THE BEST WEEK OF MY LIFE! I don’t even know where to start with my review. Hands down the best investment I have ever made. I truly believe that what you get with Salt Escapes is unique. I have been on other group exercise holidays before and met amazing people, but this was something else.

My boyfriend and I just got back from the most incredible week in Bali. The villa was absolutely stunning and we were lucky enough to wake up with amazing ocean views. We loved the daily workouts and the food was exceptional. The team went above and beyond to make sure everyone was happy, comfortable and having the best time. We couldn't recommend it highly enough and will absolutely be back for more!

I had the most amazing week with the best people!! The team was absolutely fabulous and I can confidently say that I’d love to come back. All activities, accommodations, and workouts were great. Thank you for such an incredible experience.

If you love a challenging workout, beautiful meals, gorgeous views, and laughing until it hurts - give yourself the gift of a Salt Escape! Mike and Amy truly think and take care of everything from the moment you arrive until departure day. I don’t know how I’ll ever vacation any other way again!

Can not say enough wonderful things about Salt Escapes. I speak with my actions and am just finishing my second trip with them (there will definitely be a third). Their attention to detail is unmatched.  The best tour operator I have ever used.

I have just returned from an incredible week in Ibiza with Salt Escapes. This was my first ever fitness retreat and from start to finish the retreat exceeded my expectations. The fitness sessions were outstanding. The villa the retreat was hosted at was top-notch - it was perfect for bonding as a group and I met such good people on my retreat.Thank you, Salt Escapes, for an unforgettable week! I left feeling stronger, happier and truly refreshed. I can’t wait to come back next summer!

Salt escapes was one of the best things I have ever decided to do. I spent a week in Zakynthos in Greece and had such a good time.The workouts were great, yoga each day was perfect, the food was unbelievable and the other people on the trip were so much fun. I will 100% be coming back next year and telling all my friends to try one.

Ellen

Before going on my week long trip with Salt Escapes in Bali I already had very high expectations and I’m so happy to say they were exceeded 10 fold. Amy and Mike have planned and organised every detail of the trip to make it as enjoyable for the guests as possible.

Susan

Honestly, I don’t know if I can ever go on a vacation or holiday the way I used to before. Salt Escapes in Menorca far exceeded my expectations, and I already had pretty high hopes. The scenery - breathtaking, the food - fresh, healthy & delicious, the workouts - challenging & exhilarating, the friendships you form, the hospitality of Mike & Amy and of the villa staff - it's simply unmatched.

Chris

I’m not exaggerating when I say the week I spent with Salt Escapes was probably one of the best weeks of my life!It was the first time I’ve ever gone on a solo trip let alone half way across the world - and I can safely say I did not feel alone for one second! So don’t even think about it, book the trip and go. I guarantee it’ll be one of your most memorable trips ever!

Caroline

It’s hard to put into words, but a Salt Escapes trip is truly a magical experience. You will eat well, work out well, rest well, and have the best time doing it. I promise, it’s the best money you’ll spend on yourself. Warning: you may become addicted.

My week at Salt Escapes surpassed all of my expectations. Set in a beautiful location, with high-end accommodation, you get a week of challenging workouts (with the option of doing multiple per day, if you're so inclined), professional (and much-needed) recovery sessions, and outstanding food cooked by private chefs to fuel you through the week. Attention to detail is key, and they don't miss a trick here.

"I can’t put into words just how amazing Salt Escapes is! Mike & Amy have truly created something special, bringing together like-minded people for the most incredible experience.
I’ve done two trips (Zakynthos and Costa Rica) and am already planning trip number three! Salt Escapes is the perfect balance of adventure, fitness and fun. The team are so welcoming, the workouts are challenging, but, rewarding, and there is good balance of activity and downtime. If you’re even thinking about it, just do it!"

“Is it possible to give 6 stars out of 5? Mike and Amy have built something incredible with Salt Escapes. It's the perfect holiday - so well balanced between working out, relaxing, making new friends, and eating delicious food. It's one of the best holidays I've ever had, and will not hesitate to book another one for next year. The trips are for EVERYONE! The villa is stunning, the views are unmatched, and the day on the boat is just perfect. Best week ever 🥰”

"Fantastic week with top tier trainers, diverse individual and team-based work-outs along with wholesome/high-quality restaurant grade food to fuel you through the sessions (seconds encouraged). Plenty to do away from exercise (boat trips, downtime etc) and left feeling much fitter and stronger as well as surprisingly refreshed."

The hosts, Mike and Amy, are genuine and caring people who went out of their way to ensure all was taken care of and each person was enjoying their time. If you are looking for a trip that focuses on fitness, healthy eating, and socializing, all while staying in a luxurious house, look no further : )"
