Helios Retreats レビュー 

The Maldives retreat! If you’re thinking about it, DO IT, you won’t regret it. I can’t say more amazing things about this retreat . One of the most beautiful accommodations in an over water bungalow in the most luxe resort that you’d only imagine seeing in movies. Helios made this possible in real time. And if you think you’ve ever seen the most crystal clear blue water, you haven’t been to Maldives yet!
My favorite highlights of the trip were beach workouts with Danny, morning yoga with Katy, and group dinners at sunset. I also went off on my own for a little scuba adventure to see the sea life, it was spectacular, as expected. I appreciated the inclusive environment the staff provided to accommodate all fitness levels and demonstrate modifications as needed. I appreciated Katy’s acceptance to beginner yogis like myself, as I don’t normally strive in yoga but she was so patient and made me feel so confident in improving my form and continuing. This is my second Helios retreat (first was Mykonos- also highly recommend) & I already can not wait for the next one! It felt amazing to leave vacation feeling fit/toned, tanned, refreshed, and relaxed. As a nurse I desperately needed this retreat, I even brought my coworker/friend from my hospital with me. I’m so grateful to have been a part of this experience and will cherish the connections I have made with individuals in the group from all over the world. If you are a solo traveler and looking to join, this is the perfect situation for you to have a safe, healthy, and enjoyable trip.

Truly amazing!! 💙

It was an epic escape to paradise with fun workouts and yoga. Thanks to Danny, being a very motivating trainer, the workouts were killer! Adam captured the retreat beautifully, and Katy's yoga sessions were nothing short of excellent. The entire group was very lovely and fun, radiating nothing but positive energy. The movie night was definitely a highlight, adding a delightful touch to the retreat. It was a wholesome experience with a top-notch team! Highly recommend ❤️

Helios Maldives retreat…just wow! I had high expectations for this retreat but they were blown away on day 1 when I saw our stunning resort and overwater villas. Workouts with Danny & Adam were fun and well organised followed by Katy’s yoga sessions where tired muscles were stretched out…ready for more action the next day! Social activities were great too…cocktail party & movie night under the stars. Take me back!

The best retreat!! Anantara Maldives!

Wellness, Exercises and Paradise - all thanks to Helios Retreats. From the moment you sign up, you stay well informed about the retreat ahead with a one to one call with Hugo the founder.

This was my first retreat, and what a place to be. Not only quality time with my best friend, we trained hard on the beach with the best trainer Danny, who made the sessions hard & fun at the same time, amazing and beautiful yoga sessions with Katy and during all of this, the very talented Adam was capturing all these beautiful moments for us, pictures and videos. The whole group of retreaters were all lovely and miss our time together, especially the meals!! Highly recommend Helios!

My expectations were high after an amazing first trip with Helios to Mykonos however the Maldives was even more special. Waking up every morning in a luxurious water bungalow in paradise; then riding your bike across the island to the morning workouts is something I’ll miss forever!

Danny and Adam bring the positive vibes every morning and are the perfect hosts for Helios! Their passion for what they do is obvious, they really do ensure everyone is well looked after and having the best time. There was a great balance of exercise and relaxation during the whole week, plenty of time to work out, relax, snorkel, grab a massage and get to happy hour!

Thank you to Danny for the awesome beach & boxing workouts that were fun yet challenging, Adam for the beautiful shots captured to ensure we didn’t need to be on our phones at all and to Katie for her fab morning & sunset yoga sessions! Her kindness and encouragement for people who aren’t yogi’s was really appreciated! The Maldives retreat is going to be a very hard one to beat, it was absolute bliss from start to finish and an experience I’ll never forget!

Magic in the Maldives!

This was my third Helios retreat and surpassed all expectations. The Maldives is magical and a very special place for a fitness retreat! It was great having a reunion with the retreaters from Mykonos and meeting new retreaters. From morning hiit workouts to afternoon yoga and snorkelling and cocktails in between; you couldn’t ask for more. A big shout out to Danny, Katy and Adam for running the retreat and putting us through our paces and another one to the Anantara family who were faultless.

I will return!

Loved everything about this Helios retreat!!!
Location: pretty much welcome to paradise! Loved the charming bungalows, the view as you wake up every morning, and the sunsets. How about every time you look outside there might even be a stingray or colorful fish just swimming by you as if they stopped to welcome you.
And the customer service, impeccable. Food, delicious. My favorite meal of the day, breakfast with everyone!
The retreat: loved how from strangers in the first day we all became friends, a collective. I so enjoyed the kayaking, snorkeling, paddle boarding, volleyball, all the activities.
Our coaches, Danny & Katy: two amazing coaches, inspiring and fun, so much so that our workouts and yoga classes were never a chore but a privilege. Thank you for your dedication to your craft, you are a source of inspiration.
Our most talented photographer, Adam: thank you for capturing our precious moments. Through your lenses we get to relive these fun moments again and again. Beautiful memories.
This experience is a gift that keeps on giving. Came home feeling strong and fit, I have some of the most amazing photos, and most importantly I have made friends around the world who I hope to see again.
Thank you Helios!

My second retreat with Helios did not disappoint! The Maldives was incredible from start to finish and worth the long flight from the UK ten times over. Based at a beautiful hotel, with the friendliest staff and surrounded by crystal clear waters, Helios put on a fantastic week for us. Danny organised fun workouts on the beach and in the boxing ring, Katy taught us relaxing and inclusive morning and sunset yoga, and Adam captured all our memories and activities on camera. The team did a great job hosting us and the group had great fun together. Highlights included a movie under the stars, snorkelling, our waterfront villa, and happy hour! In your free time, Anantara had so much to offer in terms of watersports and a gorgeous spa too - would love to go back one day!

