Fiji is the land of swaying palms, pristine beaches, and a wellness industry so exclusive it practically levitates. And what better way to commune with your chakras than a four-night wellness retreat that costs as much as a used car?
Yes, Six Senses Fiji has once again teamed up with Fluidform Pilates – aka Kirsten King’s kingdom of taut abs and impeccable posture – to bring you their second annual wellness retreat from 12 to 16 June 2025.
But this isn’t just any retreat. No, no. This is transformative travel which, as everyone knows, is the best kind of travel, because it’s the sort where you leave with a glow so profound that people assume you’ve either undergone a life-altering experience or discovered the secret to perpetual hydration.
So, what does this exclusive retreat involve? You’ll need to read on …
In case your current wellness routine isn’t punishing enough, there’s:
According to Mark Kitchen, General Manager of Six Senses Fiji, the retreat is all about “nourishing body and mind in harmony with nature.”
Which is a very poetic way of saying that yes, there will be smoothies.
Because wellness isn’t just about bending yourself into a pretzel, no, it’s also about strategic nourishment. Enter: the Fluidform wellness breakfast, complete with living tonics (whatever they are), Fiji-grown microgreens, and the kind of organic, locally sourced ingredients that make regular food seem emotionally underdeveloped.
Kirsten King herself puts it best, saying: “Being away on retreat allows guests to dive into pilates and engage in intimate conversations about their body and imbalance – things they might not have time to address in daily life.”
And look, she has a point. There is something wildly decadent about leaving behind one’s cluttered existence of forgotten gym memberships and microwave meals to spend four days in a tropical paradise, discussing one’s core strength over artisanal chia pudding.
Now, let’s talk numbers. Rates start at FJD 10,243 per person. This package includes:
If you’re in need of a deep reset, have strong opinions about the correct angle for a forward fold, or just fancy a luxury escape where detox is a socially acceptable excuse for drinking green juice instead of wine, then this retreat has your name written all over it.
But for those of us whose idea of wellness is eating carbs and refusing to own a foam roller, perhaps it’s best to admire from afar and instead, book the kind of Fiji holiday that involves cocktails with little umbrellas and zero compulsory sunrise hikes.
For the die-hard wellness warriors, though? See you in the plunge pool.
