Ten Thousand Waves is a masterful, faithful recreation of a Japanese mountain onsen transplanted into the high desert of New Mexico.

Nestled among the piñon pines of the Sangre de Cristo foothills outside Santa Fe, this surreal wellness sanctuary transports guests entirely to another continent. Visitors pad about in yukata robes, soaking in cedar-scented hot tubs beneath the vast desert sky.

With an exquisite sake bar, an elite izakaya-style restaurant, and deeply restorative spa therapies, it is a profoundly peaceful and culturally astonishing American retreat.
