6. Rancho Valencia Resort and Spa in California
Looking for a slice of paradise in North San Diego? Let me introduce you to Rancho Valencia. This isn’t your typical luxury resort – it’s a 45-acre sanctuary where every detail has been carefully considered. After a $30 million renovation, each of the 49 hacienda-style suites now features hand-painted tiles that tell their own story. The tennis program here is legendary, and the spa? It’s the kind of place where time seems to stand still.
