Vietnam · 15 days · From USD 2029
This retreat stands out because it is a results-driven fitness program built for solo travelers, not a standard group vacation. The day-to-day structure is centered around a personalized plan: after an initial InBody body composition scan, your personal trainer designs a training and nutrition strategy specific to your goals, whether that's fat loss, muscle gain, or general fitness. You'll train with the local community in daily CrossFit and HIIT group classes, which provides a motivating, energetic atmosphere while still allowing for personal privacy during your solo sessions.
The location in District 7 offers a calm, green base away from the city center's chaos, yet it's easy to explore Saigon via taxis or the Grab app. Your host, Phan Minh Tai (Kevill), a yoga teacher and founder of Peace Yoga House, along with his team, ensures you're supported at every turn. The facilities are top-notch: a modern weight room, an outdoor pool, and daily yoga classes held at a nearby studio (a pleasant 1.6 km walk). A dedicated rest day midweek is built in for recovery, featuring spa therapies like infrared saunas, salt rooms, and contrast baths—crucial for muscle repair and preventing burnout.
What really sets this program apart is the food. Since nutrition accounts for 70-85% of your transformation, meals are not an afterthought. A specialized culinary partner prepares and delivers your customized lunches and dinners directly to your hotel, Monday to Saturday. You can choose from a weekly menu or build your own bowl from a premium ingredient list—think Cajun chicken, basa fish, sweet potato, edamame, and a dozen house sauces. This eliminates the guesswork of eating healthily in a foreign country and ensures you stay on track without feeling deprived.
Beyond training, the retreat is a chance to see a different side of Vietnam. You'll explore the city's hidden gems on a guided motorbike tour, visit the historic Cu Chi Tunnels, and take a half-day trip to the Mekong Delta. Evenings might involve joining your host for a local meal or simply relaxing in your spacious apartment-style room. This combination of hard work, proper nutrition, recovery, and cultural immersion makes it a genuinely unique and effective approach to hitting your fitness goals while experiencing a vibrant city.
