Summer time is upon us and we all know what that means: soaring through the air on a trapeze in the light blue skyline of Turks and Caicos.
You heard me right. The nextdestination for you and your buddies is the gorgeous Club MedTurkoise property in Grace Bay, Turks and Caicos.
Not only is Turkoise a relaxinggetaway, it is also North America’s only adult-only resort. This allows forathletes, veteran tri-athletes and just the wellness-enthusiasts to sit back,hang out and be the spoiled one for once.
For those of you who are workoutjunkies like myself, the resort has also recently opened a newly renovated24-hour wellness center with state-of-the-art equipment for a fully-bodyworkout, including cardio machines, dynamic and static weights and open spacesfor bodyweight workouts.
After a sundown, or sunup, gymsession, you can hop into the 24-hour pool that boasts an infinity vibeoverlooking the turquoise water of the Atlantic Ocean. There you can experiencepoolside service to get your post-workout protein and carbs to replenish yourbody with some of the finest locally sourced options, served with a friendlyClub Med “Gracious Organizer” smile – GraciousOrganizer is the name of the staff on-site. Worldwide, this is the name of thestaffers that are on each of the Club Med properties.
If you are not ready to settledown poolside, then you can step over to the high-flying trapeze where you willlearn the ropes (pun definitely intended) and be able to learn from trainedgymnasts who are working on-property throughout the year. Or you can grab yourpartner, or group, and have a tennis match on the opposite side of the grounds.
Tonote: each Club Med location has both land and sea activities, depending onwhich resort you are retreating too.
Speaking of sea activities, at theTurkoise property, you can also take to the water and experience kayaking,paddle-boarding, sailing and snorkeling in the clear ocean.
Once you have your fix of activities,you can use the Club Med app that will translate to your designated resort andreserve a beachside, outdoor spa treatment. This spa day will allow you torelax with the sounds of the island, as you are taken to an oasis of your ownwith bespoke therapeutic massages.
Throughout your stay, you can hopon over to the few restaurant establishments at Turkoise to grab a quick bitefrom Sharkies Grill and Beach Bar for a snack or for sunset happy hour. If youbuild up your appetite from the sun-soaked day, you can then freshen up and eatat the gorgeous buffet in Grace Bay Restaurant.
Each night before retreating toyour Deluxe suite, be sure to get your cardio on with the nightly dance partiessurrounding the bar or watch the themed entertainment that is listed each weekin the giant theater. These options include talent shows, circus acts and muchmore.
