INTERVIEW: Nichola Roche, director of spa and wellness at GOCO Hospitality

"The programmes at KĒPOS by Goco have been designed so that guests who are coming for something of a traditional family holiday are able to embrace and enhance their wellness at the same time. And from our experience so far – this is exactly what they are doing.

"There are many variations on this approach, whether people come and take part in an intensive one-day itinerary or join a targeted programme for three days and then enjoy the last four days of their holiday, or simply mix it up as they wish.

"We believe our diagnostic facilities are helping our guests to make long-term changes, because they’re learning how to sleep better and how to eat better in relation to their metabolic rate results. If somebody’s giving you three days or giving you seven or 14 days, you have to deliver on this with results, because that’s a lot of time they have given you and time is such a precious, precious commodity.

"We allow people to come here and still enjoy all of the fruits of the vine and the food of the land, and this changes the landscape for wellness in this part of the world. We believe it sets a new benchmark where people don’t have to choose one or the other, they can do both. We want it to be a joyful experience too, then they can take it away with them. Whatever they learn here, they can continue to do at home, and there’s longevity in that"
