Walk the walk at Westward Look Resort in Arizona.

Westward Look Resort

Set at the foot of the Santa Catalina Mountains in Arizona’s Sonoran Desert, the 244-room Westward Look Resort reaches across 80 acres of cactus, jojoba plants, sage and pine trees. A series of trails weaves through the area, past more than 240 species of plants, eventually leading to a stone meditation maze. Following the circles, toward the center, is said to provide a sense of inner calm. The resort’s spa menu features treatments that blend native healing traditions with relaxing Eastern practices (westwardlook.com).

It's all Zen at Stoweflake.

Stoweflake Mountain Resort & Spa

At the center of this family-run property sits a small stone and hedge labyrinth, bordered by grass and wildflowers and sheltered by the gray clapboard hotel. A tranquil slate pool featuring a tall waterfall completes the peaceful picture—a perfect backdrop for a wedding ceremony. In addition to self-guided meditation, private classes in yoga and Pilates are held on the grassy area next to the maze. Stoweflake’s accommodations range from cozy rooms featuring four-poster beds to three-bedroom townhouses with mountain views (stoweflake.com).

Half Moon

A tranquil evening scene at Half Moon, Jamaica.

Light island breezes, the fragrance of tropical blooms and the seductive sounds of the ocean are all hallmarks of this oceanfront property. In addition to accommodations fit for royalty (it’s popular among the rock ’n roll set—Paul McCartney and Christina Aguilera are frequent guests), there’s a pristine beach and an indulgent oasis of a spa that includes a small rock labyrinth set on vibrant green grass. Serenity seekers are encouraged to inhale and exhale slowly and deeply as they walk. You might carry a stone or a piece of bamboo that is meant to represent stress. Once you reach the center of the maze, you place the object there—symbolically letting go of the negative feeling. It’s a wonderful experience for a couple to share as they start their new life together. Other amenities at the Fern Tree Spa include a yoga studio located in a greenhouse and couple’s treatment rooms with private patios and outdoor showers (halfmoon.com).
