Nestled within 16 acres of ancient redwoods, this wellness retreat offers a transformative experience centered on community, introspection, and immersion in nature. Formerly known as Stillheart Institute, the Canyon Ranch Wellness Retreat in Woodside has been reimagined by Cole Martinez Curtis & Associates. The new design seamlessly integrates with the natural surroundings, encouraging a deeper connection to the environment.
The property boasts 14 rooms in the main lodge and an additional 24 rooms in standalone luxury treehouses, perched on stilts amidst the towering redwoods. Each guest room provides a tranquil sanctuary, featuring king or double queen beds, and most offer private balconies with teak furnishings. Expansive wraparound decks, an outdoor labyrinth, serene garden spaces, and an invigorating outdoor obstacle course invite guests to immerse themselves in the beauty that surrounds them.
A captivating assortment of artwork, curated in collaboration with Julie Coyle Art Associates, graces the property, showcasing pieces from local Californian artists. Among these is Bruce Johnson’s striking sculpture, “THE VOID,” crafted from salvaged old-growth redwood, drawing inspiration from the tranquility of the majestic trees and the transformative wellness experience offered by Canyon Ranch.
The retreat offers a diverse range of immersive experiences, from outdoor fitness classes beneath the canopy of redwoods to expert-led workshops, creative classes, and exclusive local excursions. However, it’s the boot camp that truly captured our hearts. The spa menu features a blend of traditional, alternative, and modern therapies, including signature treatments inspired by the redwood forest setting. Guided mountain biking and hiking excursions on some of the world’s finest trails, intimate Equus coaching sessions, personalized vineyard and farm tours, and privileged access to the region’s arts community are also available.
For a more personalized experience, private consultations, testing, and assessments with nutritionists, physiologists, spiritual wellness providers, and coaches are on offer. Executive Chef Isabelle Jackson Nunes curates a daily rotating menu of consciously sourced, plant-forward, market-driven California cuisine with global influences. The Hearth, an intimate dining space with communal seating, provides a nourishing meal program in a setting surrounded by nature. The Hideaway, Canyon Ranch’s inaugural bar and lounge, offers a selection of natural, biodynamic, and organic wines, along with innovative cocktails featuring market-fresh ingredients. Cold-pressed juices, house-made tonics, and superfood elixirs are also available. Discover more about Canyon Ranch Woodside or follow #CanyonRanchWoodside for updates.
