Hotels are catering to wellness more and more. Now, there is a wide variety hospitality companies that seek out the health-conscious traveler with healthy retreats, and U.S. News & World Report has some recommendations when it comes to some of the best.

Tucson, Ariz., is home to the fitness-friendly Canyon Ranch.

"Located on 150 pristine acres, the all-inclusive Canyon Ranch in Tucson features a bevy of health-conscious facilities, such as outdoor tennis courts and a pool with underwater treadmills. But it's the property's 80,000-square-foot spa complex that consistently impresses lodgers," says Christine Smith.

"Tucked away on a private island in Turks and Caicos, COMO Parrot Cay boasts the COMO Shambhala Retreat, where holistic, Asian-inspired spa treatments are provided. In addition to standard treatment rooms, the facility offers a Pilates studio, an open-air yoga room, Japanese baths and an outdoor Jacuzzi garden," says Smith.

British Columbia is home to the sprawling Sparkling Hill Resort with Canada's largest spa.

"Inside the 40,000-square-foot space, visitors will find a fitness center and a separate area for meditation and classes. However, the spa's standout feature is its wet facilities. Guests have access to an outdoor infinity pool and an indoor saltwater pool that sits beneath a ceiling of Swarovski crystals," says Smith.
