Wellness covers all aspects of our lives, from mental to emotional, and of course, physical. And after being indoors for the better half of the year, travel analysts believe there will be a significant shift towards wellness within travel. Notably, with travelers seeking refuge in nature, which has long been a trend since 2018 according to Global Wellness Institute. By choosing a nature-based tourism product like Belize, you can stretch your body, breathe in deeply and soak in the outdoors. And on Ambergris Caye, the ritzy resort of Las Terrazas is inviting you to recharge body and mind at their private seaside refuge. Iconic wooden, over-water swings and white Pueblo Revival architecture are just the beginning.
Ground yourself with sand between your toes
With a 70-foot palm-lined pool as the focal point to indecisively lay in and lay out of at the same time as the centerpiece of the resort, its crisp, 37 high-ceilinged “townhouses” range in size from 1,000 to over 3,000 square feet. Choose between Ocean, Pool, Tropical Courtyard or Lagoon views in. The sleek, all-white boutique hotel boasts ocean, pool, tropical courtyard or lagoon views; that is, in addition to its open-air lobby, signature O Restaurant, plus on-site spa and wellness center. Recharge with a five-night wellness package alongside yoga on the beach or private yoga lessons on the dock.
Retreat to your Resort View Residence after a full day of exploring offshore, whether with complimentary water-sports equipment, or a snorkel excursion for two to Hol Chan Marine Reserve. Besides, you can do it all over again tomorrow with private sailing lessons. Breathe deep, and reflect during a 60-minute Relaxation Massage for two from Serenity Spa & Wellness Center. While you can nourish yourself morning, noon, and night, enjoy custom menu choices freshly prepared by the Chef with vegan and vegetarian options, and fresh fruits and juices.
