TUCSON, AZ–(Marketwire – September 20, 2010) –  Travel + Leisure has revealed its Top Ten Destination Spas (World’s Best Awards 2010) and Canyon Ranch is thrilled to announce it has received this highly coveted accolade. Resort properties in Tucson and Lenox are once again joining the ranks, and Canyon Ranch Hotel & Spa in Miami Beach is making its debut.

The “World’s Best Awards” are voted on by the readers of Travel + Leisure to honor the top hotels, destinations, airlines, cruises, spas and transportation companies in the world. In the annual survey, destination spas were rated independently by Travel + Leisure readers in five categories: accommodations/ambiance, treatments, service, food and value. The Top Ten Destination Spas will be featured in the October issue of Travel + Leisure magazine (on newsstands September 24) and on www.travelandleisure.com.

“We couldn’t be happier to see three of our properties listed in the World’s Best Awards by the well-traveled readers of Travel + Leisure,” said Jerry Cohen, Canyon Ranch Vice Chair and CEO. “This recognition reflects our continued dedication to creating an environment that promotes health and the highest enjoyment of life for all of our guests.”

As a newcomer to the list, Canyon Ranch Hotel & Spa in Miami Beach, which opened in November 2008, has quickly established itself as a top hotel for the healthful minded traveler. Canyon Ranch Hotel & Spa in Miami Beach provides its guests with an integrative approach to health and wellness in order to create a life-enhancing transformation while also delivering a complete luxurious travel experience and world class spa.

“Canyon Ranch was founded 31 years ago with a mission to inspire people to make a commitment to healthy living,” said Cohen. “Whether our guests choose to experience Canyon Ranch in Tucson, Lenox or Miami Beach, they know they will receive the same personalized attention — it’s the Canyon Ranch way of life.”
