Best Wellness Retreats in Italy
Curated wellness retreats & holistic sanctuaries in Italy — handpicked for mind, body, and earth.
6 properties
Italy's wellness landscape spans a wider range than its reputation suggests. At one extreme, Eremito occupies a medieval hermitage deep in Umbria's forests — no Wi-Fi, no agenda, just the monastery rhythm of silence and contemplative walks. At the other, Palazzo Fiuggi delivers longevity science and cutting-edge diagnostics in a grand historic property outside Rome. Between them, Lefay Resort generates its own energy from photovoltaic panels above Lake Garda, Preidlhof anchors one of the Alps' largest spa complexes in the Vinschgau valley, and Feuerstein runs entirely on its own hydroelectric plant in the South Tyrolean peaks. Italy rewards the wellness traveller who looks beyond the obvious.
