Welcome

to the World's First Wellness Route

¿What is a Wellness Route?

A carefully curated and designed itinerary that geographically connects diverse experiences, services, and destinations focused on comprehensively promoting well-being in tourism. Unlike an isolated visit to a spa, a wellness route is a transformative journey that integrates multiple pillars of well-being—such as high quality in service and infrastructure, mindful nutrition, physical activity, therapies, mental health, and cultural or spiritual connection. Its crucial importance in the current landscape lies in the fact that it offers a structured and holistic response to modern burnout and chronic stress; it does not seek mere temporary relaxation, but rather to provide the traveler with immersive tools and experiences that facilitate deep restoration and the adoption of lasting healthy habits, redefining travel as an active vehicle for healing and self-discovery.

Introducing a new era of wellness:

The World Wellness Route

For the first time, we are defining and celebrating authentic wellness experiences around the world. We are supported by Wellness Standards®, the world's leading accreditation body specialising in wellness. Together, we have developed an innovative methodology to classify, evaluate and certify destinations, experiences and services from a wellness perspective, taking into account everything from the organisation's history to the customer experience and world-class facilities, which ultimately guarantees unparalleled quality.

The World Wellness Route integrates the most exceptional experiences.

Travelers can now confidently choose experiences, services and destinations certified as genuinely wellness-based.

More than wellness tourism,

we promote wellness in tourism.

Quality Seals of the Route

Choosing an establishment, service, or experience registered on the Route guarantees:

• A safe and healthy environment.

• Personalized and high-quality service.

• Authentic and transformative experiences.

• A commitment to well-being, quality, and sustainability.

An Innovative Recognition System

The Wellness Certified certification process goes beyond simple categorization. In addition to the corresponding category badge, participants are rated according to the Wellness Diamonds Scale®, a tiered recognition system that visually quantifies the quality of wellness services and experiences. This system provides a detailed measure, showing the depth and breadth of a participant's commitment to delivering high-quality wellness experiences. Receiving Wellness Diamonds signifies progressive refinement and improvement of wellness quality, incentivizing continuous improvement beyond basic certification.

Wellness is much more than that...

Well-being is a constantly evolving concept that has become a global trend.

Broadly speaking, well-being refers to a state of complete physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

It is much more than simply being healthy; it involves an active pursuit of a full and balanced life in all aspects.

We invite you to explore our vision of well-being and how we apply it to diverse spaces, environments, and experiences:

We think and act outside the box

Our vision is based on a disruptive concept of what is normally considered as wellness, which allows us to go beyond traditional boundaries and offer you new and more diverse experiences.

By the way, what does "wellness" really mean?

"Wellness is not a destination, it's a journey."

Wellness is an ongoing process, not an end state.
