So is this just another bootcamp in the sun?

Oh, believe me, the daily cardio and PT sessions will make you sweat, but what really sets this retreat apart is its 360° approach to wellness, promising to reset mind, body and spirit. Daily sunrise yoga and evening yin sessions nourish the soul, and candlelit meditations leave you feeling calm and focused. One-to-one sessions with top life coach Tim Cooper will transform your thinking and help you gain clarity. Plus, there are hikes, runs and weights sessions. So, I take it you have to be super fit to get involved, right?

I hold my hands up, yoga aside, I’m a workout amateur, but the individual training sessions meant I never felt out of my depth. In fact, it’s a great crash course for anyone wanting to establish a new exercise regime and get their fitness knowledge up to speed, pronto. The personalised plans are put together by some of London’s best PTS. So whether you’re a newbie or a pro, you’re guaranteed to get the most out of your time.

Did someone say dinner?

The Moro sisters, an Italian vegan duo, are the in-house chefs. They serve up dishes that feel like a proper feast but are lean and nutritious (mostly). Pancakes for breakfast with strawberries, whipped coconut cream and a faux sticky toffee sauce made with coconut blossom nectar? Not a problem. Hearty Italian pasta made from scratch? You betcha. Plus, fitness-model-turned-juice-expert Amanda Branco is on hand to serve up nutritious drinks pre and post workout in the balmy Iberian sunshine.

Anything else you’d like to add?

Did I mention the villa? Modern luxury that looks like it’s straight out of James Bond. Double-0 heaven.
