 Hands up if you’re happy with your level of health and fitness. Anyone? No? Thought so! Well, a holiday is about taking a break so what better time to reflect upon your health and fitness than while on holiday, and hopefully, make some lasting changes.
A new initiative at the Novotel Pacific Bay Resort near Coffs Harbour gives your family the perfect opportunity to do just that. A stay at this very popular seaside resort now offers families the means and motivation to reach fitness goals-inspired by expert advice, delicious healthy food and a host of fun-filled activities.
Overlooking secluded Charlesworth Bay just north of Coffs, the Novotel Pacific Bay Resort has all the ingredients for a relaxing family holiday: comfortable suites equipped with full kitchen and spa bath, lush grounds encompassing a waterside golf course, rainforest bush walks, a massive pool, children’s playground and a kids' club.
Believing that “small changes can make a huge difference” and with an emphasis on having fun, staff encourage guests to integrate fitness into their holiday and have devised holistic guidelines based on the idea of “incidental exercise”-exercising whilst you’re relaxing, rather than embarking on a strict regime.
Along with family fitness assessments, the kids can join in a host of active games, treasure hunts and fun-filled swims, while adults can spend quality time in the well-equipped gym and discuss their aspirations with the experienced accredited personal trainers.
Then, of course, there are regional attractions to explore-long sweeping beaches, lush rainforests and quaint arty communities such as Sawtell and Bellingen.
After working up a healthy appetite, treat your taste buds to delicious, modern Australian fare at Charlie’s Restaurant. Here the menu makes the most of fresh local produce and the chefs will happily prepare a meal of your choice.
The ultimate reward, however, is savouring some of Tranquility Spa’s sublime treatments. Along with deep reviving hot stone massages, try the famed Thalgo facials, based on marine ingredients, that replenish your skin like nothing else can.
There is a catch however to all this healthy indulgence: you may end up looking very different from your passport photo!
