Spa Eastman named Canada’s best wellness retreat at World Spa Awards, with packages starting at $873

The Story

Spa Eastman, a wellness retreat in Quebec roughly an hour’s drive from Montreal, has been recognized as Canada’s Best Wellness Retreat at the World Spa Awards, winning the top designation for the second year in a row. The international awards, now in their 12th year, include a country-specific section for Canada’s best properties even though no Canadian venue took home honours in the global “World’s Best” categories this year.

The retreat is set on 333 acres and is positioned as a nature-focused alternative to city life. The property includes 10 pavilions, 15 kilometres of nature trails, and a range of thermal facilities, including infrared and Finnish saunas as well as hot tubs and other spaces designed for rest and recovery.

Wellness programming at Spa Eastman also extends beyond the facilities themselves. The retreat includes a large gym and a pool, and guests can access daily meals prepared by the property’s chefs—three healthy meals per day during a stay.

Package pricing highlighted for new visitors includes the company’s recommended starting option: the Destination Spa package. The package is described as beginning at $873 per person for a minimum stay of three nights, and it is presented as a “do-it-yourself” style itinerary with access to the property’s grounds and facilities rather than scheduled treatments.

According to the information provided, the Destination Spa package does not include treatments or consultations, so first-time guests are encouraged to explore at their own pace and decide how to structure their time upon arrival. The emphasis is on using the facilities—such as saunas, thermal areas, and leisure spaces—rather than following a set daily schedule of appointments.

For travellers looking to stay for longer or to tailor their experience to different goals, Spa Eastman says it also offers other packages with prices ranging from $1,279 to $2,751 for upcoming retreats planned for Fall 2026 and Summer 2027. The information indicates the pricing varies by package and the structure of the planned retreat dates.

While the retreat is marketed around downtime, the available details also point to more active options during stays. Guests can use the nature trails, attend fitness classes, participate in hands-on workshops, and take part in conferences and sessions featuring wellness professionals such as kinesiologists and naturopaths.

For people who cannot take a full multi-day trip, the property offers alternatives that allow guests to sample parts of the wellness facilities without booking an overnight stay. A day visit that includes a spa treatment is listed at $254, while an evening pass that allows access to pools and saunas is available for up to $149.

Beyond the recognition for Spa Eastman, the same World Spa Awards Canada results also named other Canadian properties in separate categories. Toronto’s Guerlain Spa at Hotel X was named Canada’s Best Hotel Spa, and the Whistler Spa at Four Seasons Resort and Residences Whistler was recognized as Canada’s Best Resort Spa, reflecting a wider sweep of spa and resort honours across the country.
