What's Special About La Costa Resort:
La Costa Resort was the first destination spa in America when it originally opened in 1965. A recent multi-million dollar renovation brought the resort back to the top of its game. New restaurants include BlueFire Grill, which serves original, coastal cuisine inside or out next to the blue flame of its name. Legends, overlooking the golf course, has sunset happy hour and lobster and prime rib specials. The resort caters equally well to spa seekers, golf and tennis aficionados, and children.
Insider Tips:
- Evenings in the courtyard, the spa hosts a star-gazing cocktail hour with $99 spa treatment specials, perfect for a unique and relaxing treat.
- Private feng shui beauty consultations with Billy Yamaguchi are coveted, so reserve in advance.
- Rooms 400-581 have two advantages over other groups of rooms; they are a short walk to the spa, and are next to a self-parking lot.
La Costa Spa:
It would be easy to spend the day (maybe a few) at this spa, which is truly a destination. A private swimming pool winds through colorful gardens. Guests can enjoy a light meal al fresco. Inside, 42 treatment rooms are the setting for signature treatments such as the AGUA de la VIDA. La Costa Resort and Spa is also home to The Chopra Center, where guests enjoy complimentary yoga or signature treatments such as the indulgent Pizichilli (warm herbal oils massaged into your skin by four hands).
Golf and Tennis at La Costa:
La Costa's two championship Dick Wilson golf courses have hosted PGA tour events for three decades. The World Golf Championships - Accenture Match Play Championship are held here. In tennis, the La Costa Racquet Club hosts the Acura Classic.
