Guide: 5 Must-Hit Spa Escapes In Alberta

Well, winter’s here (kind of) and it has us feeling a little tense. We definitely need some R&R to make up for the early cold temps, so we’re probably going to be hitting the spa before the month is up. Keep reading for all the must-hit spots for maximum rejuvenation!

Kananaskis Nordic Spa

We’ve got two words to describe the Nordic Spa: alpine sanctuary. Sounds pretty good, eh? They’re all about “facing the elements” here, but this experience couldn’t be farther from roughing it. From the massage services, to the Eucalyptus steam cabin, to the state-of-the-art saunas, this place has the whole relaxation game down pat.

Where: 1 Centennial Dr, Kananaskis
When: Monday – Sunday, 9 AM – 9 PM
Cost: $70 Daily Rate

My Oasis Spa Calgary

If you’re looking to stay in the city, My Oasis is a great option to get therapeutic massages, mani/pedis, energy balancing treatments, and more. It’s high quality but won’t break the bank, so head here for some feel-good vibes without the guilt-inducing prices.

Where: 880 16 Ave SW
When: Monday – Sunday, 8:30 AM – 7:30 PM Mon-Wed, Sat; 8:30 AM – 9 PM Thur-Fri; 9 AM – 5 PM Sun

Solara Resort & Spa

The award-winning Solara Resort is a great place to treat yo’ self. It’s luxurious, warm, and nestled right in the mountains, so there’s really no way you could have a bad time. We recommend their cupping treatment to release tension (and for some really B.A. bruises), or the ReVersive Anti-Aging Facial if you want to look extra fresh!

Where: 187 Kananaskis Way, Canmore
When: Monday – Sunday, 6 AM – 8 PM Mon-Fri; 7 AM – 7 PM Sat-Sun
Cost: $50 Wellness Day Pass

Heartwood Inn & Spa

Turns out Drumheller’s not just a hotspot for fossils, it’s also perfect for a quick spa getaway! The Heartwood Inn specializes in Swedish Relaxation Massage Treatments, as well as HQ manis, pedis, and re-hydration sessions, so the 1.5-hour roadie is more than worth the reward.

Where: 320 North Railway Avenue East, Drumheller
When: Monday – Sunday, 8 AM – 11 PM
Cost: Varies By Service

Willow Stream Spa

We all know the Fairmont Banff Springs is a good time, but many of us haven’t explored the amazing Willow Stream Spa that is hidden right inside the resort. They have pulsating waterfalls, a mineral pool, and an extensive services menu that will definitely help you detox.

Where: 405 Spray Avenue, Banff
When: Monday – Sunday, 6 AM – 10 PM
Cost: Varies By Service

If you make your way through this list, we’re pretty sure you might become the most zen person alive… so spa carefully, everybody, and make sure you tag us in all your calming Instas!
