A Wellness Retreat Experience at Cal-a-Vie Health Spa and The Havens Country Club

Golfing provides an opportunity to move and connect with your surroundings in a meaningful way. At Cal‑a‑Vie Health Spa, guests can experience the benefits of golfing as part of their wellness retreat, with access to our sister property, The Havens Country Club, located just next door.

The Wellness Benefits of Golfing

Golf is a unique form of movement that supports both your physical and mental wellbeing. Walking the course encourages steady, low-impact activity that improves cardiovascular health and circulation. The natural rhythm of the game also supports balance, coordination, and flexibility.

Spending time outdoors has been shown to reduce stress and promote a sense of calm. Golfing allows you to disconnect from daily distractions and focus on the present moment. This mindful approach to movement can help to reduce anxiety and enhance mental clarity.

Golf also offers a social component, playing with friends, or meeting fellow guests, creates opportunities for connection in a relaxed and serene environment.

Golfing at The Havens Country Club

Guests at Cal‑a‑Vie Health Spa have the unique opportunity to enjoy rounds of golf at our sister property, The Havens Country Club. Located just minutes from the resort, this 240-acre course offers a scenic and memorable playing experience.

Designed by Ted Robinson Sr., this 18-hole championship course features dramatic elevation changes, undulating fairways, and fast greens. The front nine offers a more technical, tree-lined layout, while the back nine opens up with elevated tees and expansive views of the Southern California landscape.

The course is designed to accommodate all skill levels, with a variety of tee options and practice facilities including a driving range and short game areas. Each round offers a new experience, making it a course that guests return to again and again.

This balance between activity and relaxation is what makes a wellness retreat truly effective. The body is given the opportunity to move, recover, and reset in a supportive environment. It is an experience that supports both physical health and mental wellbeing. When paired with a wellness retreat, it becomes an opportunity to reconnect with yourself while enjoying the beauty of your surroundings. At Cal‑a‑Vie Health Spa, guests can experience this balance firsthand enjoying scenic rounds at The Havens Country Club while resting and recovering in a French-Inspired Haven.
