New York may get most of the attention when it comes to world-class wellness spaces, but our editors have news for you: There are plenty of incredible spas in New Jersey, too—you just have to know where to look.
The Garden State’s spa scene has been in bloom over the past decade, with major players like Spa Pendry Natirar and SoJo Spa Club cropping up and drawing visitors from across the East with top-notch treatments and feed-worthy facilities.

New Jersey is famous for its diversity—and that’s part of what makes these spaces so great. Whether you’re looking for a Thai massage, Finnish dry sauna, or a Korean head spa, you can find it all within a few exits on the parkway.
