The Amalfi Coast Health and Wellness Retreat
Dolce Vitality is tough. But it’s also life-affirming. Against the magical backdrop of one of the world’s most spectacular coastlines, this weeklong fitness, detox and weight-loss retreat will hone you, sculpt you, cleanse you and reboot you. You will conquer mountains. You will retune your five senses. You will sweat out toxins and replace them with M
editerranean goodness. You will refocus mind and body. Based at renowned Positano resort Le Sirenuse, Dolce Vitality takes place just twice a year, in the peace of early spring and late fall, when the Amalfi Coast sparkles like a freshly painted canvas. The retreat taps into the age-old culture and folk wisdom of this natural paradise, using its network of ancient footpaths as a panoramic open-air gym, traversing lemon and olive groves, passing ancient chapels and shrines, climbing winding stairways to tiny perched villages with sweeping sea views. It releases this vertical orchard’s scents and flavours in lean but succulent vegan meals. It tones and soothes the body and mind via yoga, meditation, breath work, pilates and restorative massages and spa treatments. Running from Sunday to Saturday, the retreat embraces:
- Six nights’ accommodation in a sea-facing room at Le Sirenuse, which is open only exclusively to Dolce Vitality guests for the entire week
- Five days of magnificent guided treks, four in the mountains surrounding Positano and one on Mount Vesuvius
- A one-on-one initial assessment with our nutritionist, including body-mass testing and optional cardio testing
- A complete, holistic menu of vegan meals prepared by our Michelin-starred chef, accompanied by natural beverages and infusions
- Morning and evening yoga sessions with meditation and breath work
- Afternoon pilates
- Daily restorative massages and spa treatments
- Access to the hotel’s swimming pool, sauna and Turkish bath
- Entry to Positano’s recently excavated Roman Villa and Mount Vesuvius National Park
- All transfers, including pick-up and set-down at Naples train station or airport
During Dolce Vitality, Le Sirenuse’s restaurant, bar and room service will only provide food and beverages that meet the retreat’s nutritional goals. Just twenty places are available on each of two annual retreats (six nights, Sunday to Saturday) at a cost of €6,000 per person, irrespective of whether guests are individual participants in single-occupancy rooms or couples who wish to share.
