There’s an immersive health and wellness retreat happening in Portugal next month

If you want to embark on a sun holiday and come home stronger, fitter and healthier, this weeklong retreat will help you achieve your health and fitness goals — while having fun and making friends along the way.

Regardless of your body type, fitness goals, or financial budget, making sure that your health and wellbeing remain a top priority should be fundamental for everyone. Taking place from October 1-8, Pure Sun is a Pure Results retreat set on the beautiful Algarve coastline led by Kathryn Thomas.

An ideal time of year to focus on you, the kids will be settled back into their school routine, and you’ll have the opportunity to make the most of those brighter evenings before we descend into the darker months. It’s also a fantastic opportunity to meet some likeminded people, with 80% of Pure Results clients going along solo.

Join the team for a week of fun in the sun with plenty of fitness classes and delicious food to ensure you go home feeling in tip-top shape. Having hosted a sold-out wellness retreat back in April, they’re doing it all again next month, focussing on weight-loss, and optimising health and wellbeing.

All your accommodation, calorie-counted meals, snacks and refreshments for the weeks are provided, and the seven-day retreat includes a broad range of high-intensity and low-interval fitness classes such as boxercise, circuit training and yoga, plus day trips to explore the local surroundings. All ages and fitness levels are catered for, and you can choose to take part in as much or as little as you like — it is your holiday, after all.

You will also benefit from nutrition workshops and well-being education sessions and crucially, also included in your package is a two-week aftercare programme so that you can keep focused on your weight-loss journey after camp has ended. This includes meal plans and online workouts.

Accommodation

Set in the municipality of Lagos, between the villages of Luz and Bergau, the traditional Portuguese style, family-run hotel offers beautiful sea and mountain views, lush tropical gardens and a huge outdoor swimming pool — the perfect place to relax after workouts. All rooms are en suite with balconies. Room amenities include WIFI, a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, air conditioning, a safe and a refrigerator.
