It’s a little unconventional for a bachelorette party, but getting away with your bridesmaids for a weekend of fitness is a great way to get in shape for your big day – plus, there are usually spa treatments involved too! Here are four great resorts that offer boot camp workout programs – and some pretty great views, too.
Bikini Bootcamp, Tulum, Mexico
A celeb favorite, Bikini Bootcamp’s five night fitness getaways include daily hikes, yoga classes, cardio sessions, massages and plenty of time to relax with your friends on the beach. A ritual clay spa treatment includes a special moment where everyone involved can dedicate well-wishes to the bride. Five-night all-inclusive packages $1,700 per person for groups of five or more, check the site for May and June 2012 dates, to be announced soon, amansala.com
Costa d’Este, Vero Beach, Florida
Led by celebrity trainers Bonnie & Steve Pfiester (Steve was a trainer on the VH1 show “Bridal Boot Camp”), this weekend getaway includes accommodations, meals, boot camp fitness classes on the beach, health seminars and a cooking class. In your downtime, book some quality time in the resort’s (which is owned by superstar Gloria Estefan) super-luxe spa. From $500 per person, costadeste.com
Rancho La Puerta, Tecate, Mexico
This renowned Mexican spa resort (pictured) offers a Bridal Bootcamp package that includes seven nights’ accommodation for the bride and her guests, plus a one-on-one personal training session, 50-minute facial, 50-minute massage and healthy cooking class for each gal on the trip. Villa accommodations here are top-notch: think fireplaces, private patios and stunning settings. Seven-night, all-inclusive packages from $2,800 per person, rancholapuerta.com
The Resort at The Mountain, Mt. Hood, Oregon
Certified personal trainer Nate Seifert will work with you and your bridal party to create your very own customized bridal bootcamp session. Plan anything from water aerobics, running drills, hiking treks or snowshoeing journeys (depending on the season, of course). After all that hard work, reward yourself with a Bridal Body Glow – a 20-minute body buff and glass of champagne – at The Spa. Bonus: there’s bootcamps for the groom and his men, too! Prices vary per desired program, contact the resort directly for details, theresort.com
