1. Sun Salutations by the Sea
Awaken your body with sunrise yoga in the Zen Garden as the morning sun warms
your face. If Pilates, meditation, HIIT or Socacise are more your thing, you can join a
class…no stress (naturally). Each activity is part of Sonesta Resorts 3-night minimum
SunFit Body + Lifestyle Program. As is the selection of healthy menu options curated
by the resident chef. While relaxing in your room, a daily vitality drink will be deliv-
ered. The program offers a one-category room upgrade.
2. Duck Out of Reality on a Midweek Getaway
Choose “The Midweek Unwind” package to detach from daily pressures. Your stay
begins with a calming in-room welcome featuring healing herbal teas crafted to
relieve stress, support detoxification, improve sleep, and elevate your mood.
Unwind further with a 25-minute neck and back massage at Serenity Spa, then
wander the tropical grounds as you decide whether to join an afternoon dance class
or simply savour the serene vibe.
3. An Island Flow Massage in a Cliffside Gazebo
A cliffside massage at Serenity Spa is a must. For this aromatherapy journey, choose
a customized fragrance like sweet orange and bergamot to reduce anxiety or lavender
and sandalwood to help ease tension. Skilled therapists help boost circulation and
encourage relaxation with the array of massages on offer. Scroll the wellness offer-
ings on a resort iPad from the comfort of your poolside lounge chair, or book a
tailored fitness consultation.
4. Workouts with Wow Views
Designed with breathtaking views of an impossibly turquoise sea, the Ocean Point
fitness centre has ample cardiovascular workout and weight-training equipment. If
you’d rather do laps, the signature Edge Pool, a cliffside, zero-entry pool, awaits. In
the evening, reward yourself with a specialty cocktail at the Cloud 9 Rooftop Bar.
Enjoy live music and some of the island’s best plane-spotting views, and then con-
tinue the wow factor at Azul for a delish dinner of freshly caught fish.
5. And So to Bed
There’s nothing better than sinking into a juicy book on vacation. But if you don’t
want to lug that 745-page novel with you, you’ll love Sonesta Resorts new Bedside
Reading Program. Leaning into studies that just six minutes of reading can reduce
stress by up to 68 percent, the program offers complimentary access to a curated
selection of e-books, audiobooks, podcasts and meditations. Choose between time-
less classics, thrillers, business insights, and children’s stories. The download is
yours to keep.
