Provincetown (or “P‑Town” to the locals) combines Atlantic‑coast serenity with a vibrant LGBTQ+ culture, making it a perfect setting for a restorative getaway. Below is a blueprint you can mix‑and‑match to build your own wellness retreat—lodging with on‑site spas, nutritious eats from sunrise to sunset, and one‑call access to Tom of P‑Town Health for anything from PrEP/PEP to that inevitable sunburn.
1. Restorative Lodging & Spa Time
| Stay | Why It’s Great for Wellness | Signature Perks |
|---|---|---|
| Crowne Pointe Historic Inn & Shui Spa | Adults‑only boutique inn steps from Commercial Street. | Himalayan‐salt sauna, mineral soaking tubs, deep‑tissue & Thai massage, complimentary gourmet breakfast. |
| Brass Key Guesthouse | Chic resort vibe with lush gardens in the West End. | Infinity pool, twelve‑person hot tub, on‑property spa cabanas, evening wine & cheese social. |
| Seaglass Inn & Spa | Four‑acre hilltop hideaway overlooking the bay. | Full‑service spa, heated outdoor pool, guided beach walks, complimentary continental “clean‑eats” breakfast. |

2. Healthy Bites Around Town
| Spot | What to Order | Good to Know |
