If physical touch is your most prominent love language, you love a little bit of passion and heat in your life. You’ve most likely have held a leadership position before and you aren’t afraid to take charge or make the decisions! You also probably love your fair share of adventure and are an adrenaline junkie! People who fall into this type of love language aren’t afraid of a little bit of intensity and are incredibly bold and headstrong!
The perfect retreat for someone who fits these characteristics is a fitness holiday, such as the Fusion Fitness™ retreat at Lefay Resort & SPA Lago di Garda. We think this is a great match because not only will it ensure you break a sweat and push yourself, but it also offers individual classes in different disciplines of fitness, allowing you to try something new with each class. For example, start your day with a Kettlebell workout, and then switch to some cardio with a Total Body workout! This retreat also includes spa treatments to heal your body after a long day’s work, such as a deep tissue massage or acupuncture! Whether you go alone or make it a couples holiday, you’re bound to have fun as you increase your fitness levels in this beautiful part of Italy!

The term “acts of service” refers to helping others in life – whether it’s little chores that make life easier for those around you or serving others meaningfully in or outside of your job. People who focus on acts of service focus on the little details in life, and are often considered perfectionists! If you appreciate acts of service above all else, you probably aren’t the loudest person in the room, but you are certainly a devout team player!
A great option for the people who prioritise acts of service the most would be a retreat that pays as much attention to detail as you do in your everyday life! Though you may not expect it, we believe a yoga holiday would be the perfect retreat for you because there is so much under the umbrella of yoga. We recommend the Yoga retreat at Amatara Wellness Resort due to the wide variety of the types of yoga you can expect. So much more than your average yoga class, travellers can enjoy a yoga and life philosophy session, shirodhara, and even an abhyanga
Those who live their lives in service of others often don’t take enough time to care for themselves too, so if that’s you – this is your sign to consider a retreat that will look after you – mind, body and soul!

Quality time doesn’t have to be a complex operation. It can refer to a movie night at home, a walk together in the park, or even talking in bed. People who prefer quality time as a love language tend to be deep thinkers who always make the most out of any situation. People who fall into this category may also be into photography or journaling, as these hobbies are a great way to keep track of the beauty life has to offer.
If quality time is your preferred love language, we suggest an adventure holiday or a retreat destination that has many different activities to offer. Take your beloved time together and push it to the limits. Use your wellness retreat as an opportunity to take quality time to new limits and try things you never thought you would get to! We recommend the Fusion Fitness™ retreat at Forte Village in Sardinia. Forte Village offers an unbelievable array of activities, such as go-karting, nature walks, and rugby just to name three. Date night? We think you and your loved one deserve a date week! Make it jam-packed with new experiences that are both healthy and exciting!

Words of affirmation show your loved one that you care about them and that they’re on your mind. A simple “How’s your day going?” can have a significant impact on anyoneand people who appreciate words of affirmation can especially relate to this. If this pertains to you, it’s possible you’re the “cheerleader” of your friend group and are constantly uplifting your friends! People who are close to you may come to you for advice about something that’s bothering them and you’re happy to help!
People who prioritise words of affirmation in their lives may want to embark on a mindfulness retreat. This is because many people who seek words of affirmation often get caught up in the words people they care about say to them, so much as analysing tone and sentence structure. We often replay sentences in our heads to determine how someone feels about us, creating stress! This will be a great opportunity for you to ground yourself and feel more connected to what life has to offer. We suggest the Mindfulness retreat at Absolute Sanctuary because of the private sessions in meditation, pranayama, and yoga nidra! Clear your head and let yourself be receptive to love!

Receiving a gift can come in many forms, both wrapped and unwrapped. In the context of love languages, it often means picking up something your sweetheart likes on the way home from work, or getting a bouquet of flowers for your special someone if they’re having a rough day. If you enjoy receiving gifts as a love language, then you may enjoy pampering and luxury. It’s not a bad thing by any means to treat yourself with the retreat you know you deserve!
Continuing with this mentality, we strongly suggest a spa retreat for the lover of receiving gifts. Pamper yourself like you never have before and receive the care of professional specialists in a wide range of treatments. Our top pick is the Tarant Spa retreat at Borgo Egnazia, which boasts aromatherapy treatments, five unique personalised spa treatments based on your needs, and even Roman bath rituals. This holiday also includes dance sessions and a bicycle rental to explore the surrounding Italian beauty! It’s a retreat fit for royalty, and you’re sure to savour every second!
