A holistic wellness retreat spread over 100 acres, Ananda in the Himalayas makes a striking first impression. Once a palace, it is “perched on the side of a lush mountain,” Vogue said, above the Rishikesh Valley, with elegant rooms and suites. At the heart of Ananda is its Ayurvedic program, with guests on a “bespoke program” ranging from massages and yoga to physiotherapy and mental health therapy. Ananda’s principle is to ensure that clients are treated for what ails them, whether it’s stress or sleep problems, with an emphasis on “learning about yourself- even, your mind and body with you when you leave. “

At D Maris Bay, on Turkey’s turquoise coast, you are literally surrounded by nature. There are rolling, rocky hills, tall pine forests, coves, bays, olive groves and beaches – five of them. One of them is Silence Beach, an adults-only stretch of sand where music and loud noises are not allowed. One of the hotel’s highlights is its spa and group fitness classes. A holistic sculpting and strength training class “balanced my brain and nervous system, returning me to a rare state of balance before heading home,” Florence Reeves-White said in Women’s Health. Some classes take place outside, with views of the Aegean Sea and local wildlife such as Eleonora falcons and caracals.

It is the very definition of a hidden paradise. An adults-only 12-villa resort nestled in the Ojochal rainforest, expect to see more scarlet macaws, monkeys and toucans than people here. The only item on the agenda is making sure you feel relaxed, and that could be by taking in “the stunning views of the azure South Pacific Ocean from the property’s infinity pool” or treating yourself to a “Unique treatment at the Jungle Spa inspired by nature,” said Forbes. Enjoy the secluded tropical setting by booking a private session on the outdoor yoga deck and taking a walk with wildlife along the nature trails.

It’s easy to feel like you have the gracious Hotel Quintessence all to yourself. Overlooking the white sands and crystal clear waters of Long Bay Beach and at least a 15-minute walk from the nearest property, this nine-room villa sleeps no more than 18 people, giving everyone plenty of space to move freely. While you’ll want to spend time in the sun and explore the grounds, plan to stay indoors as well. Rooms are “spacious, opulent and uniquely designed,” said the Forbes travel guide, filled with antiques, Haitian artwork and “decor in brilliant tones of blue, green, red and yellow, which captures the essence of Caribbean luxury”.
