A first for Aruba: Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort offers a fully customized resort wellness program

If you are finally committed to working towards your wellness goals, there is no better way to do it than in tropical island bliss. Experience a different type of vacation with a complete wellness getaway at Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort. With its new, fully customized resort wellness program, Bucuti & Tara provides guests one-on-one coaching from a wellness specialist. This is the perfect chance to get a kick-start on your wellness goals for your healthy lifestyle.

Isabel Struve-Rasmijn, Wellness specialist and program coordinator, explains how this program uses a hands-on approach to help guests stay healthy, fit and feeling their best during their time in Aruba and beyond. The program helps guests achieve their wellness goals in nutrition, physical fitness, mental wellness, and mind/body balance.

The program begins with an assessment process, which begins prior to the guest’s arrival. This helps specialists design a wellness plan fully tailored to guests’ needs. Nutrition counseling is an important component of the program, along with a customized meal plan and restaurant recommendations. Luckily the resort’s restaurants have healthy meal options, including Elements Restaurant which offers gluten-free, vegan and vegetarian menus.

Exercise is also a component that can be added to guests’ itineraries, along with private sessions at Bucuti’s state-of-the art oceanfront fitness center. Other leisurely physical activities guests can take part in are beach walks, yoga classes, beach tennis lessons, water sports, and guided hikes at Arikok National Park.

Relaxation and mental wellbeing are the most important parts of the equation to a healthy lifestyle. Options for guests are relaxing on Eagle Beach, or specialized body treatments in the spa. Purun Spa, located in the Tara suites, offers rejuvenating treatments like anti-stress massages, which help melt away tension.

“A stay at Bucuti is good for mind, body and soul, simply by virtue of the calmer state of mind that comes with the soft white sand between your toes, the clear waters of the Caribbean lapping at your feet and the refreshing trade breezes blowing at your back,” says Ewald Biemans, founder and CEO of Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort.  “We are looking forward to helping many guests amplify this state of mind through the wellness program.”
