A wellness retreat on board the Orient Express Corinthian, during a transatlantic crossing. October 12-26, 2026: A time set aside for well-being, a pause for rest and regeneration, allowing renewed attention to oneself.
Lisbon – Bridgetown
In October 2026, Orient Express Sailing Yachts and Guerlain will introduce Ocean Rebirth, a fourteen-day wellness retreat on board the Orient Express Corinthian.
The retreat follows a transatlantic route from Lisbon to Bridgetown, with a two-day stop in the Azores, and is built around a program focused on physical recovery and overall balance, developed by Guerlain.
Wellbeing is an art
Ocean Rebirth is based on Guerlain’s holistic approach to wellness, built around four pillars: nutrition, exercise, mindfulness and sleep.
This philosophy brings together skin care, preventive health and longevity. Each guest follows a personalized program, shaped by an initial assessment and refined over the course of the trip.
The program combines individual consultations, small group workshops and guided sessions. In addition to the treatment protocols, guests benefit from a nutritional program developed in collaboration with the onboard culinary teams and Guerlain.
It also includes a range of special tools. At the heart of the program is LongeviSkin, a unique device developed by Guerlain that, for the very first time, combines the seven most advanced aesthetic technologies, including LED, plasma and radio frequency. It is supplemented by:
– Technogym Check-up Reviews
– pressotherapy
– LED masks
– Theragun recovery devices
A fourteen-day program
Designed as a wellness retreat, Ocean Rebirth brings together Guerlain rituals and specialist-led sessions.
The program includes guided meditation, breathing exercises, nutritional consultations, physical activities and customized treatment protocols. Workshops provide opportunities for exchange with practitioners, allowing for adjustments and ongoing individual follow-up.
