Take a dip in the heated lap pool or sink into one of the two clifftop heated infinity spas for a soothing soak with sweeping views. At Post Ranch Spa, you can choose from seven different styles of massage or take advantage of unique services including sound baths, couple's reflexology lessons, a session with an astrologist or a shamanic ritual. For a truly memorable experience, book a falconry session to experience the ancient sport and learn about the resident raptors.
