Rather than hitting balls alongside other links lovers on a driving range, you’ll be swept to your own secluded setup. Practice your swing in style with a private lesson. The resort’s gorgeous 18-hole golf course, Journey at Pechanga, is the stuff greens dreams are made of, right down to the high-tech golf carts equipped with GPS ball-to-pin positioning. While you’re here, be sure to indulge in the spa’s fabulous facilities, from the light-filled relaxation lounge to the private outdoor pool and waterfall-enhanced hot tub. The final product comes in either a carry-on-sized shea butter or roller-ball stick - either is a convenient way for you to take a little piece of your vacation home with you. With the help of an app developed by organic essential oil brand Body Bliss, you can customize your own fragrance based on your mood, power number (your birthday) or by picking your favorite scent and adding complementary oils to create a unique smell. If you’re in need of more personalized attention, head for the main spa building (adjacent to the pool) for a spin at the aromatherapy bar. The menu is customizable, but we recommend leaving the flavor-fragrance pairings to the experts. A sip of grapefruit-infused tonic between each bite keeps your palate cleansed. You might try a mouthful of tender lamb while smelling mint or enjoy a seared scallop coupled with the scent of habanero. These specially made spoons feature a compartment for essential oils, allowing you to smell one flavor while savoring another, effectively changing the way your brain perceives the taste - a much more enticing take on high school chemistry. Watch as resort executive chef Duane Owen prepares tasty appetizers using molecular gastronomy - during our visit, we sampled a deliciously gelatinous ball of tomato juice and vodka served over a morsel of celery - followed by more substantial bites artfully presented on unique utensils. Usually reserved for high rollers, CEOs on corporate retreats and couples, the Volatile Tasting is part epicurean experience, part science experiment. While the dimly lit dining room makes for an exceptional evening, it’s the private space just past the leather banquettes that ups the ante. When you’re craving prime cuts and a sublime wine list, look no further than this classic white-tablecloth-clad steakhouse just off the casino floor. Volatile Tasting at The Great Oak Steakhouse
