Aruba’s Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort has announced the launch of the island’s first-ever fully-customized resort wellness program.

The program, led by wellness specialist Isabel Struve Rasmijn, offers customized programs in four areas: nutrition, physical fitness, mental wellness and mind-body balance.

“In the past, beach vacations were seen as a time to lapse from the day-to-day routine, which often meant diet and exercise fell by the wayside,” says Isabel Struve-Rasmijn. wellness specialist at Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort. “However, now more than ever, people are embracing the holistic benefits of overall wellness. They want to maintain a consistently healthy, active and mindful lifestyle, and our goal is to make it easy for them to do so while taking in all of the natural benefits Aruba has to offer.”

The program begins with a questionnaire prior to arrival, followed by the development of a special itinerary for either individuals or couples.

“A stay at Bucuti is good for mind, body and soul, simply by virtue of the calmer state of mind that comes with the soft white sand between your toes, the clear waters of the Caribbean lapping at your feet and the refreshing trade breezes blowing at your back,” says Ewald Biemans, founder and CEO of Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort.  “We are looking forward to helping many guests amplify this state of mind through the wellness program.”
