Movara Fitness Resort

I can’t speak highly enough about Movara! This is my second time attending Movara and I couldn’t be happier. The food is amazing! The staff is wonderful - helpful, encouraging and accepting. They are attuned to their guests, making sure each person gets what they need. The fitness staff challenges you without it feeling militant or torturous - they make exercise fun. The hiking is fantastic! There are hikes for people at every fitness level. And the spa is great! I will be coming back again. Do not hesitate to make this investment in your health, peace and well-being.

Spending the week at Movara was absolutely amazing. Each of the daily guide-led hikes were varied and challenging, with obstacles that (safely) pushed me out of my comfort zone, allowing me to see a stronger, more confident version of my myself. The food was delicious at every meal, and while the portions seemed smaller than what we’re used to, the nutrition balance ensured we were never hungry. I can’t say enough about the guides, coaches, nutritionists, AND other guests. Everyone is so supportive! I will never forget my week here and am truly looking forward to my next visit.

This is my “Happy” place! I first came to Movara back in 2003 and I have been a couple times since then. The hiking in the beautiful red rocks is awe inspiring. The food is delicious and very satisfying. The lectures are very informative. However, the best part of Movara is the Movara team. They are so supportive , it’s like you are part of their family. They really do care about you. Everyone is on their own journey to wellness and they will walk with you every step of the way while you are here. I have met some awesome people at Movara who have become my friends. All I can say is this is an amazing place.

Had an incredible experience at Movara! The villas are new and pure luxury. The food was delicious, and I made great friends, but the best part of Movara is their program and their staff. The daily hikes were heaven and the classes and lectures offered were exactly what I needed. I was one of only 3 people who were there for the first time. Most of the guests were returning, some for the 10th time and there was a couple who have returned twice a year for 16 years. That says it all. Thank you Movara, I will be back!

Movara exceeded all my expectations. The staff was very friendly and always willing to help with whatever I needed. The instructors kept me motivated to always give my best (I will miss Sharon so much!!), and the food is delicious! In addition to that, the classes provide a range of tools to continue applying after the stay.

I believe there is always room for improvement, and in the case of Movara, it would be the quality of the rooms. However, this was something secondary for me, and I am completely satisfied with the results I had on my health. I want to come back, thank you for everything Movara!

I’ve been here three times and I’ll definitely be back. The resort facilities are amazing . Nice rooms, excellent exercise facilities, and the guided hikes are world class. We are Improving our health, loving our fitness gains, and LOOOOOVING all the healthy food! Best investment in health I’ve ever made…

This place is magical! Michelle and her staff are so welcoming. They truly get to know you personally. It doesn’t matter what level you are at, this place has something to help implement healthy habits into your life. A week of self care is just what I needed! Can’t wait to come back again!

Movara is great! The staff is exemplary, the food is delicious, and your days will be full of things to do. Lectures are informative and the exercise classes will definitely make you sweat. Daily hikes around the area are the cherry on top!

This was my first time at Movara and I LOVED it! The area is beautiful!
Great staff, hikes, workouts, food! Supportive staff …made great friends!
GO for yourself!

If you’ve ever thought about going to Movara, just do it! Went for a week and had an amazing experience. The staff is SO great. The food is good, the amenities are good and the program is really fantastic. You won’t be sorry you made the investment in yourself. I already put down money on a return visit.

I'm on my ninth (!!!) stay at Movara and I can't say enough about this wonderful place. It's the ideal place to come if you need a reset towards your fitness goals. The employees and guests are all extremely friendly and helpful. The calorie-controlled food is surprisingly tasty and satisfying.The hikes are extraordinary. The fitness program shows you what you're made of while you're here and the lectures give you tools to take your new-found knowledge home. The vast majority of guests have been here before which tells you something about the place. You won't regret coming here.

Just a genuine 10 out of 10 experience. They have really mastered the way to facilitate an "all levels" Fitness Resort. It is inclusive of ALL, and the group we had during my weeks was so diverse- all ages, fitness levels, goals, backgrounds, and genders. But since we were all here to get better in some way, and I think that underlying current of self improvement creates an environment that's just comfortable and accepting. I was in Group 7 (Advanced) and the hikes really pushed me. If you are already physically fit, I promise you will still get a tough and fulfilling work-out at Movara. They always have a "more challenging" option for those up for it! But, with that being said, there are 6 other buses so all fitness levels can have an appropriate hike experience. The methodology they've created with the bus system allows everyone to be challenged without being discouraged, and it's likely a huge reason for their success.

A few extra bits- the massage therapists were wonderful, the resort itself is gorgeous and clean, the meals were delicious, and the entire staff was above and beyond. Every employee, whether in food service, front desk, hiking guide, or trainer, was kind, welcoming, and simply excellent. My second week at Movara (I stayed for two weeks- HIGHLY recommend this) over half the guests were return visitors. That speaks loudly of the experience guests have when they come to Movara Fitness Resort. Thank you for an incredible two weeks, Movara!

Just finished week 1 of 2 and could not be more pleased with this place, staff is all super fantastic- helpful, encouraging, accommodating and organized. The food is really spectacular and I am surprised at how satiated I am after each meal.
I came here not really loving hiking and thought I would walk the roads instead but have found that I have enjoyed the hikes enough that I look forward to next weeks hikes.
Overall I think it’s a fantastic program and recommend it for everyone no matter the place you are on in your fitness journey.

MoVara is the most beautiful fitness camp where you can take amazing guided hikes every morning with really great people. The staff members are amazing and become like family . The food is delicious and it makes a huge difference when you get to eat Whole Foods for a week, with no processed chemicals. highly recommend!!!

Had a fantastic experience continuing my wellness journey. The mental clarity and physical motivation I took from the two week stay will propel me to achieve a new pinnacle.

Came out for hike week and had a blast! Every hike was a fun challenge with gorgeous views and great people. Even though my stay was only a week, I learned a lot about nutrition, fitness, and myself. The food is delicious, the classes give a good workout and are tailored to fit many levels of fitness, and you meet amazing people here (both staff and other guests) who push you to do your best while having fun.

This place is top notch. Whether you are looking for a health reset, chance to clear your mind, or a cleanse this is the place for you. The staff get to know you and care about your progress and experience. I appreciate the added touches like cold towels after a hike and the customization efforts for meals and hikes. You won’t regret coming here!

This was my second visit to Movara and I really enjoyed it. This time I knew what to expect, and Movara didn’t disappoint. By far, the morning hikes are the best aspect of the program. An amazing workout that doesn’t feel like a workout, with excellent hiking guides. The food is great, and I really felt like they significantly improved their lectures from the first time I visited in 2019. You can’t beat the price for an all inclusive program. Lord of returning guests, probably 70% of guests any given week have been to Movara before, and there is a reason. The staff is great, the atmosphere is welcoming, the program is good and so is the food.

Second trip to Movara and love it more each time. In addition to the wonderful staff, it’s a great place to jump start your fitness or health journey. Amazing hikes, great food, and wonderful workout classes! We will be coming back again & look forward to taking the lessens we’ve learned home to continue.

This is the most special place I’ve ever been. I’ve been coming here for years and I hope to continue coming for more to come. The staff, the people, the mountains, the food, the hikes .. I can never get enough. Thank you Movara, this place is magical.
