Location
The start of a wonderful friendship ...
Beauty arises from the sweat of your brow
Given the abundant yield from our organic vegetable garden extending to about 700 square metres, the 450 olive trees and the 120 different fruit trees, the question arises of who eise could we delight and nurture?
Pretty much anyone who shares our view that the best motivation is a proper reward. So you spend your days with active movement on the sunny west side of the island, then spend the evenings in the magnificent certainty of doing so much more than just being on vacation.
Workout in the open air
A large selection of equipment from reputable manufacturers forms the basis in our training facility with a floor space of around 700 square meter, supplemented by numerous rowing machines, assault bikes and SkiErgs. The main emphasis is on Functional Training and Functional Fitness. The separated Yoga Terrace extends to around 100 square meter, and is universally popular on account of its spectacular view alone. The mobile martial arts arena is suitable for sparring in classic boxing as weil as Muay Thai or MMA.

All of nature,
wild and free
In 1986 Madonna already knew about the unique beauty of La lsla Bonita. Unesco is of the same opinion, and promptly declared the island to be the third most beautiful in the world. We naturally did not want to miss out, and decided to create our Active Paradise in this ennobled biosphere reserve.
The secret queen of the Canary lslands thus forms the absolutely ideal backdrop for the most demanding training, the most luxurious living and the best organic nutrition.
