Sacred Mineral Soaking: Ojo Resorts in New Mexico

New Mexico has many appealing health and wellness attractions. For a taste of the best — a healing, restorative visit to northern New Mexico — nothing beats a stay at an Ojo Resort. Many first-time visitors become repeat customers, visiting Ojo Santa Fe time and time again on overnight and day-pass stays. Both Ojo Resorts feature mineral pools with mineral content unique to the area, and both resorts feature communal and private tub hydrotherapy options, saunas and on-site specialty spa treatments.

Of course, you can soak in New Mexico's culture in other ways during your visit to this unique state. Head into Santa Fe, Taos or any of the historic towns on the High Road and tour hundreds-year-old churches, view (and purchase) locally made artwork and savor prickly pear margaritas or any number of excellent New Mexico craft beers or wines. You can answer for yourself the state question, “red or green” (chile), or go for both with the ‘yes, and’ answer of “Christmas!” You can see the beginning of the modern immersive art experience at the original Meow Wolf in Santa Fe. Or, you can spend the majority of your time soaking and eating farm-fresh meals at the Ojo restaurants.

However you plan your visit to northern New Mexico, be sure to stay and soak at Ojo Resorts!
