Pamela
Visited July 2019The hotel and surrounding areas are amazing and the spa treatments are first class. I keep booking again and again every year because I cannot find another wellness retreat of such great quality for such a great price. Health and Fitness Travel, here we go again in 2020!

Dr Perkinson
Visited June 2019I am very pleased that Health and Fitness Travel helped to pick Epic Sana out of my other two options for the Fusion Fitness programme. My holiday was outstanding! Very friendly staff, several great workout classes and nothing was too much trouble for them in terms of accommodating and being flexible with my schedule. The Spa treatments were high quality and adaptable to my preferences. I enjoyed the entire experience. It surpassed my expectations and I’m already recommending it to my friends.

Frances
Visited April 2019Everything, from the accommodation to fitness and from food to the nutritional guidance, was amazing and perfectly well organised. Sensational location too! This holiday really inspired me and I’m now looking to continue my fitness back home until I return to Epic Sana later this year.

Jenny
Visited February 2019Here is my advice if you are not sure about booking: If you want a wellness recharge, away from it all, in a fresh modern resort with fantastic Spa, food, fitness and Yoga, don’t hesitate! Epic Sana is simply great!
-
Diana
Visited November 2018Excellent for fitness and Spa. The programmes are well planned and they were flexible to change anything if needed. I met my goals and came home with great healthy habits. The quality of the trainers is very high, and you can relax as everything is organised to a high standard. Well worth the price.

Katrina and Rob
Visited September 2018Epic Sana is everything we hoped for and more! Everything was very well planned out. We were still able to attend the majority of group classes, as we had hoped for, in between our treatments and personal training sessions. They really compliment your fitness programme. We recommend walking to Villamoura along the beach (less than 1 hour's walk) and a trip to Albufeira for dinner. Best things for us were: fitness programme, breakfast, location, quality of room and friendliness of the staff. We will definitely return!
-
Margaret
Visited August 2018Epic Sana is such a great place, the beach there is second to none! I will be going back next year. As I travelled solo, it was nice to have both group activities and training sessions organised for me. Highly recommend Epic Sana and Health and Fitness Travel.

Jane
Visited July 2018My husband and I had an amazing holiday. Our room was very nice and quiet and everything worked like it should. The members of staff were excellent and nothing was too much trouble for them. Fitness is high quality and much more than what we expected. Great gym, amazing fitness classes, outdoor activities… 10 out of 10!

Visited June 2018My holiday in Epic Sana was simply superb. Highlights: relaxation, excellent tennis, amazing facilities, all modern and clean, great fitness/activity choices, great staff, delicious food - all round a most enjoyable fitness and wellness holiday! I was travelling by myself and the staff had just the right amount of engagement with me, not too much neither too little. Also, I felt very safe at the hotel, which is very important to me. Another point worth mentioning is that they scheduled my spa treatments and fitness activities in a way that made complete sense so I could take part in other extra activities too, and still have time to relax. They were very accommodating in changing activity choices throughout the week when I wanted to. Health and Fitness Travel was outstanding. Completely hassle-free booking. The consultant was always available to answer my queries, very prompt, responsive and friendly. She listened to the type of holiday I was looking for and immediately advised on the best option. I received one single email with all my travel documents, perfect! I have been telling everyone what a super holiday it was and I will be making it an annual event!

Visited November 2017Epic Sana is really great, everything was exactly as we wished for. The fitness programme is simply amazing! Thank you, Health and Fitness Travel for doing such a great job! Will book again soon.

Susan
Visited June 2017The customer service when booking the holiday with Health and Fitness Travel was excellent, as well was the service at Epic Sana! What a lovely hotel, the rooms are stunning with a good attention to detail on everything. The location next to the beach is stunning and the little commercial area just outside is very useful for any extra bits needed. Also great to discover authentic towns and villages of the Algarve area. I recommend this holiday to everyone looking to relax and exercise in great location.

Leila
Visited March 2017This place really is a paradise…The holiday was all I could dream of. Everything was organised and wonderful! The Yoga Classes are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!

Elva
Visited November 2016Thank you so much to everyone at Health and Fitness Travel and Epic Sana! I will definitely be back to you next year! The accommodation, facilities, cuisine and staff were fantastic. I probably would like to have more group classes but all aspects of the programme arranged by you was excellent!
-
Louise
Visited September 2016I had a fantastic time! Hotel was amazing, great food, staff were really friendly, talkative and helpful. My BodyBreak programme was brilliant, the instructors pushed and challenged me, which was just what I needed. They were also so friendly and lovely to be around. I have nothing to suggest as an improvement at all! Return is on the cards.

Jill
Visited July 2016It was a great short break. I had very strict requirements and you managed to accommodate them nicely. The weather was perfect and the facilities were excellent. Trainers and staff were very good - I particularly enjoyed the bootcamp and meditation sessions.

Joanne F
Visited April 2015I had a great time! Feel brilliant now and much improved after the 5 days. The resort was excellent and the classes and sessions were all superb so you can pass on my compliment to Andrè the PT and the excellent yoga and Pilates instructors. I feel really energised and fitter for the training provided.
The only negative aspect of the resort was the slight stinginess with drinking water in the rooms which was only replaced once, but other than that it was a great break and I really appreciate the service you provided and would easily recommend you to anyone looking for holiday like this.
Highs
- The extensive facilities and treatments will put you in that holiday mood and de-stress you from head-to-toe.
- The nearest airport – Faro – is only 30 minutes from the hotel!
- The wooden suspension bridge that winds its way down to the award-winning Falesia beach is direct from the hotel.
- Book an ocean-view room and enjoy beautiful breezy afternoons and starry nights.
- The wellness packages and programme themes interact incredibly well together. For example, a boot camp programme will include a number of massages.
- There is a 24-hour gym!
- We would definitely recommend trying one of the delicious smoothies, perfect for cooling off from the Portuguese sun.
- Enjoy a wide range of delicious food options throughout the day. The breakfast spread is particularly impressive.
Lows
- The Algarve is very touristy. So, whilst you have perfect peace in the hotel, if you venture out expect to see a fair bit of hustle and bustle.
- The beach is award-winning, but unfortunately not private.
- If you don’t go full board, the extra food and drinks can be a little pricey.
