TUCSON, Ariz., Aug. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Canyon Ranch Tucson has earned a prestigious nomination as the sole resort in the Americas to be recognized for the inaugural MICHELIN Wellness Award. This global honor highlights the top five wellness hotels in the world and is selected by MICHELIN Inspectors. The nomination reinforces Canyon Ranch’s longstanding reputation as a pioneer in holistic well-being for the body, mind, and spirit.
According to The MICHELIN Guide, Canyon Ranch is “the original wellness resort [and] still an undeniable trailblazer — where guests access the highest medical tech between hikes in the iconic Sonoran Desert.” This recognition places Canyon Ranch among an elite group of wellness destinations worldwide.
The MICHELIN Wellness Award celebrates properties that go beyond traditional spa and fitness offerings, creating immersive experiences that promote lasting healthy lifestyles. Canyon Ranch’s locations in Tucson, Arizona, and Woodside, California, currently hold the highest MICHELIN hotel rating of three MICHELIN Keys. Its Lenox, Massachusetts, resort holds two MICHELIN Keys—the top rating in New England.
“At Canyon Ranch, wellness is not just an amenity—it’s the foundation of every guest’s journey,” said Mark Rivers, CEO of Canyon Ranch. “Our guests step away from their everyday routines to engage with top experts in integrative health, fitness, nutrition, spirituality, and personal development. Being recognized by MICHELIN as one of the top five wellness destinations globally—and the only one in the Americas—is a powerful testament to the transformative nature of the Canyon Ranch experience.”
Founded in 1979, Canyon Ranch Tucson continues to lead the global wellness movement with innovative retreats, cutting-edge tools and technology, and ongoing investment in facilities designed to inspire. Nestled in the tranquil Sonoran Desert, the resort features one of the largest spas in the country, state-of-the-art medical and fitness centers, multiple dining venues, spiritual sanctuaries, lush gardens, and extensive outdoor adventure and racquet sports facilities.
The winner of the first-ever MICHELIN Wellness Award will be announced on October 8, 2025, during MICHELIN’s annual celebration, which will also unveil the 2025 MICHELIN Keys—recognizing the best hotels around the world.
