Sangha by Octave, Suzhou, China
While most retreats offer some manner of spa treatment and fitness classes, this 189,000 square-meter property takes an even more holistic approach. On site are professionals — from a martial arts instructor to a life coach and even physicians — whose job is to help you achieve complete wellness. Treatments are inspired by a mix of Ayurveda, TCM and modern medicine, and can also include customised meal plans by dieticians and chefs. Built along the banks of Yang Cheng Lake, Sangha is also located just a stone’s throw away from downtown Suzhou — perfect for a quick reset in a sub-urban getaway.
