It’s that divine time of year for full-on summer vacations: two weeks – or just two days – full of caftans, suntans, cocktails and white sands. With the season in full-swing, we’re reminded that, while we’re the first to admit we love a holiday filled with indulgences, coming home from a getaway full of “cheat days” can leave us feeling less than rested.
For a truly restful getaway, why not consider a resort or spa that offers restorative experiences and a bit of clean living? Our favorite travel site, Tablet Hotels, is sharing their ten favorite spots for the perfect detox holiday. Re-evaluate your definition of indulgence and consider one of these luxurious hotspots to book a truly clean break!

Asclepios Wellness & Spa
Alajuela, Costa Rica — This Costa Rican escape, named for the Greek god of healing, is less about preserving an ecosystem and more about rejuvenating the body and soul.

The PuLi
