Wellbeing Holidays

Located in a magnificent cove surrounded by mangroves and sugar-soft sand, Carlisle Bay’s Zen-like tranquility radiates throughout; with sleek, spacious suites, activities galore and three fabulous restaurants.

THE address in Barbados, this is a resort where all the right people come to see and be seen, where food runs the gamut from healthy to gourmet, and where the gorgeous coral beach boasts pure, pale sands.

Sprawling grounds, virgin beaches, and design courtesy of one of the world’s most beloved fashion designers, Oscar de la Renta. This boutique beauty may be ensconced in a larger resort but uniquely, most of the suites are beachfront, and great for families.

It’s a bold move, fusing the effortless style of the French and Italian Rivieras with the Caribbean’s colourful effervescence, but this diminutive Dominican village-style retreat, set in the 30,000-acre Cap Cana enclave, pulls it off majestically.

Perched high in the Blue Mountains and hidden away by tropical vegetation, this former coffee plantation has the ambience of secret island retreat. Belonging to Chris Blackwell, the founder of Island Records, it’s played host to musicians of every flavour for 40 years.

Give BodyHoliday your body for a week, and they’ll give you back your mind. Yes, you may be inundated with an unparalleled choice of programmes and activities, but how much (or how little) you do is entirely up to you.

One of the most exclusive hideaways in the Caribbean, here it’s all about life’s simple pleasures, with no noisy distractions and an unforgettable pampering service.

On a rocky headland in beautiful Turks and Caicos, a peppering of low-rise pavilions and villas rest amongst lush vegetation, punctuated by lazy ponds, and fringed by milky sands.
