TOP 5: Digital Detox Resorts

We’re used to being online at all times, even when traveling. But if you’re looking to unplug and relax without all the static, ask your travel advisor about these exclusive stays.

Willka T’ika: Urubamba, Peru

Relax, rejuvenate and cultivate well-being at this eco-friendly sanctuary located between the world heritage site of Machu Picchu and the former Inca Empire capital of Cusco. Named one of the best digital detox retreats by Vogue, Willka T’ika (which means sacred flower) offers Wi-Fi but only in one designated area, so you can better focus on finding inspiration, revitalization and a renewed connection to nature.

Preidlhof Luxury DolceVita Resort: South Tyrol, Italy

Once named the best hotel spa in Italy, this adult-only five-star wellness resort is in the most blissful location, surrounded by the mountains of the breathtaking Merano of South Tyrol. Known for its epic spa (there’s a six-floor sauna tower!) and exquisite cuisine, Preidlhof prioritizes a quiet, natural environment and even turns off guest-room Wi-Fi overnight to encourage a restful sleep. (You can plug into the resort’s wired network, if need be.)

Miraval Arizona: Tucson, Arizona

Located on 400 idyllic acres just north of Tucson, Miraval Arizona is known for attracting such celebrity guests as Ellen DeGeneres and Lupita Nyong’o. Its wellness philosophy prioritizes mindfulness, and since phones deter you from living in the moment, guests are asked to use technology only in designated areas, and are even given tiny sleeping bags for their devices. Book lovers take note: e-readers are welcomed.

Rancho La Puerta: Tecate, Mexico

With daily activities like meditation hikes, Pilates, cooking classes and piano concerts, you’ll be too engaged to pick up your phone. But Rancho La Puerta helps make sure of that by prohibiting all phone use in public areas and even limiting Wi-Fi in its guest casitas, which are tucked away over the resort’s 4,000 acres in Tecate, Mexico, just over four miles from the U.S. border.

Villa Stéphanie Spa & Wellbeing: Baden-Baden, Germany

Located on the grounds of Brenners Park-Hotel & Spa in Baden-Baden, Villa Stéphanie makes digital detoxing as easy as flipping a switch. Each of the tasteful rooms and suites features a bedside button that fully disconnects the entire room from its electronics and Wi-Fi. You’ll be free from the distractions of your noisy devices to help you better enjoy the luxe spa’s recuperative and preventative treatments.
