Re/creation Retreat International Edition: A Style & Wellness Escape
Mallorca, Spain
In the heart of Mallorca, nestled within a rolling Balearic landscape, centenary olive trees, and lavender fields, we hosted our latest Re/creation Retreat. Held at the secluded five-star resort The Lodge, this three-day escape proved a celebration of balance, wellness, and the seamless integration of style into our everyday lives. Our Re/creation Retreats are born from and connect with a cornerstone of our philosophy on modern living: finding your power in a life that is both dynamic and balanced.

A WARM WELCOME IN MALLORCA
We're firm believers that a holiday begins as soon as an airplane's cabin doors close and a cold drink comes to hand. With that life philosophy front-and-center, we welcomed our guests shortly after their landing at Palma de Mallorca Airport, and seamlessly whisked them away by luxury coach towards our five-star escape. That journey itself was a prelude to the retreat’s serene surrounds; a moment to take in the Mediterranean architecture, ancient terrain and azure-blue skies. Lunch on the terrace offered the first taste of Mallorca’s cuisine and customs - a languid midday meal, shared plates, and conversations carried adrift over breathtaking landscape by warm Balearic breezes.
Post-lunch, the afternoon provided an opportunity for exploration and relaxation. The Lodge's expansive estate, all lush gardens and scenic trails, beckoned us to embark on a nature walk along the property's private hiking routes. This recreational time set the tone for the days ahead—days that would be filled with both invigorating activities and peaceful moments of reflection.
As the sun slowly dipped below the horizon, we took the time for a fit-change, then made our way to the nearby village for dinner at Ca Na Toneta - an all-women operated, Michelin Green Star restaurant with an emphasis on local produce, sustainability and environmental consciousness - where a six-course meal of seasonal Mallorquin food awaited. As part of the restaurant's decor, the words 'Healthy Mind Healthy Body' playfully hand-painted in blue across natural tiles proved the perfect canon for the day we'd just experienced, as well as those still to come.
A DAY OF REJUVENATION AND CONNECTION
Our Day Two began with the gentle practice of Hatha yoga at dawn, a session designed to align body and mind in perfect harmony. This was followed by breakfast on the terrace, where fresh, local ingredients fuelled the day’s adventures.
The morning’s main event was a scenic road trip leading to one of Mallorca’s pristine coves. Road testing the fits from our upcoming swim capsule, our guests soaked up the Balearic saltiness and rinsed away any residual signs of tiredness from the previous day's travel.
A picnic lunch by the beach allowed for a moment of repose before returning to The Lodge for more recreational time. Here, we could choose between a swim in the estate’s pool or a relaxing session in the sauna - each activity offering its own kind of rejuvenation.
The day’s finale was nothing short of magical. An art and wine session in the orchard allowed us to channel our creativity while savouring fine wines. Sunset dinner in the lavender fields soon followed—a dining experience that truly brought the resort's thoughtful curation to the fore.
FAREWELL TO AN UNFORGETTABLE RETREAT
The final day of our retreat began with a Vinyasa yoga session, designed to energize the body and center the mind. Breakfast on the terrace followed, offering a last opportunity to enjoy the estate's serene setting.
As we packed our bags and checked out, there was a palpable sense of rebalance in the air. The retreat had not only offered a break from the everyday hustle but had also provided tools and experiences that would help carry a sense of balance and wellbeing into our daily lives.
The retreat concluded as it began - with a journey, this time back to the airport, where we departed with memories of an experience that was as enriching as it was stylish.
A CELEBRATION OF BALANCE
This retreat was more than just a getaway—it was an opportunity to bring the latest Re/creation collection into real life and real wardrobes. This modern capsule, centered on effortlessness, was designed to be the perfect companion for everyday life and our itinerary took it to the test, proving that from coastal hikes to sunset dinners, Re/creation is fashion that moves with you.
By bringing together style, wellness, and a deep connection to nature, the retreat offered a glimpse into what a fulfilling, balanced life can look and feel like. As we continue to evolve, these retreats help fortify our core mission—to make active lifestyles fashionable. To live a full life—one that is busy yet balanced—filled with variety, satisfaction and joy.
