Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Loved the classes and that the pools are accessible any time of day. The spa is beautiful and relaxing. The room was great. Cocktails and dinner are great, but don't order dinner before you finish your appetizer or you will get them at the same time. Also, skip the farmers breakfast sandwich; it was barely edible so dry. I definitely got the peace I was needing, just going out for breakfast and dinner next time!

I recently stayed at the Civana Wellness Resort for my first solo trip as an African-American woman, and it was absolutely perfect. This was the best place to relax, restore, and refresh. I left feeling so healed and renewed. The resort grounds are beautiful, everything was spotless, and my room was very spacious. I also felt completely safe the entire time, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was calm and welcoming, and every detail was well taken care of. I had such an amazing time here and would highly recommend Civana Wellness Resort to anyone looking for a peaceful, rejuvenating getaway.

I very much enjoyed my stay at Civana! The classes were all super well organized, all of the instructors were very knowledgable and made everyone feel welcomed. The staff was very courteous and professional. The two closest towns were quaint, safe, and had very zen vibes to go along with Civana's same atmosphere. The spa was great, the massage was AMAZING and love that with this service you get to enjoy the amenities of the spa all day. Only thing I would like to see would be more food options, dinner was a bit pricey but wonderful tasty healthy food. I would highly recommend Civana for anyone looking to re-charge and re-connect with your best self!
