Free People Escapes
Wellness Retreats

Intimate, expertly curated global adventures, from horseback riding through Glacier National Park to yoga in Corsica. 

Terranea Palos Verdes
California

The ultimate Los Angeles ‘staycation’ is this seaside eco-resort with ace cuisine, nine miles of hiking trails, kayaking tours and farm-to-table eats from Basque Chef Bernard Ibarra. And do seek out a chat with Joe Roy III, Terranea’s on-site falconer.

Nizuc Riviera Maya
Cancún, Mexico

A slice of verifiable paradise just 10 minutes from the Cancún Airport. The spa is world class (as are the in-room plunge pools), but the deal-sealer are the SIX on-site restaurants, among which Ramona’s contemporary Mexican reigns king.

Post Ranch Inn 
Big Sur, California

The ultimate Big Sur hideaway. She’ll helicopter in to a suite perched on a cliff above the Pacific. Book her an appointment at the award-winning spa and tell her to turn her phone on silent.

La Terrazas
San Pedro, Belize

Tucked one puddle-jumper away from mainland Belize, Las Terrazas is an island paradise. Helicopter rides over the jaw-dropping Blue Hole, serious ziplining and some of the world’s best scuba reef. There’s even a little shark diving for the bucket-list enthusiast.
