My favorite staycation location, La Costa Resort and Spa, has enhanced their spa experience to make it easier and that much more special for small groups to celebrate together. The brand new Luxe Lounge offers a private indoor social space for up to 10 people with custom packages for almost every occasion – baby showers, wedding showers, a girls day out and even a kids mini-spa party.

The ultra chic spa suite has six loungers, a table for four, a flat screen TV and a buffet to hold festive food and drinks.
I recently experienced the Sex and the City Spa Party at the new Luxe Lounge for a Girls Day Out. We lunched, chatted, drooled over the movie selection, drank Bellini’s (mine was a virgin, of course) and had a blast! We donned Spa robes while receiving reflexology massages and had many conversations about our plans to never leave.
I love and much prefer parties in small, intimate groups. My wedding party was small, my wedding and baby showers were small and I prefer smaller birthday parties – even for my kids! Things are not only more manageable; we seem to enjoy ourselves more when there are less people. Our Girls Day Out this past weekend at The Spa at La Costa was a perfect example of just that.
There are many options and packages for your social (and relaxing) gathering at the Luxe Lounge. A Girls Day Out is the first thing that comes to my mind (considering I’m always surrounded by boys), but the Sex and the City Spa Party would be perfect for Valentine’s Day – for the single ladies or for a group of girlfriends. Just make sure everyone involved drops the hint to their significant other. Here are some examples of the packages offered at the Spa at La Costa Luxe Lounge – and Private Spa Patio.

Disclosure: The Spa at La Costa treated me to a day of relaxation and socialization at the new Luxe Lounge. All opinions are my own and I love this space for many reasons – for locals and travelers.

I LOVE La Costa! I also agree about smaller events. My wedding and baby showers were small. I love small dinner parties and events too!