Amazing experience!! First retreat and it really exceeded my expectations. Will be attending more retreats given the opportunity. Great opportunity to meet amazing people and build new friendships as well as stay fit through yoga and the intense workouts. I love the whole concept of the retreat.it was well balance with good amount of free time and good amount of training time. It was a perfect vacation. Thank you so much for the invitation.

The retreat was in a magical location only a minute away from a beautiful beach. There was a variety of workouts and relaxing yoga sessions.
After 8 days of solo travel, I was glad to connect with other like-minded individuals and disconnect from my devices!
There were also some excursions to further explore. If you love to travel and want to invest in your fitness/ wellness journey, a retreat is for you!

This was my first solo getaway and im glad I went with Helios. Hugo was there to answer any questions or concerns I had on the run up to my retreat. The stunning setting in the Bahamas was like a dream. Cat and the trainers were so friendly and loved our workouts session and yoga by the pool. Meet some amazing people and memories to last a life time. Thank you for such a great experience!

This was such a fun trip! Katy and Ahmad's classes were so much fun and really pushed me to try harder. The chef Shauna's food tasted great. Having private beach access is amazing! It was so beautiful.

Helios Retreats was an amazing experience, I got to meet and learn from likeminded people and experience solo traveling in an exciting way that has made me want to do it again! The value for money was very good and Hugo and the team make sure to build in unforgettable experiences. Could not recommend more for anyone with any interest in their self care or looking for a fun break!

WOW, WOW, WOW!! Where do I begin?! Prior to my trip, I had all the information I needed and a super understanding of what to expect. Upon arrival, Hugo and his team were incredibly warm and welcoming.

The wellness hotel, Acro Suites, was utterly breathtaking. Spacious, beautiful decor, private pool, with a sea view - tranquility in paradise. Every meal was cooked to perfection and the staff were kind and personable. It very much felt like home for the week.

There were at least two sessions per day to attend. The resident yogi there (Jenni) was very calming, and the Vinyasa sessions left me feeling relaxed and uplifted. The coach, Josh, was brilliant. With a hybrid philosophy, he ran daily sessions with strong focus on mobility, strength, endurance and HiiT. Josh was incredibly knowledgeable and really encouraged us to achieve our best! He made me realise that I can push my body further, on a more consistent basis.

Outside of this, we spent time with others on the retreat plus Hugo’s team - but there was plenty of time to relax alone, if you wanted to replenish your social battery. The content creator (Matt) was there and what a creative, cool guy….he made everyone feel really at ease and you didn’t even notice him taking pictures. The quality of his work is incredible and he captured some really evocative, candid moments which I shall treasure!

What I loved the most is that we had so many opportunities to do other things outside of daily training. I said yes to everything, so it is hard to choose my favourite. Quad biking was amazing - exploring an abandoned city and riding with coastal views. Boat day was so relaxing - we swam, paddle boarded and snorkelled. We also had a lovely authentic local meal out on our last night. Acro Suites had great facilities, so we played some fun games of tennis and even went for an early morning dip in the sea at 7am….so refreshing.

I really could say SO much more!! Hugo is such a great guy and very accommodating. He’s running a very unique business, which brings together groups of incredibly motivated, good humans….I left feeling totally invigorated. I am already looking at booking my next retreat with Helios.

Thank you, Hugo, for what has been a truly unforgettable experience. See you for the next one in 2024!!!

This was my first retreat with Helios and it exceeded my expectations! The combination of fitness training, Pilates, eating well, and relaxing mixed with adventure and exploring was perfection. I met amazing people on this retreat whom I can now call my friends! Really looking forward to more Helios retreats in 2024.

It was my first time booking with Helios and my first solo trip, therefore I was a little nervous and didn’t know what to expect, but can honestly say it exceeded my expectations. Stepping out your comfort zone, although scary, really is worth doing!

Hugo has created something quite special; from the beautiful destination, to Vitor’s work outs, to Juliet’s yoga, to meeting an incredible group of people, it was such a good experience. Matt the content creator captured our time during the retreat and made me feel so at ease in front of the camera (I normally hate my photo being taken, so to make me feel at ease in front of the camera is an achievement in itself).

Overall such a great experience and can’t wait to book my next retreat!

I attended the Helios retreat in Mykonos, and had a great experience. Hugo and the team were welcoming and friendly from the minute we arrived and the location and views were beautiful. Shoutout to Matt who took beautiful pictures for us and helped me to feel comfortable in front of the camera!

I couldn’t have hoped for a better trainer than Vitor, his sessions were high energy and challenging and yoga with Juliet was perfect.

I loved that the retreat had balance between fitness and free time and was happy that I got to explore Mykonos. Feeling relaxed and refreshed after my break! <3

The workouts with Vitor were challenging with a fun vibe. The schedule had variety and was a bit flexible to suit the group’s preferences. Hugo our host was very attentive, and went the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable and that we achieved our personal goals. An on-hand content creator Matt was a great touch I didn’t know I needed - it meant everyone could be fully present. I would definitely book a Helios retreat again!

I’ve been following Helios for 2 years and finally managed to book my first one in Mykonos- what a blast it was!
Just a unique and enjoyable experience at all levels. Fitness classes were the bomb! The food was great and the overall atmosphere couldn’t be any better! Loved meeting new people and the crew! Awesome🩵🫶🏽

My second retreat with Helios & it was amazing experience unique experience in Mykonos. Hugo with his team (Vitor & Matt) did provide the best possible getaway from home. Villa joy is very unique location and challenging route for the runners. Thank you for the best room with amazing view. Once again Hugo challenged me in his way. Hugo, you’re an amazing host & friend. Let’s meet again in Portugal & Tuscany. ❤️❤️❤️
