The trip runs 14th to 18th April 2027: four nights at a five-star hotel and resort in Paphos, on Cyprus's southwest coast. You book your own flights. The price covers your room, your food and non-alcoholic drinks, and the full training programme from Wednesday through Sunday.

A typical day starts early, sometimes with a morning hike to catch the coast before it heats up. After that comes a conditioning block, which could be HIIT, group sprints or an abs and core session Siobhan calls 'core attack'. Later in the day there are circuits in an outdoor amphitheatre, yoga, and stretch sessions to ease sore legs. Most evenings finish with a walk along the sea to look at the caves around sunset. Somewhere in the week there's also a nutrition and fitness workshop, where Siobhan explains how she builds meals and training for fat loss you can keep up after the holiday ends.

Most fitness retreats have a set timetable and a coach. This one is built around one-to-one attention. Siobhan sits down with each guest for a consultation and takes stats, measurements and weight. Guests say she keeps a close eye on what everyone eats, in a good way, and adjusts the pace so beginners and regulars can train in the same group. If you're in Dublin, you can also book an InBody full body composition scan at the BodyByrne studio before and after the trip to see exactly what changed. That scan costs extra.

Siobhan Byrne runs BodyByrne, a personal training and fitness business in Ireland, and she has been running these Cyprus trips for several years. The returning guests are the best evidence of how they go. Reviewers describe her as a trainer who pushes you further than you'd go yourself but knows when to ease off. Another member of her team, Claire, is mentioned in reviews for the conversations over downtime and meals.

Paphos is a good base for this kind of week. The weather in April is usually warm and sunny without the heat of high summer, so training outdoors works well. The coastline has rocky sea caves that work nicely for an evening walk. The resort gives you a pool, sea views from every room category, and somewhere comfortable to recover between sessions.
