Salt Escapes

"The most incredible week ever! You won’t regret it!!"
The most incredible week ever!! We spent a week in Zakynthos with Mike and Amy (who are the dream team!) and it was a trip of a lifetime.
I will 1000% be coming back! Everything is organised so well.
The Villa is beautiful, the scenery is stunning, the workouts are intense (in a good way!) and cater for all levels, the yoga was exactly what we needed to stretch and recover during the day and the group of people on my trip were just the dream!
The food… it’s so so good, fresh gorgeous Greek authentic food, lots of it, and prepared by a great in house team!
If you are on the fence about booking - DO IT! You will not regret it!!

"Two trips down, already planning number three!"
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!

"My first ever fitness retreat and it won’t be my last with salt escapes! Couldn’t recommend this enough!"
I cannot say enough great things about my week at salt escapes and especially Mike & Amy, the dynamic duo, who run the whole week trip so seamlessly!
It was my first ever fitness retreat and it won’t be my last, I would highly recommend anyone who is considering it. Such an unreal experience and I have made some great friends along the way :)
Everything was so well organised yet the week didn’t feel too structured or restricted, we could relax like you would a normal holiday but with an adventurous streak. Everyone was made to feel at ease and I have come back feeling super positive & pumped. Exactly what I needed.
The people, the food, the villa, the workouts were all just amazing and I cannot wait to book my next salt escape trip!
Thanks for everything!

"One of the most amazing experiences"
This was my second time on a Salt Escape holiday in Zante. I was lucky enough to go at the end of August 2020 and had the most amazing week of my life. When a friend asked if I fancied sharing a room with her on the September 2021 retreat I jumped at the chance.
I gave a five star review last year, and give the same this year.
I’ve now been on my own and with a friend and can say it doesn’t really make a difference. It’s a group holiday, so you act as a group.
The villa is stunning - brilliant location, beautifully designed, with the most breath taking sunsets. And an amazing housekeeper who welcomed me back with a huge hug. It feels like a family home in no time.
The workouts are a brilliant mixture and Amy and Mike adapt them for your ability, and push you based on your own ability. They’re mostly on the tennis court or helipad, with views of the sea. And the yoga is a blissful treat to stretch and chill.
The run to and views of the ship wreck were just as special the second time. As was the brilliant boat trip.
The restaurant we went to was outstanding - the views, food and cocktails.
The attention to detail that Mike and Amy put into these holidays make them what they are. They work really hard to make sure everyone gets what they want from the week - and only choose the very best locations and accommodation for them, incorporating lots of little extras that make it the most amazing week.
I could go on and on.
If you are thinking of booking, just do it! I’ve been twice on the exact same retreat and would go back again and again. It will be of the most special experiences you’ll ever have.

"A fantastic week away!"
Beautiful location in a relatively unspoilt area of Zakinthos island. All the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, and always willing to tailor workouts, experiences and food to individual needs. Good workouts that were well programmed to be an ideal mix of challenging and enjoyable, fostering a good group dynamic and promoting camaraderie and teamwork. By the end of the trip it felt like I'd known the group a lifetime, rather than six days! A dinner out at Nobelos and a boat day allowed us to feel like we'd experienced some of the island, and not just spent the week in a villa, albeit a very nice one. Would highly recommend Salt Escapes for anyone that enjoys fitness, meeting new people and experiencing something off the beaten track! A massive thank you to Amy, Mike and Char as well as those as Villa Amara for such an enjoyable week!

"Book with Salt Escapes!"
I joined the Zakynthos trip and it was incredible! From start to finish I had the best time. We had a great group of like- minded people and we had so much fun over the week - working hard during our workouts but also relaxing at the villa, and having so many laughs on boat day where we got to see a bit more of the island. The food at the villa was absolutely delicious and so varied each day, and we also had a really lovely meal out one evening. Everyday the workouts were different - from running to a beautiful viewpoint, boxing on the helipad, strength work on the tennis courts and even pushing the car up a hill (as a group!) - I loved it all, and have come away from the trip feeling much fitter, stronger and more energised. I also really enjoyed the yoga, which was something I’d never spent too much time on before but was the perfect addition to the trip. The villa is beautiful and has everything you could want. Mike and Amy really looked after us and are so thoughtful in everything they do, and also made sure I had an amazing birthday whilst on the trip. I honestly can’t recommend Salt Escapes enough - I will 100% be booking onto another trip!

"Returning customer"
I’ve been to few Salt Escapes retreats and going to join Amy and Mike again in the future. Its everything you would want from a fitness retreat. The workouts are tough and challenging, the food is fresh and delicious, and locations are incredibly beautiful. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a healthy getaway and a chance to meet great likeminded people.

"Best fitness retreat out there!"
Best vacation ever!! This was my second Salt Escapes and it was amazing.
Last year I joined the Salt Escapes to Crete by myself. I joined the trip not knowing anyone and in a physical condition where I didn’t workout. I was a bit scared that it would be too tough for me and too much of a bootcamp, but the way Mike and Amy does the workouts it suits all fitness levels and they make sure this is you vacation so there is plenty of chilltime.
One year later, and I decided to join the Zakynthos Salt Escape. Going into a second amazing week with the fantastic Salt Escapes crew that literally changed my life. One week of workouts, insane laughs, new friends, food beyond measure (prepared with local ingredients by an amazing private chef) and of course boat day in the bluest waters I have ever seen. A week with Salt Escapes changes lives, and you will have friends for life (still close friends with the amazing people from my first trip).
If you are thinking of going on a Salt Escapes, stop thinking - just go!

"The best fitness retreat there is!"
Salt Escape truly is the best fitness retreat out there! Mike and Amy are really welcoming and lovely and the food was absolutely amazing! Workouts are tough and challenging but no need for any particular previous experience/fitness level. Have recommended to all my friends and will certainly go again! Thank you both 🙌🏻

"Greece 2021"
An amazing trip and a real life adventure! Amy & Mike are the perfect hosts and are guaranteed to make you feel welcome!
Perfect way to exercise, chill, eat and explore with a bunch of like minded individuals, a really great way to meet friends for life, I didn’t stop laughing all week!
The workouts are really motivating and challenge all fitness levels and there is also more than enough time to chill out relax whilst enjoying the sun in an unbelievable Villa that has all you need.
The weeks itinerary is great and provides a perfect balance of all the things that make a great holiday, boat day is so much fun and creates unforgettable memories!
The photos are a real bonus, Mike is an expert with the 📸 I’ve been on countless holidays and never get enough photos, that definitely will not be the case on these trips!
Overall, I can’t recommend Salt Escapes enough, my advice would be to take a deep breath and book! You won’t regret it! I cant wait for my next trip!
