Anytime is a good time for a girls’ weekend away; however, October is a particularly poignant time for some self care and bonding with your besties in observance of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Here we share some resorts and spas across the country using the opportunity to curate special experiences for guests while raising money and awareness for women’s health charities and healthy habits.

The Loma de Vida Spa at La Cantera Resort & Spa
La Cantera Resort & Spa, located just outside of San Antonio in Texas Hill Country, offers a 60-minute, locally crafted Raspberry Rose-infused sugar scrub treatment accompanied with a sparkling Rosé or pink mocktail. Guests can also add on a signature manicure or pedicure and a Knesko Rose Quartz Antioxidant Mask. A portion of sales from every treatment goes to WINGS, the only program of its kind in the country providing health care services to women with breast cancer. Also at the spa, Jamie O’Banion, founder and CEO of BeautyBio, will host a beauty secrets tell-all demonstration event on Oct. 8, with $5 from each admission benefitting WINGS.

Also known as the Pink Palace, The Don CeSar will host a Blossoms of Hope flower workshop in partnership with local company The Roaming Petal in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The Oct. 21 workshop, open to both guests and locals, aims to raise awareness about breast cancer while fostering creativity and spreading positivity through the art of floral design. A portion of the proceeds will go back to the Moffitt Cancer Center, located in Tampa.

Apr 17, 2024Amansara Review
It was more than a car journey; it was a transition between worlds. At our first hotel in Siem Reap, huge coaches constantly pulled up outside the lobby to deposit or receive international tour groups; we departed in very different style, in a 1965 black Mercedes limousine once owned by King Sihanouk.
