Anytime is a good time for a girls’ weekend away; however, October is a particularly poignant time for some self care and bonding with your besties in observance of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Here we share some resorts and spas across the country using the opportunity to curate special experiences for guests while raising money and awareness for women’s health charities and healthy habits.

The Langham Huntington, Pasadena
The Langham Huntington, Pasadena will be fundraising with its Think Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, with 10 percent of proceeds from treatments at the Chuan Spa and ticket sales supporting City of Hope’s Women’s Cancer programs. The hotel’s Chuan Spa will host three complimentary wellness events in October, with donations to City of Hope suggested. Complimentary self-exam cards, available for women and men, will be available throughout October; guests may also scan a QR code at the spa reception to donate to City of Hope.
The Loma de Vida Spa at La Cantera Resort & Spa
La Cantera Resort & Spa, located just outside of San Antonio in Texas Hill Country, offers a 60-minute, locally crafted Raspberry Rose-infused sugar scrub treatment accompanied with a sparkling Rosé or pink mocktail. Guests can also add on a signature manicure or pedicure and a Knesko Rose Quartz Antioxidant Mask. A portion of sales from every treatment goes to WINGS, the only program of its kind in the country providing health care services to women with breast cancer. Also at the spa, Jamie O’Banion, founder and CEO of BeautyBio, will host a beauty secrets tell-all demonstration event on Oct. 8, with $5 from each admission benefitting WINGS.

The Don CeSar
Also known as the Pink Palace, The Don CeSar will host a Blossoms of Hope flower workshop in partnership with local company The Roaming Petal in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The Oct. 21 workshop, open to both guests and locals, aims to raise awareness about breast cancer while fostering creativity and spreading positivity through the art of floral design. A portion of the proceeds will go back to the Moffitt Cancer Center, located in Tampa. It’s the perfect add-on for an October girls’ getaway weekend at the on-site Spa Oceana, offering a Day of Indulgence experience for $465 per person.

Nov 21, 2024Immerse in an Invigorating Thermal Journey at Scandinave Spa Whistler
The glittering green pines and burst of jasmine lake beyond almost made me forget about the aches in my legs that slowly developed after the promised hour-long hike ran into the third hour. And, oh, there were my hips, showing up to remind me I was no longer in my 20s. I didn’t mind, though, because the vision that surrounded me during our guided walk through Garibaldi Park to Cheakamus Lake in Whistler, British Columbia, with Mountain Skills Academy and Adventures proved worthy of a thousand postcards.

Nov 20, 2024A Fusion of History and Modernity Makes Bangkok a Perfect Meeting Spot
In this city of contrasts, glass skyscrapers stand behind century- old temples. Street food vendors sling steaming noodles along roadways while tucked-away restaurants serve multicourse, Michelin-level cuisine. Roadways jam with cars as jewel-toned tuk tuks whizz through the gridlock. Long considered a tourist mecca, Bangkok also makes for a dynamic, budding location for corporate travelers.

Nov 19, 2024Explore the Beguiling Towns of Sicily’s Val di Noto
Best known to tourists for the boisterous chaos of Palermo, the views of Mount Etna from idyllic Taormina, and for that capricious volcano itself, Sicily has far more to draw travelers. In Sicily’s southeast corner, one region encapsulates the Sicilian spirit that has seen it through conquest and natural disasters, a region less well-known to tourists but one of the island’s most beautiful and fascinating.
