However, if you're a total gym bunny - a luxury fitness and wellness retreat held from July 14-20 is probably right up your street.
It's being held at the stunning Can Amonita Villa by Pilates Plus Dublin (which is run by the gorge Emma Forsyth) and Diosa Hayya - they're calling it "a fabulous seven days of ultimate fitness and wellbeing full of fun activities".
"In this retreat, we will focus on becoming fitter and feeling stronger as the week progresses, not forgetting our wellbeing and relaxation of course.
"It is a retreat based on feeling good about yourself, balance in health, fitness and life. It is not all about physicality, we look at fitness and wellness as a holistic process which includes your mental, emotional and physical self," a statement reads.
Apparently the tougher fitness sessions take place in the morning, eg Emma’s strength-building Pilate-sessions and HIIT.
In the evenings, the likes of restorative sessions, stretching, yoga, and meditation are held.
Paddle-boarding, gentle hikes, and beach trips are furthermore factored in, but the organisers say there is plenty of time to hang out by the pool, have a massage, and explore Ibiza.
There is an emphasis on fresh Mediterranean food sourced from local Ibiza farms. You won't go hungry but everything is super-healthy. As for alcohol - "you can also choose to have a glass of wine with your dinner or do a dry holiday" - either way, we reckon that the retreat will be pretty light on booze.
The villa Can Amonita itself has an outdoor yoga deck, a serene pool surrounded by pine trees, and a Bali house for massage.
The price is set at €1,750 per person or if friends or couples book together - it’s €1650 per person.
