This Iconic Bahamas Resort Is Hosting Wellness Weekends Throughout the Summer—Here's How You Can Join

"A luxury Bahamian resort is hosting summer weekend-long wellness retreats led by integrated health coach Nora Tobin, founder of Nora’s Naturals, built around her four signature pillars—Restore, Perform, Nourish, and Glow—to weave personal wellbeing into a vacation without sacrificing indulgence. Guests can choose an immersive three-day program or pick activities a la carte; weekends include small-group classes, individual sessions, and seminars designed to offer approachable tools that are easy to integrate into everyday and professional life. Highlights from sample programming include beachside yoga followed by a glass of Champagne, opportunities for social connection (and passionfruit martinis by the sea), and a variety of restorative and performance-focused practices. The property sits on 35 acres of tropical grounds with three pools (including the Versailles pool featured in the James Bond film Casino Royale), a fitness center, tennis and golf courts, and a Balinese-style spa. Upcoming weekend themes and dates are Restore and Renew (June 6–8: reparative sleep, stress reset, biological age optimization), Fitness and Performance (July 18–20: metabolic transformation, performance nutrition, athletic recovery), and Nourish and Glow (Aug. 3–5: natural fat burning, anti-aging nutrition, and detoxing)." - Alessandra Amodio Alessandra Amodio Alessandra Amodio is a fine art photographer, writer, traveler, and dirty martini enthusiast who lives in New York City.

The Ocean Club, A Four Seasons Resort, Bahamas - Hotel Review | Condé Nast Traveler

"Not only will you feel like a celebrity here, but you might just brush by a few at this beachfront resort with a 12th-century Augustinian cloister and impeccable gardens modeled on those at Versailles . The 4,400-square-foot villas have infinity lap pools and louvered hardwood doors that open onto a private patio or balcony. Food and service are excellent—especially at Jean-Georges Vongerichten's DUNE. Enjoy a nightcap at the Library bar, which has the nicest bartender on the island. The newly renovated Hartford Wing includes completely renovated and expanded guest rooms and suites, plus a new beachfront infinity-edge pool, complete with a new bar and grill."

"Since its opening along a dazzling stretch of sand known as Cabbage Beach in 1962, The Ocean Club on Paradise Island has been the preferred stay of old-money patriarchs and traditionalists. Though much at the serenely posh resort has remained unchanged, the 105-room property has been modernized to meet today’s standards with spa-sized marble bathrooms, sweeping WiFi, and a restaurant run by star chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten. But it’s the feeling of a privileged, unhurried yesterday that continues to draw an appreciative upper-crust crowd. An on-site tennis pro provides tips for improving your backhand, Versailles-inspired gardens complete with a 12th-century Augustinian cloister offer moments of quiet contemplation, and rounds of golf end with martinis at the resort’s bar. These details, plus knowing that a personal butler and afternoon champagne and strawberries are included in the price, keep guests returning year after year."
