Just did this yesterday! 5 stars! Doesn’t even come close to the actual experience! I am a spa slut and this place is the best in the world. Period!!! Mind, body and spirit renewed! When “rustic”… feels like the “ritz”!

Food, fun, fitness….and a massage? Count me in! Saturdays at the Ranch are great one-day getaways for spa and fitness enthusiasts. Go alone or with friends – it’s perfect for birthday celebrations, club outings, or any other private event*.  The Saturdays at the Ranch experience is unforgettable and will leave you wanting to spend a week at our world-renowned resort.

The day includes: a 50 minute Ranch Classic Massage*, fitness classes (or simply spend free time getting in touch with nature or relaxing by the pool), healthy morning snacks, a Mediterranean lunch, a tour of our 6-acre organic garden, and a cooking demonstration and appetizer buffet at our culinary center, La Cocina Que Canta (“The Kitchen That Sings”). Round trip transportation to/from San Diego (about 1-hour driving time) is provided.

Sample Schedule

*Please note that the schedule is subject to change. 

Crossing the border is typically fast and easy!

PLEASE BRING YOUR VALID PASSPORT.*

*Those with Sentri Cards must still bring passports.

What to wear…and bring: Wear comfortable, closed-toe shoes for walking and pack lightly, preferably in a backpack, as you will be doing a fair amount of walking with your personal belongings. Bring a hat and a bathing suit (optional). Dress in exercise attire and fitness shoes. Our Health Centers include lockers, hot tubs, steam and sauna rooms. Cell phone use on the grounds or in classes and facilities at the Ranch is prohibited. Please respect the needs of other guests who appreciate our atmosphere of being a restful, tranquil escape.

Physical requirements: Rancho La Puerta is a place that grew over many years into a garden-path environment where walking is viewed as enjoyable exercise—and yes, you will be doing a fair amount of walking! If hiking is difficult for you, or if you have trouble navigating steps, slightly uneven brick paths, rustic tile floors, and being “out in the rows” in the vegetable garden, then “Saturdays at the Ranch” is not for you. We are very sorry but we also cannot accommodate aids such as wheelchairs, walkers, scooters, etc.

Spa Treatments: You may pre-book a therapy once you have confirmed your Saturday at the Ranch reservation. Your credit card will be charged upon confirmation of your treatment time. Gratuity optional; must be paid in cash after treatment.

PLEASE BRING YOUR VALID PASSPORT.

A note about the bus ride…” Rancho La Puerta is reached via California State Highway 94 which runs southeast from downtown San Diego. The 22.3-mile stretch between Jamacha Junction and Tecate is a very scenic road through the mountains, but also very “curvy” in many parts. Our drivers are careful and considerate, but if you have a tendency toward motion sickness, please consider a motion-sickness medication.

*We ask guests to please refrain from consuming alcohol while being transported to and from Rancho La Puerta.

  • With notice of more than 30 days prior to arrival date, all of payment will be refunded, less a cancellation fee of $50 per person.

  • 13 days or less before arrival date, full payment is forfeited per person.
