Orient Express and Guerlain Unveil Luxury Wellness Retreat at Sea for 2026

Orient Express Sailing Yachts and Guerlain are launching a new wellness retreat in October 2026. Called Ocean Rebirth, it will take place aboard the Orient Express Corinthian. The fourteen-day programme will focus on holistic wellbeing during a transatlantic voyage from Lisbon to Bridgetown, with a stop in the Azores. The retreat is built on Guerlain’s holistic approach to health. It centres on four key pillars: nutrition, movement, mindfulness, and sleep. Guests will experience a mix of individual consultations, small-group workshops, and guided sessions throughout the journey.

Five experts will guide participants during the voyage. Amélie Demange will lead bespoke protocols and sound bath masterclasses using crystal bowls. Déborah Passuti will provide personalised nutritional assessments and host honey-focused workshops, reflecting Guerlain’s heritage.

Arthur Guérin-Boëri will conduct breathing sessions and lectures on its benefits for regulation. Julie Granger will offer a progressive fitness programme, blending dance, Pilates, yoga, and functional training to improve coordination and strength. Slav Marinov will also contribute to the programme.

Advanced technology plays a role in the retreat. The LongeviSkin device, featuring seven aesthetic technologies, will support the wellness programme. A tailored nutritional plan will be developed in collaboration with the ship’s culinary team. The Ocean Rebirth retreat will run for two weeks, starting in October 2026. It promises a comprehensive wellness experience combining expert guidance, innovative treatments, and a structured programme. The journey will conclude in Bridgetown after crossing the Atlantic.
