Best place for long weekend spa getaway in SW?

I'm looking for a reasonably priced pampering getaway for 4 or 5 days for a girls trip in mid June. Some of us are coming from Los Angeles and some from Atlanta, so we need a place somewhere between the two. Austin, Colorado Springs and Sante Fe are possibilities. Any location and/or hotel suggestions would be appreciated!!!

Check out Red Mountain Spa in St. George, Utah. It is only 2 hours from Las Vegas. We did a girls trip there a year or so ago and it was wonderful!

You might look at http://www.vailcascade.com beautiful setting by the river. Vail has great food, shopping and other activities golf, hiking, biking. The Hotel is on the river with a wonderful pool. You can fly into Eagle CO about a 30 min drive or Denver about 2 hours. Drive is pretty and goes by fast.

I have not personally been to this spa but it looks gorgeous. Lake Austin spa and Resort. They have a website. The Austin area is really awesome. You can go see live music, shop on South Congress AVe, see the Capitol or simply hang out at the lake. Lake Austin is very pretty.

I forgot to mention that the spa has accomodations available. I am not sure if you are looking to stay there or just go for a day of pampering. They do have both.

I second Lake Austin Resort and Spa. It's on Lake Austin and, thus, has beautiful scenery. Nothing but pampering, relaxation and healthy cuisine. They also just opened up their brand new spa building....
