almonte, one is greeted warmly and then sent to take a quick rinse in the outdoor shower before slipping into one of the two outdoor spas. There, the experience begins with a long soak out underneath the redwoods and the open sky. Once all worries have been properly soaked away, customers are beckoned to a massage so good it could change one’s life … or at least set a new standard for what a massage should feel like. After that, it’s time to sweat it all out in either the classic cedarwood sauna or the high-tech infrared sauna that looks more futuristic than most spaceships.
For nearly 50 years, Almonte Spa has soothed the stress and worries out of Marin County’s residents. And with any luck, these services will be available for at least 50 more. So, come on out to soak, massage and sweat.
