Workout Away Retreats  Reviews 

I can not recommend Workout Away enough. This trip was absolutely amazing from start to finish. I booked very last minute and didn't really know what to expect.

The workouts were epic, the hotel - amazing, and Emily & Kerry (our trainers) were brilliant. I like attentive service, but this was next level!

I haven't tried a fitness retreat before, but I fancied trying something a little different. I'm 100% booking again for next year!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My husband and I booked a retreat to Mykonos and it couldn’t have gone better!
The Workout Away Team was fantastic, everything was perfectly organised, the trainers, Emily and Kerry, were amazing, so kind and attentive!
The workouts were challenging and entertaining, the bike ride was super fun, the resort was beautiful, all meals booked were delicious!
I will definitely be booking again!

I genuinely can't recommend workout away enough. I'm a beginner when it comes to fitness and I was made to feel so comfortable. The work outs are great- they're adaptable to the super fit and the beginners and are so inclusive. The trainers, Emily and Kerry, were absolutely fantastic. They really look after their guests and nothing is too much trouble. The hotel is stunning and the food is incredible. Even though you're working hard there is still plenty of down time to relax and enjoy your beautiful surroundings. I can't wait to book back up!

Had the best week in Mykonos with the WA team. Kerry and Emily were just amazing, taking care of everything and providing the best vibes and fun workouts. The hotel was great, with a private beach and the impossibly clear Aegean sea. There are activities, lunches and dinners included in some really nice spots as well as the hotel itself. We trained, relaxed and had fun, what a holiday :)

Lovely location and accommodation, friendly welcoming instructors, great with adjustments. Lots of thoughtful touches. The days felt fuller than i had anticipated, but was able to squeeze in plenty of sea swims. I came home feeling recharged and with restored confidence in my recovering fitness.

I booked the South Coast Fitness holiday as a spontaneous thing and I'm so glad I did. I had the most amazing trip, the location was glorious and the company fantastic. I want to say a huge thanks to Chris and Laura for making this an unforgettable trip. I was new to most of the activities but I took part in everything, Chris and Laura were so encouraging and there's plenty of options to suit your level. I'm a bit of an introvert and this isn't something I'd normally do on my own, but at no point did I ever feel uncomfortable or awkward, a credit to the coaches for making the trip feel seamless from start to finish. I also liked the little touches like the goodie bags :). If you're thinking of booking I wouldn't even give it a second thought. Just do it!

An amazing experience filled with Consistent action and a willingness to improve your health and fitness in a comfortable and safe environment.
I felt no pressure, just a warmness and kindness from the workout away team to exercise and enjoy the weekend. I would highly recommend this experience for any person, that just wants to take some time to workout in a beautiful location with extraordinary people. The Hotel was perfect and the staff at the hotel were everywhere and were so helpful. If i could give this experience 10 stars I would. Thank you to the workout away staff for being simply perfect. #Thankyou

I attended the Workout Away fitness retreat tot he South Coast and had an amazing time, the coaches both Chris and Kerry were lovely and made the whole experience feel really inclusive. The workouts were challenging and they offered lots of options to suits different levels. I would definitely book again!

I booked on to this retreat as a last minute break away and I am so pleased I did! The location, accommodation, food and activities were all brilliant. It was a really well planned out weekend with lots of activities to keep us busy from morning circuit training on the beach, evening yoga overlooking the beautiful coast line and standup paddle boarding. I liked that you could go at your own pace and it didn’t matter what level of fitness you were but you could also challenge yourself and the team were on hand to make sure you got the best out of the weekend.

The team couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly from the moment I enquired. Chris and Kerry were so welcoming which made a great atmosphere all weekend, it was a really lovely inclusive group. There were lots of special little touches like our welcome packs which made the weekend extra special. Thanks for a brilliant weekend! :)

I wanted to take time-out from daily life and was looking for focused-fitness fun in a bright and breezy location and that's exactly what I got!
Great people, lovely accommodation and well-structured activities (loved core training on the cliff top!) which were challenging at times as some were new to me, but also hugely satisfying feeling part of this friendly, cohesive group led by Chris and Kerry. SO glad I did it! You should too.

