Location

We have chosen an idyllic location on the banks of the Govuro River, a perfect location immersed in wild nature which will naturally help you feel energised and pure.

This is a wonderful place for sea activities and exploring virgin beaches. Our six chalets and three-bedroom villas are designed with sustainability in mind and the décor is Afro chic. All accommodations offer en-suite bathrooms, ceiling fans, mosquito nets and private verandas.

Without a doubt this is the best losing track of time destination in Southern Africa. The translucent waters of the estuary and Indian Ocean act as a soothing balm to eliminate stress and anxiety.

Nature & Kind Factor

Our Trusted Partner's Responsible and Sustainable Travel Policy

Our Fitness Holidays Founding Principles

Many factors contribute to stress but the challenges of everyday life make them difficult to escape. Those factors can lead to an unhealthy lifestyle which often means a decreased fitness level and unwanted weight gain. They also speed up the biological ageing process, which can rapidly overtake a person’s chronological age. Purescapes comprehensive holistic philosophy allows you to recapture the fit body and mind you deserve. Whether you simply want to increase your fitness level, decrease stress levels or tackle a weight problem, we can make it happen for you.

Our approach is simple. To effectively maximize your results, you can expect us to focus on these principles.

Optimization of a proper exercise/fitness regimen

It’s important to find the correct exercise program for your body, not only one that’s effective but also one you enjoy! At purescapes we’ll create the right variety, intensity, and consistency of appropriate exercise that’s best for your fitness level and unique physical needs. No matter what your fitness level is, we’ll provide programs suited to you both during your stay and for when you return home.

Effective hydration and detoxification

Your foundational health is based on the efficient rebuilding and repair of your body’s cells and intrinsic systems. The proper amount of quality nutrients can enable the body to be nourished on this most basic level. Allow our program to give your body the opportunity to cleanse and detoxify with the use of natural water and clean, organic food sources.

Targeted Metabolic Type nutrition program

In popular culture we primarily tend to think of food as a caloric fuel source, but it does far more than provide us with energy. Learn how to balance your meals and snacks to receive the ideal fuel, structural support, and metabolic efficiency to provide the well-being you want. Begin to experience the lasting results of eating for your Metabolic Type and feeling the best possible from your diet!

High quality, organic, natural and unprocessed food

Give your body what it craves and deserves: a truly ‘whole foods’ diet! Our menu will provide you with a delicious and healthy array of local food choices that will steer your body back to its natural and ideal appetite. This shift in your palate will make it easier for you to embrace such beneficial options back home.

Stress management techniques

Ideal health requires more than just a good diet and consistent exercise! Amidst the beautiful and peaceful environment, you’ll have much time to relax but you will also learn how to combat and manage stress in your life back home. Our staff will work with you to zero in on and create the best methods for a calmer, more joyous life following your stay with us.

Sleep/wake cycles management

There are many components of daily life that can wear a body down, and it’s amazing the wonders a good night’s rest can work. Take the time and learn more about the value of sleep, and how to effectively maximize its quantity and quality to embellish your health and life.
