A change of scenery always inspires and motivates! Spinning seems more fun when it’s held in a glass tree house with views of the Caribbean Ocean. A quick getaway to Saint Lucia, Turks + Caicos, Puerto Rico or Aruba can offer a refreshing break to help reset your fitness and dietary behavior to get your body fit. Four Caribbean properties have the programming, atmosphere and scenery to help you get in shape for summer. Check out 4 Caribbean fitness getaways.
