5-Day Juice Detox and Wellness Retreat in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

The retreat is built around a juice detox protocol designed to flush out toxins and give your digestive system a break. You’ll drink three freshly made cold-pressed fruit and vegetable juices a day, along with special detox drinks, a daily detox soup, and unlimited herbal tea. Before the retreat starts, you prepare with a liver flush drink. The program includes a full schedule of natural food supplements, an intestinal cleanser, and probiotics. It’s a proper cleanse, but it’s also supported—Anayata say it’s suitable for both beginners and people who have done detoxes before.

Days are structured around yoga, meditation, and workshops. You’ll have a group yoga class each day, plus meditation, breathwork, and sound healing. The workshops cover emotional release methods like Theta Healing and emotion codes—terms you may not have heard of unless you’ve been on a similar retreat. They’re a way of identifying and letting go of emotional baggage that you might be carrying without realising. Guests on previous retreats have described feeling lighter and sleeping better after this part of the program.

You’re based at the Nofa Riyadh Resort, which is a big, comfortable place. The villas have private gardens and some have their own pools. There’s a large beach pool, two freshwater lakes, a zip wire, and an 18-hole golf course on site. The retreat includes some activities like guided walks and cycling, which are good ways to get moving without stressing your body. You’ll also have free time to rest, read by the pool, or just wander the grounds.

The team behind it is Anayata, three founders who left corporate jobs to set up these retreats. They run similar programs in Spain and Thailand. Here in Saudi Arabia, it feels newer, with the focus on bringing a tried-and-tested program to a different landscape. The location, just outside Riyadh, is a modern take on a desert retreat—luxury rather than bare-bones.
