With hit show The White Lotus captivating audiences every Sunday, fans and travelers look for travel experiences that mimic the luxury of resorts seen on screen. While everyone isn’t able to travel to Thailand, the current locale of season three, there are some closer options in the United States offering the perfect blend of indulgence, relaxation and intrigue.

The Ranch, an award-winning luxury fitness brand offering retreats, invites guests to embrace the philosophy of wellness and relax in luxury at its locations in Malibu and the Hudson Valley. At both locations, guests can expect stunning landscapes and thoughtfully planned wellness programs designed to generate a new sense of joy and vitality; increase energy; and challenge the body in an active, healthy and sustainable way to create healthy lifestyle changes to implement into everyday life.

The Ranch Hudson Valley sits on a historic, lakefront estate that stretches 200 forested acres. The property is also less than an hour from New York City. Guests can pick three- or four-night stays with guided wellness programs featuring The Ranch’s signature schedule of mountain hikes; naptime; strength training classes; restorative yoga; deep tissue massage; and organic, plant-based meals. Guests can stay in one of 25 private rooms offering picturesque views of the lake and grounds throughout the estate. The property also features a living area, dining room, game room, a Solarium, spa, indoor and outdoor pools, hot and cold plunges, and a spacious gym with afternoon yoga and fitness classes.

Perched on the rugged coastline of the Santa Monica Mountains, The Ranch Malibu offers six-night wellness retreats or private wellness experiences in a serene haven. Accommodations reflect classic California living with luxury spaces blending indoor and outdoor living. The property features private guest cottages, an open-air kitchen, certified organic garden, gym, Massage Village, outdoor pool, Jacuzzi and cold plunge.
