With 200-plus trails varying in levels of difficulty, guests are treated to varying hikes each day. After lunch, guests are delighted to nap before an active afternoon filled with core and ab work, weight training sessions, water classes, daily massage, and group yoga and stretching. Many of the activities allow guests to connect with nature s healing elements, taking place outdoors, or within the property s open-air romper room.

My experience here exceeded all my expectations. I lost 10 inches which I am thrilled about. More importantly, I have reset my body and have started myself on a new track to greater health. The food was amazing! Although I know I will not become vegan, I am excited to use some recipes given by the phenomenal chefs. Thank you to each and every one of you for your support, guidance, energy and enthusiasm. Spent two weeks at the Ranch from Feb 15 to 28, 2015. It was the best money I have ever spent. Hiked 140 miles (120 at the Ranch on 20 miles between the two Saturdays I had in Santa Monica), lost 10.5 pounds, reinvigorated my mind, body, and soul. I had left The Ranch being 100% ready to take on the world again. I wholeheartedly recommend The Ranch to anyone that has the volition to physically and mentally push themselves toward a healthier lifestyle. It has been a wonderful week. I came here not quite sure what to expect and I leave more relaxed, more fit, a little lighter with my body and my mind. The hikes were longer and more challenging than I expected but it was a great feeling to be able to step up and actually enjoy them. I have never experienced vegan meals before and everyone of them was delicious. I made many new discoveries about food and hot to eat healthier. The classes were fun, the massages delightful and the stretching class was so good! Love the staff. They were motivating, knowledgable and always ready to help. I will be back next year! The past week has been incredible. The hikes were challenging and the food was absolutely delicious. I hope to take home many of the things that I have learned here at the Ranch and incorporate it into my daily life. Overall, AMAZING week! I love the Ranch. It is a great start to getting fit, and the food is amazing. The staff is super motivating and really helps you to achieve your goals. Thank you!
First of all, the facility, staff and food are all outstanding! I would highly recommend it to anyone ready to do this for themselves. The prep was good and I had a good sense of what to expect. I came for the hikes and a kick start to a new fitness plan and fell in love with the program. I learned so much and I can t wait to try and apply it. Wonderful program here at the Ranch. I think what I appreciate the most are the new perspectives it provided me towards what I am capable of, how I look at food and how I prioritize things in my life. My heartfelt thanks to the Ranch staff and program designers. This has been a life-changing experience! Thank you for a wonderful two weeks. I did not know what to expect when I booked my trip. My expectations were exceeded. I am thrilled with the jumpstart to my weight loss. This was the perfect way to reset my health. I regret that my husband could not be here to share the Ranch with me. This was an amazing and challenging week! The Ranch is lovely in every way. The program was tough but I truly loved the experience. My fellow teammates were very encouraging to all. The staff did a great job. I especially want to thank Craig, Justin and Nancy for hanging in with me and helping me through the hikes. I also never felt hungry so thanks to the amazing chefs! I absolutely loved my week here at The Ranch. It was far beyond my expectations. I enjoyed everything: fantastic instructors, outstanding food, great accommodations, and wonderful massages. I feel healthier and stronger. I am definitely coming back. I met wonderful people at The Ranch, both the staff and my group. I hope this positive energy will stay with me until my next visit. Another great trip to The Ranch!! The food was fantastic. The Chefs were so personable and helpful. That is the biggest difference in Ranch 2010 and Ranch 2014. They clearly love what they do, they live what they preach and are eager to teach us all. Ulrica and Tremell really make it special and make you feel empowered. I love the new romper room but didn t love that darn hill!!!! My husband was super happy with the tight high rear end that came prancing in last night! Best 6k I could spend! I will be singing the praises of the Ranch, how I feel and look after returning to everyone I see. Such an elegant, relaxing, visually pleasing place to arrive. The décor, the landscaping, the little touches in our rooms, the colors, the texture, the lack of irritating chemicals all combine to invite one to relax and be nourished body, mind and spirit. And the garden is gorgeous. I leave feeling inspired, refreshed, nourished and alive! WWW.THERANCHMALIBU.COM
