BodyHoliday is one of the World’s best vacations of health and wellness. It has been a pioneering concept in the hospitality industry since it first opened in 1988 and continues to win major industry awards (T+L Gold List, Virtuoso Best Wellness Resort, CND Reader’s Choice Awards). It’s become well-known for its unique approach to well-being and BodyHoliday continues to deliver on its promise; ‘Give us your body for a week and we”ll give you back your mind”.
The resort provides a great beach vacation, supported by a wide range of accomodation options and a great selection of restaurant and bar options, but it is far more than that; it is also designed to be the most relaxing and rejuvenating wellness vacation in the world. One thing to remember is that when you stay here every guest can enjoy a spa treatment every day included with your room rate.
As a resort in the all-inclusive beach market, its spa and fitness facilities exceed that of any resort anywhere in the world. In the wellness market it equals the best on offer and one of its signature facilities – “Pavitra” is certainly the only genuine Ayurvedic temple in the West Indies.
Beyond its award-winning Wellness Centre, exclusive Skin Clinic, Beauty Salon and BodyScience Clinic, there is a massive range of treatments, therapeutic cares, classes, adventure programmes and sport. The Scuba Shop and Sailing School are both accredited (PADI and ASA resp.) offering official certifications.
Here, you choose to do as much or as little as you like. The concept is based on four pillars: relaxation, restorative beauty, exercise and nutrition and BodyHoliday offers a luxury of possibilities. BodyHoliday is not just about the activities, the food or the rooms; it is about the experience, the feeling, the dynamics of the guest’s camaraderie and the journey that they go through.
However you design it; reading a novel on a sunlounger with a cooling libation, abseiling down a river gorge, being gently massaged with soothing oils or experiencing true calm in meditation, BodyHoliday can be a hive of activity or a haven of peace and serenity. In fact, it’s all a body could ask for.
