San Francisco Spas - Best San Francisco Spas

Begin Slideshow

Forget waiting until your partner (real or imagined) books you an indulgent couples' spa day. If you ask us, real zen comes when you're all by your lonesome, zoning out instead of chattering away. That's why we've done a little research for you and rounded up the best solo-friendly spas in San Francisco that have both solid treatment options and beyond-dreamy spaces for hours and hours of relaxation. From a center tucked inside the Presidio (and seemingly miles away from the real world) to urban oases with breathtaking city views, there's definitely a chill-out spot for you on this list. Dial them up, pack a bag full of never-read magazines (or a sleep mask), turn off your phone, and get ready to zen the eff out.
