Rhodes Luxury Fitness Retreat: Strength, HIIT & Yoga at a Five-Star Aegean Resort

This is a five-night, all-inclusive fitness retreat in Rhodes, Greece, run by Workout Away. You stay at the Elissa Lifestyle Resort, a five-star adults-only property on the coast. The daily schedule combines strength work, cardio, core training and stretching, with most days having two sessions — one in the morning and one in the late afternoon. The training is multi-level, so you can scale as needed.

The day starts early with a session like Workout Away Skill™ (a lifting masterclass), Workout Away HIIT™ or Workout Away Rivals™ (team-based strength). Then breakfast at the resort. Mid-morning often has a Run Club session, and the afternoon is free until late afternoon, when there's another workout — Tricore™ for core strength or another Rivals™ — followed by a restorative Revive™ stretch. Dinner is at the resort most nights.

Day one is a settle-in day: you arrive, check in, and do a lifting masterclass, a HIIT session and a stretch before dinner. Day two is strength, run club and core. Day three is HIIT, run club and team strength. Day four is different — after a core and stretch session and breakfast, you head out on a private boat trip for the afternoon, cruising, swimming and having a picnic on board. Day five is the last full day: team strength, core work, run club and a final stretch, then dinner out at Taverna Kosta. Day six is a final core session, breakfast and check-out by late morning, with the option to store bags and use the facilities before your flight.

The retreat includes breakfast and dinner daily, all workouts, the boat day, and a luxury gift (from Sol de Janeiro). Not included: flights to Rhodes (RHO), airport transfers, travel insurance, local city tax (payable on arrival), and spa treatments.

The trainer team for the listed September 2027 departure includes Chris (founder and Master Trainer, leading HIIT, Rivals and WOD concepts) and Amanda (retreat host, a Pilates instructor and beach fitness studio owner). The line-up may change for other dates.
