Now’s the time to put yourself first and book in for one of the world’s best wellness retreats for a long weekend dedicated to meditation, relaxation and well-being.
From sunrise yoga workshops in New Zealand to wild swimming in Somerset, here are our favourites.
Castle Hot Springs, Arizona USA
Tie your fascination with hot springs and your passion for wellness together with a visit to Castle Hot Springs. Located in the American state of Arizona, wellness is centrefold to the resort, offering a space to switch off and relax surrounded by hot springs.
Sink into the warming springs and detox your body with the natural waters, go on hikes across the desert or book in for a reiki treatment. For the yogis, it’s also well known for its daily yoga and meditation sessions. Re-energize your body with a yin yoga class or some vinyasa flow.
Aman Amanemu, Japan
It’s hard not to completely lose yourself in the beauty of a stay at any of Aman’s global resorts but Aman Amanenu especially. Feeling like it’s been plucked straight from a movie, the resort is surrounded by the forested hills of Ise-Shima, away from prying eyes and home to mineral-rich hot springs, coastline and pilgrim trails.
Their dedicated wellness packages are not to be missed. Spend your day delighting in fresh foods, detoxing through yoga and purifying with a ninety-minute scrub and wrap.
Como Shambhala Estate, Bali
Although temporarily closed for now, Bali’s Como Shambhala Estate is well worth the visit for those searching for the ultimate wellness experience. Their holistic, 360-degree approach is second to none, offering guests the chance to experience nature unlike ever before as well as offering a chance to work on and better themselves.
Expect state-of-the-art facilities and stunning accommodations to take centre stage. The space specialises in yoga and pilates, so is perfect for those wanting to take their hobby to the next level. Book in here and you won’t ever want to leave.
Aro Ha, New Zealand
New Zealand’s Aro Ha retreat will see you fall deeper in love with nature than ever before. Surrounded by stunning scenery complete with glistening blue lakes and snow-capped mountains, the resort is completely stunning.
With bookable retreats every month, you’ll soon be spending your time downward dogging as the sun rises, hiking around the open space and connecting with like-minded individuals over nourishing healthy spreads. Who could resist a yoga workshop with a view like this anyway?
