Four Seasons Residence Club Aviara Introduces Wellness Journeys

This January, Four Seasons Residence Club Aviara, a premier luxury coastal sanctuary in north San Diego, invites guests to begin the new year with intention with Wellness Through the Elements — a curated month of spa rituals, bespoke wellness experiences and restorative programming inspired by Earth, Air, Water, and Fire.

Designed to rebalance and awaken the senses, each week highlights one of nature’s four elements through mindful treatments, nourishing beverages, and immersive wellness and culinary experiences.

• Week 1 – Earth - January 1-9, 2026 - Guests begin their journey with immersion in Earth’s quiet strength. Grounding the body and reconnecting the soul, the Driftwood Spa has developed a Pure Glow Detox Facial as an Earth mud mask ritual throughout the week with mushroom tea. Mineral-rich clays, resonant sound vibrations, and woodland botanicals bring deep grounding and clarity.
• Week 2 - Air - January 10-17, 2026 - Week two elevates the senses with therapies designed to awaken, oxygenate, and refresh. Guests experience lightness, buoyancy, and renewed energy with a guided Breathwork Class paired with a crisp chlorophyll mocktail.  Throughout the week enjoy specials on the Oxyigeno Facial with chlorophyll mocktail at the Driftwood Spa.
• Week 3 - Water - January 18-24, 2026 - Symbolizing flow and restoration, Week 3 introduces invigorating cold-water therapies balanced with serene communal meditation—reflective, intentional, and immersive.  End the week with a Floating Sound Bath for a shared moment of peace.
• Week 4 - Fire - January 25-31, 2026 - The month concludes with Fire—an energizing celebration of vitality and inner strength, designed to melt tension and enliven the spirit.  Guests will enjoy specials during the week for the Salt Stone Massage; this highly remineralizing treatment utilizes warm hand-carved salt stones from the Himalayan Mountains. While these naturally antimicrobial stones are used to balance the central nervous system and improve circulation, the 84 various salt minerals work to replenish depleted cells and lightly exfoliate dry skin.

Culinary Experiences Through the Elements at Seasons Restaurant

Throughout the four-week program, Seasons Restaurant and the Chef’s Table experience will feature a special Elemental menu crafted by the resort’s culinary team. Each course draws inspiration from its corresponding element, highlighting premium seasonal ingredients, artful presentation, and thoughtful storytelling. Guests may savour these creations à la carte in Seasons Restaurant throughout the month of January or elevate the experience with an intimate multi-course Chef’s Table menu — a rare opportunity to witness the culinary artistry behind each dish firsthand.
