overview
details
Welcome to your private Italian haven: a stunning, historic villa perched on the cliffs of the Sorrento Peninsula. For six magical days, the entire estate—including the staff and ancient guest rooms—is exclusively yours.
This is a full property buyout, meaning you and your fellow guests (just 15 total) will share the villa like a private home—one filled with movement, conversation, and unforgettable moments.
Each day invites you into something new: a sunrise sweat session, a chef-prepared feast, a boat ride to Capri, or a wine-fueled sunset chat by the pool. Every experience is crafted for connection, laughter, and restoration.
You’ll leave not only stronger and more energized—but also filled with stories you’ll be telling for years.
You wake to the sound of the sea and step into the sun-drenched terrace for a morning BBS workout with Simone and Nathan—energizing, empowering, and tailored just for you.
After a nourishing breakfast prepared by our private chef, you set off on a boat ride along the Amalfi Coast or wander the cobblestone streets of Sorrento, gelato in hand.
Long, laughter-filled lunches unfold at seaside restaurants, followed by time to relax by the pool, soak in the view, or explore local boutiques.
As golden hour sets in, you return for a restorative stretch or workshop, before gathering for a candlelit dinner with the group—sharing stories, clinking glasses, and soaking up the magic of the moment.
Every day is a vibrant balance of movement, indulgence, connection, and joy.
This retreat is for anyone ready to press pause on routine—and press play on joy, movement, and deep connection.
Whether you’re a woman, man, couple, or solo traveler, you’re welcome here. You might be a fitness enthusiast, a foodie, a dreamer—or someone simply seeking a reset.
If you crave inspiration, meaningful community, and a getaway that leaves you feeling more alive than ever before, this is for you.
No matter where you are in your wellness journey, Simone de la Rue and Nathan will guide you through intentional, energizing workouts tailored to your needs.
Expect to sweat hard, laugh harder, and reconnect with the strongest, most vibrant version of yourself.
Because this isn’t your typical retreat—it’s a reclamation. Of energy. Of joy. Of vitality.
Join internationally renowned trainers Simone and Nathan for a week on the Amalfi Coast that blends signature Body By Simone movement with mindful indulgence and soul-stirring scenery.
You’ll train in a way that awakens your body and mind—then slow down to sip wine, savor handmade meals, and watch the sun melt into the sea. This is about intensity and intimacy—equal parts sweat and sweetness.
And the best part? Every detail is taken care of, just for you.

description
La Tùja – Relais du Parc is an elegant historic villa tucked away in the charming town of Vico Equense, on the Sorrento Peninsula. Surrounded by Mediterranean gardens and sweeping sea views, the property offers an intimate and peaceful atmosphere—perfect for those seeking a refined escape with authentic Italian soul.
The villa’s timeless character is reflected in its antique-filled rooms, vaulted ceilings, and carefully preserved architecture. Each space blends old-world charm with contemporary comfort, creating a warm and welcoming setting for rest, connection, and inspiration. Whether you're enjoying a quiet morning on the terrace or a shared meal under the stars, La Tùja feels both grand and grounding.
Ideally located just minutes from Sorrento, Positano, and the Amalfi Coast, La Tùja is your private sanctuary in one of Italy’s most iconic regions. From lemon-scented breezes to unforgettable sunsets, every moment here invites you to slow down, reconnect, and fully immerse yourself in la dolce vita.
Each room at La Tùja is uniquely designed, offering a harmonious blend of rustic elegance and modern comfort. Think handcrafted tile floors, exposed wooden beams, antique furniture, and soft, neutral tones that reflect the natural beauty of the coastline. Many rooms feature private balconies or garden views, creating a peaceful, immersive experience that feels both luxurious and deeply personal. With only a handful of thoughtfully curated rooms, guests can expect quiet, comfort, and an unmistakable sense of home.
Imagine waking each morning to the scent of lemon trees and the sound of waves crashing below. Our Amalfi Coast retreat is more than just a getaway—it's a soul-nourishing experience designed to reconnect you with joy, balance, and beauty. Guided by world-class wellness leaders, you’ll move your body with purpose, savor fresh Italian cuisine, and explore the iconic coastal gems of Positano, Capri, and Amalfi. From sunrise stretches to sunset toasts, every moment is curated for deep connection, personal renewal, and unapologetic indulgence—all set against the breathtaking backdrop of one of Italy’s most iconic destinations.
The Sorrento Peninsula is one of Italy’s most breathtaking coastal regions, stretching between the Gulf of Naples and the Gulf of Salerno. Known for its dramatic cliffs, lemon groves, and sweeping views of the sea, it offers a perfect blend of natural beauty, cultural richness, and timeless charm. Home to picturesque towns like Sorrento, Vico Equense, and Massa Lubrense, the peninsula is a gateway to iconic destinations such as Capri, Positano, and the Amalfi Coast. Yet it retains a slower, more authentic rhythm—where locals linger over espresso, fishermen bring in the day’s catch, and the scent of citrus lingers in the air. Whether you're exploring coastal trails, indulging in handmade pasta, or simply watching the sun set over Mount Vesuvius, the Sorrento Peninsula invites you to embrace la dolce vita at its most soulful.
Frozen in time by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, Pompeii is one of the most extraordinary archaeological sites in the world. Walking through its ancient streets feels like stepping back nearly 2,000 years—where preserved villas, bathhouses, temples, and marketplaces tell the vivid story of a thriving Roman city halted in an instant. This UNESCO World Heritage site offers a rare and moving glimpse into daily life in ancient Rome, from intricate mosaics and frescoes to graffiti etched into stone walls. With Vesuvius looming in the distance, Pompeii is not only a historical wonder but also a powerful reminder of nature’s force and time’s passage. Visiting Pompeii is an unforgettable experience—one that stirs awe, reflection, and deep appreciation for the richness of the past.
Each destination along the Amalfi Coast offers its own kind of magic—and Positano, Amalfi, and Capri are the crown jewels. Positano is a dreamlike vertical village, where pastel-hued houses tumble down the cliffs to meet the sea. Famed for its chic boutiques, winding stone stairways, and postcard-perfect views, Positano is where glamour meets Mediterranean ease. Whether you're wandering its charming alleys or lounging on the pebbled beach, it’s pure enchantment at every turn. Amalfi, once a powerful maritime republic, exudes old-world charm and elegance. Its striking cathedral, sunlit piazzas, and coastal promenades offer a slower, more historic rhythm. Here, you can sip limoncello in a quiet café, explore artisan paper shops, or simply take in the beauty of the sea meeting centuries of culture. Just across the water, Capri rises like a jewel from the Tyrrhenian Sea. Known for its dramatic cliffs, turquoise grottoes, and upscale flair, this island offers both natural wonder and refined indulgence. From a boat ride through the Blue Grotto to a leisurely stroll in the glamorous Piazzetta, Capri is unforgettable in every sense. Together, these three destinations create a tapestry of beauty, history, and soul—each one offering a new perspective on la dolce vita.
