Uxury Health Launched by Centara
Bangkok (Thailand) – March 4, 2013 – Centara Hotels&Resorts has partnered with Luxury Health Retreats (LHR), a division of Fitcorp Asia, to offer a range of inspiring educational and recreational retreats for those wanting to combine health, fitness and weight loss with an enjoyable getaway break or holiday experience.
The program will include daily seminars delivered by motivational wellness specialists along with structured movement and exercise sessions, and instruction on how to design meal plans and adjust lifestyles at home.
The inaugural retreat in this new initiative will be held at Away Suansawan Chiang Mai, Centara Boutique Collection between March 2 to 8 and 8 to 10.
Founder of Fitcorp Asia and LHR Daniel Remon said that health and fitness has huge potential for hotels with their own spa and fitness center facilities when they partner with wellness specialists.
“Health savvy consumers are aware of the difference in quality of services and are looking for credible programs delivered by industry experts,” he said.
Operations manager of Centara Hotels&Resorts Paul Snow said that spa, fitness and other leisure activities that promote wellness have always been a core part of the Centara brand.
“In today’s competitive and ever stressful environment in which we all work and live, it is satisfying that we are able to offer our guests an opportunity to improve their health, wellness and quality of life,” he said.
“This partnership is a perfect match, allowing guests the dynamics of luxury and travel to destinations both within Thailand and internationally while at the same time reaping the rewards of a solid and structured educational program.”
Emphasis is placed on the four essentials, namely education, motivation, planning and implementation, leading to the achieving of early results in a comfortable, relaxed and encouraging environment.
“The growing need of consumers to not only experience fantastic destinations in luxury and be pampered is now shifting,” said Mr. Remon.
“Those who have already achieved certain goals and financial status in life are turning to education and knowledge with specific ways to improve their quality of life, increase their longevity, have more energy and perform better physically and mentally.”
Mr. Snow said that the response from the tourism, hotel and travel industry has been very positive.
“Centara is Thailand’s largest operator of hotels and resorts, and is also fast expanding overseas,” he said, “In conjunction with LHR we can offer retreats and programs that are both unique and rewarding.”
