Summer is peeking around the corner, which might mean an extended holiday for some (or just your kids). Regardless, I think we can all agree that summer is the time of year when we feel the pull to slow down just a little. Maybe that is partially due to the heat and humidity, or perhaps it's from seeing so many people on vacation via social media, which has us daydreaming our way through work. If it's the latter, then it might be time to lean into the season of relaxation and rejuvenation with a luxurious spa resort getaway.
If you've been thinking about taking that girls' trip, couples' retreat, or relaxing weekend getaway but don't want to go too far, then these 5 spa resorts might be just what you need. All located on the East Coast, each one allows you to bask in the glow of pure relaxation and emerge feeling like a brand-new you.
