Girls’ nights and girls’ weekends are enjoyable. Women’s wellness retreats, on the other hand, are where fun meets transformation. The epidemic may have wiped out last year’s retreat schedule, but it also contributed to a growing demand for a holistic vacation. With many hotels reopening and people returning to vacation, there are a plethora of forthcoming health retreats. Many are solely intended for and led by women. They are, at the very least, created with women in mind. Whether you want to reintroduce yourself to yoga or meditation, acquire a new skill like surfing or wilderness survival, or your body is asking for a cleanse and some one-on-one time with an Ayurvedic doctor, there is a broad list of retreats available to you. Some of the suggestions for best women retreats are

  • A Boston Spa Retreat

Back Bay Boston may not be the first sport that springs to mind when you think of a health retreat. However, according to the 2020 World Spa Awards, it is home to the Best Spa in North America.

  • Yoga and surfing in Mexico

The fact that female surfers will compete in the next summer Olympics for the first time shows that more women than ever are riding waves for some much-needed saltwater therapy. SwellWomen, hosted by Hawaii native Lulu Agan, is a five-day event dedicated to empowering women by teaching them how to surf (beginners welcome).

  • Costa Rica Surfing and Reiki

Do you want to learn to surf where Gisele Bündchen surfs in her spare time? Travel to Costa Rica, where Iguana Surf, Tamarindo’s leading surf camp for more than three decades, is the best destination for a surf-themed health retreat. Indeed, it is ranked first on TripAdvisor among more than 205 activities in Tamarindo. Retreats are available all year and range in price from $270 for two nights to $1,300 for seven nights. Private lodgings, fresh breakfast, surf rentals and instruction, a personal rash guard, a surf excursion, and even video analysis and images are all part of the package.

  • On a Crystal Mountain, Emotional Healing

Book a room at The Escape Costa Rica named after a plant or superfood for a memorable retreat in Costa Rica’s beautiful jungle. This tiny resort, designed by a self-professed spa enthusiast, is only an hour’s drive from San Jose. The Vida Mia Spa at The Retreat was designed with Feng Shui in mind and is located on a “high vibrational crystal mountain” with views spanning the Pacific.
