    Vitamin D does wonders for our health. Better known as the “Sunshine Vitamin” because our bodies produce it from the sun’s rays, Vitamin D regulates blood pressure, reduces muscle tension, and prevents cancer and various other diseases. Luckily for us, some of our favorite spa hotels have just the the right treatments. Whether they boast ocean-side cabanas or secluded rooftop hot tubs, Oyster.com pulled together these outdoor spas that really know how to make us feel good — all while we’re soaking up the sun, of course.

    Grand Solmar Land's End Resort & Spa   Cabo San Lucas, Los Cabos, Mexico Grand Solmar's spa overlooks the ocean at Land's End Terrace and features beachside massage cabanas. It offers a long list of indoor and outdoor treatments, as well as a Temazcal sweat lodge for a full-body cleansing. Oyster's Treatment Pick: The sweat lodge may be kinda cool, er, we guess hot, but the real treat at Grand Solmar's spa is the Thalassotherapy treatment which uses seawater directly sourced from the Mar de Cortés.

    Arenal Nayara Hotel & Gardens   La Fortuna/Arenal, Costa Rica The beautiful Arenal Nayara's 44 individual bungalows, restaurant, wine bar, and spa are all tucked into incredibly lush grounds. Nayara Spa is beautifully built into the forest, and a few of the treatment rooms have stunning views. Oyster's Treatment Pick: The setting is so calming, and the treatment so soothing, that you may fall asleep -- but the delicious smell of the coffee scrub will leave you feeling fresh and ready to start your day.

Oyster's Treatment Pick: The spa includes several traditional Hawaiian treatments, such as the Lomi Lomi massage, a method passed down by "kupuna" (or "elders") that is meant to have sacred healing powers.

    Terranea Resort   Beaches - Santa Monica and Venice, Los Angeles, California One of just a few true mega-resorts in Southern California, the 100-acre, 582-room Terranea in Rancho Palos Verdes offers a range of features that's unrivaled among Los-Angeles-area properties, including nine holes of golf, five restaurants, three pools, gorgeous manicured grounds, and a top-tier spa. The spa facility encompasses a whopping 50,000 square feet and has 25 treatment rooms as well as its own pool and outdoor hot tubs. The three serene private treatment rooms, called VIP suites, are themed after the elements; the earth suite has a redwood sauna and shower, the fire suite has a fireplace, and the water suite has a copper tub and views of the Pacific. Oyster's Treatment Pick: With a long list of "signature spa rituals" split into categories "for morning and early afternoon" and "for late afternoon and evening," it's hard to pick a favorite. But we really love the invigorating volcanic ash wrap which is followed by a Vichy shower. Your skin will be glowing!
