St Lucia’s secret to slowing down time

The West Indian island’s gentle pace of life will soothe your mind and body. Here’s why a winter wellness soujourn at BodyHoliday and a timeless escape to Rendezvous on this island paradise is just what the doctor ordered

When it comes to your wellbeing, BodyHoliday understands that one size does not fit all. Instead, the all-inclusive wellbeing resort offers a completely personalised wellness holiday, where all services and activities are tailored specifically for you. For example, the week-long Weight Loss Retreats and Yoga Retreats – based at the resort’s new luxury villa, Firefly –  are about creating a bespoke, balanced approach to nutrition and fitness that works for you as an individual.

Looking for an outdoor hobby that will keep you fit? Take a course at BodyHoliday’s new American Sailing Association sailing school, where expert instructors show you the ropes on X-Treme 26 racing yachts. Other activities on offer are tai chi, pilates, meditation, stretch and tone classes, spinning, scuba diving, snorkelling and water skiing. Just remember to factor in some time for lying on the sugar-sand beach, listening to the lapping of the waves, and slipping between daydreaming and dozing.

Eat fresh

BodyHoliday's 155 rooms, public areas and TAO and Deli restaurants have all had a sparkling refresh. A new and delectable addition is I-Tal, an organic farm-to-table dining experience where guests are invited to gather their own ingredients from the soil and learn about sustainable farming before tucking into a delicious vegan feast.

Too often, it feels like there just aren’t enough hours in the day. All-inclusive boutique resort Rendezvous has created the antidote to this frazzled feeling with its Stolen Time concept, so there’s no need to clock-watch, stick to a schedule or pre-book activities. Relish instead in the lack of fixed plans – whether you feel like enjoying a spontaneous Balinese, Thai, Swedish or Hawaiian massage at the Water Garden Spa, ordering breakfast in bed, or lingering at one of the resort’s five restaurants and bars. 

Cover new ground

If the urge to explore the captivating island takes over, Rendezvous can arrange mini adventures for two, be it biking along the coast, hiking through rainforests, or scuba diving. Other options include sailing, water skiing, windsurfing, kayaking, tennis golf, beach volleyball and archery – or simply taking a dip together in the lazy river pool.
