Experience Wellness Month This September
at Parrot Cay

July 26, 2011. (Parrot Cay, Turks & Caicos)—Indulge in some post-summer rejuvenation this September at Parrot Cay, one of the Caribbean’s pre-eminent, private islands.

With the arrival of wellness month, guests at the luxurious Parrot Cay will see more daily yoga and Pilates, cookery demonstrations with healthful COMO Shambhala Cuisine (by Executive Chef Daniel Moran) and access to some of the world’s leading experts and therapists.

With a range of new juices added to the COMO Shambhala Menu, guests have the opportunity to supplement meals with a self-administered juice cleanse. The Resident Dietician at COMO Shambhala Estate (Bali) has specially created juices found on the menu in order to aid detoxification.

Wellness month is the perfect opportunity for guests to re-energize. Whether it’s through fitness activities, nourishing cuisine, or simply relaxing on the beach, guests will return home feeling refreshed.
