Sometimes it's challenging to free an entire week to attend an in-depth health retreat, and yet you feel the need to get away from the day-to-day and take care of yourself. Does it sound familiar?

At Serenity Ways, we are often asked: where to go for 3 nights to have a good time, disconnect and slow down, sleep well, exercise, rebalance the mind, nurture the body and the senses. Here is our selection of the best destinations for a short healthy getaway in Europe. 

While each of the places presented in this post also offers some of the world’s finest "full" wellness programs (7 nights or more), their short stays are well designed to allow you to cleanse your body and mind, rebalance your emotions, and progressively achieve optimal health. And as always with Serenity Ways, expect luxurious hospitality, VIP welcome and amenities, cutting-edge treatments, expert consultations, and stunning landscape.
