3 wellness breaks to book this summer

In fact, wellness tourism continues to grow, and Wellness Tourism Initiative Trends for 2024 reveal that wellness retreats that integrate yoga, breathwork and meditation are leading the industry.

So, with rest and rejuvenation on the travel agenda, we've rounded up three of the must-visit blissful breaks to book this summer. The goal? To return feeling truly refreshed and revitalised.

The anti-stress retreat

If you're more tightly wound than an elastic band ready to snap, it might be time to book a wellbeing escape. Luckily, the Longevity Health & Wellness Hotel has just the programme to meet your needs. The Longevity Anti-Stress a and Mindfulness retreat is set in the picturesque resort of Alvor in the sunny Algarve region of Portugal.

Whether you want to rebalance your body and mind, discover your stress factors, or learn how to live a calmer life, this holistic haven is designed to leave you feeling brand new. You can expect a unique health check-up, stress-reducing therapies, rejuvenating treatments, healthy meals, and access to wellness activities such as yoga and a spa circuit. We love the sound of the emotional detox therapy.
