The wellness program at Bishop’s Lodge casts a wide net. Treatments include acupuncture, sculpting lymphatic drainage facials, Qi Gong, and ayurvedic full body massages juiced with CBD.
The Rancho Encantado Four Seasons spa just outside town is a serene escape, replete with billowing white curtains on light plaster, orchids, and a Zen rock and sculpture garden. Their spa menu, with treatments like a Moisture Drench Facial and an adobe clay cocoon massage—is designed to complement the experience of the high desert. Encantado also has a yoga program, full gym, and EQUUS equestrian experience.
Where to Shop
Santa Fe Vintage is accessible by appointment only. It’s well worth making a booking: The warehouse space, which sits on the outskirts of town, holds an incredible collection of vintage denim, distressed T-shirts, outerwear, and Western wear, not to mention swathes of indigo-dyed fabric. A treasure trove, in other words. If you derive pleasure from sifting through vintage, it’s not to be missed.
Double Take is a three-wing store: It has one wing for consignment “contemporary” clothing (which can be skipped over), one for Western wear (which, if you’re in the market for leather cowboy boots, suede jackets, and vintage denim, is pretty great) and one for designer and vintage pieces from the last few decades.
Doodlet’s sells a thoughtful but chaotic selection of overpriced, precious trinkets: stickers, foil-wrapped candies, books on Santa Fe, miniatures, charms. It’s a perfect place to buy gifts for children, but you’ll likely end up wanting a few things for yourself as well.
Shiprock, located above the Plaza, showcases and sells a succinct, impressive selection of woven textiles, Zuni Fetishes, Native American pottery, and vintage sterling silver and turquoise jewelry. It’s expensive, but each piece is remarkable and the space feels like a gallery.