An AMAZING team & retreat!!! You have exceeded my expectations!! A little apprehensive as to what the dance classes involved (I have no experience) & the usual apprehension around travelling solo & waiting to meet those attending....I had nothing to worry about. The team were so welcoming, fun & genuine....it helped the rest of us settle in really quickly. I met amazing people & had the BEST experiences!!!...surfing, dancing & sunrise yoga in such a beautiful setting (hotel & area)...oh & some really good food too!! Even the unexpected extras...you thought of everything & created a FAB retreat! A HUGE thank you!...highly recommend this to others!

What a fabulous dance weekend with WorkoutAway - I can't rate these guys any higher. They had all the magical ingredients for a superb experience - friendly, open, flexible and expert-level instructors, a fabulous venue which served us wonderful food and catered well and imaginatively for Vegan and Gluten Free, the Best location in Cornwall right on the beach and close to the town, and darn it they even ordered great weather!!!!!! There were a lot of thoughtful touches which included a goody bag with snacks and drinks, as well as a travel pouch with healthcare essentials. The content was pitched at absolutely the right level - as a non dancer but fitness enthusiast the classes were the right mix of great music and 'challenging but not impossible' choreography, and there were other activities such as surfing and yoga. Everyone on the weekend got on well and we had so many laughs and I cannot wait to do another weekend with these guys. They are simply awesome!

I absolutely enjoyed this trip with Chris, Ella and Laura! Before the trip, I was a bit concerned about going on a solo trip, but the nice hotel room, great dance workout and lovely people I have met have absolutely made my trip! We had so much laughter while we were dancing Beyoncé, surfing and doing sunrise yoga. Chris is also a fantastic photographer who helps me to capture the highlights of the trip. I returned home with a satisfactory smile on my tanned face and the considerate goodie bag that the team has kindly prepared. I would recommend this 100% to my friends and plan to join the other trips again soon! Thanks so much TEAM!! This is SO worth it!!

Workout away was an amazing experience. Chris , Laura and Ella were wonderful hosts that made it their business to ensure that we all had a great time. They were thoughtful, helpful as well as running great dance classes and organising other activities too.
The classes were pitched at the right level with lots of instruction and fun to take part in. All in a a beautiful setting with fabulous accommodation, facilities and food. Can’t wait to go again !

I had the best time with Workout Away in Algarve, Portugal. Well structured fitness program led by experienced top instructors Chris and Amanda in a beautiful five star resort. Everything was well thought out and taken care off, from varied fitness classes, healthy balanced meals to amazing activities like bike rides, hikes and my favourite Stand Up Paddle boarding. Great balance of activities with a plenty of time spent by the pool working on our tan. Unforgettable experience. I’ll be absolutely booking again with Workout Away.

What a fabulous 4 days we had. Superb instruction from Chris and Amanda, excellent (vegan for me) food in a great resort.

A first class, superbly well organised activities break, set in luxurious 5 star surroundings. Both Chris and Amanda were outstanding , personalising the activities to meet our group's abilities, guiding, encouraging and closely watching us individually to ensure a safe but effective workout. Their attention to detail throughout the whole experience was excellent.
If you want a memorable, top quality, adventure activity holiday, coupled with delicious food and a lot of fun, this is highly recommendable.

I have just returned from the Workout Away Portugal trip. I couldn’t be more impressed with the whole experience. Where do I begin … hotel amazing, lovely rooms, absolutely great food choices - we ate like kings. Brilliant service from the staff. Chris has created something rather special here. A balance of working out with time to relax too in a beautiful environment. Ananda joined Chris in instructing excellent classes. They also ensured that we had everything we needed throughout our stay, nothing was too much trouble for them. We had fun in the sun and increased our fitness. What’s not to like! Booking for next year 👍.

Second Workout Away trip

Mykonos was my second trip with Workout Away (WA) and as expected it was great fun.

I cannot fault the WA team. Great communication prior to the trip and when you arrive in location everything runs seamlessly. Airport transfers organised, amazing hotel, fab welcome gifts and great food. The team are always on hand and really approachable.

Not forgetting the workouts…these are great too. There are a variety of different workouts throughout the holiday but the beach circuits have to be my favourite. Always a great way to start a day.

If you are wondering whether or not to book a trip with WA don’t hesitate, just book it. You won’t regret it!

Wow - so glad I joined! I signed up at the last minute to kick-start myself back into good habits after the pandemic - what an amazing team, offering and experience. The team are SO on it, make you feel so welcome, and I guess as a natural result, attract lovely people to their retreats too. We had so much fun. Every little detail was taken care of and the team really go above and beyond - it's really great value. Will definitely go again & recommend to others! Thank you xx
