Wellness for Life Retreat at Safety Harbor Resort and Spa, Florida

The Wellness for Life programme is the flagship package: six nights and seven days at Safety Harbor Resort and Spa. It includes six nights in a spacious guest room, breakfast, lunch and dinner plus healthy snacks, and full use of the resort's three pools, steam room and sauna. You get a comprehensive consultation with the resident wellness coordinator, a fitness assessment with a certified trainer, and two personal training sessions. Each day you choose from several fitness classes, which run across yoga, Pilates and Zumba. On the treatment side you receive one European facial, one body treatment, two herbal wraps or hydro baths (herbal wraps for men), and a daily Swedish massage.

The 4-day mini retreat is the shorter version of the same idea, aimed at people who want to jump-start a health and fitness routine or get back on track. It includes three nights' accommodation, all meals and snacks, a combined fitness and nutritional evaluation with a trainer, one personal training session, daily classes, one herbal wrap or hydro bath, three Swedish massages and one European facial. Round-trip transport from Tampa or St. Petersburg/Clearwater airports is included.

The 5-day Stress Relief retreat leans more on treatments and stress management. It includes four nights, a stress management consultation with the wellness coordinator, hands-on guided stretch and range-of-motion training, a private guided meditation session, daily classes, one European facial, a spa manicure and pedicure, three herbal wraps or mineral baths, and four Swedish massages, one of which can be swapped for a scalp or foot massage.

The Gentlemen's Wellness retreat is the same four-night length but built for men. It includes a comprehensive fitness assessment, a personal training session based on the results, guided stretch and range-of-motion work, a private guided meditation session, daily classes, an executive facial or European deep cleansing back facial, a herbal wrap, and a choice of hot stone, sports, reflexology or deep tissue massage. It finishes with a shampoo and haircut, and you can have a beer or bourbon during that service.

All four packages begin any day of the week, subject to a seven-day advance notice requirement, and all taxes and fees are included in the prices. The programme is run by a team of certified trainers and instructors: Mary Strykowski as wellness coordinator, personal trainers Lorena Ortiz and John Soderman, and group fitness instructors Lori Pickens and Sue Carr.
