Unfortunately, we know that the week you participated it was very rainy and did impact your hikes and we were unable to facilitate a private hike for you with our guides. We plan about 2 hours for each of our hikes, including travel time. We utilize more than 40 trails for our hiking and the trail heads range from 5-20 minutes away from our camp. Hiking is a big part of our program but Unite is a wellness retreat dedicated to a balance in fitness, nutrition and emotional wellness. It sounds like when you arrived you were disappointed to find out that Unite was not primarily a hiking and yoga retreat. We are sorry that your experience was not what you were hoping for, however we are excited to have the opportunity to explain to others just how important it is to understand exactly what type of program we offer. The effectiveness of our program is of the utmost importance to all of us here at Unite Fitness. Hi Cecilia, Thank you so much for your feedback. In summary, if you are not obese and you are moderately fit, think twice before booking. That being said, I spent over 3k for a week there to lose weight and hike and I didn't get it. Third, the atmosphere is friendly and it feels like a team. Second, all the instructors a super nice. It's just a pity they are focused on the gym instead of the outdoors. What was good: Utah is amazingly beautiful, especially in October, when I went. Lastly, yoga is not real yoga, rather, a very, very, very beginner pseudo yoga session. It didn't happen and I got my own guides from the internet. I was also told I could arrange a guide with them. Not true we didn't hike every day and they lasted 30-60 minutes (the 3 hours include the bus ride to the trail). Also, I called before I booked to make sure we had enough hiking and they said we would hike about 3 hours a day. FYI, I weigh 122 pounds so I just wanted to lose those last 4-5 pounds that stick around your waist. I cut all snacks and skipped breakfast a couple of times because I was so full from the previous dinner and I still didn't lose any weight. After day one, I told them I was getting too many calories in my diet but they did not do anything to change it. However, they advertise they personalize their plan for each person's needs, which is not the case. Unite is designed for obese and unfit people, so if you fit that category, this could be the right place for you. I lost zero pounds and didn't get the hiking I was promised.
