The LifeCo Akra Antalya is a destination wellness retreat built into the five-star Akra Park Barut Hotel on Lara Beach, overlooking the Mediterranean. Since opening in 2014, it has focused on structured health programs rather than drop-in spa treatments, backed by a sauna, steam room, and pools, plus a dedicated restaurant and yoga space for guests staying overnight.
Programs here run from a few days to longer stays and cover detox, medically supervised water fasting, weight loss, healthy nutrition (including intermittent fasting and ketogenic plans), a beauty and glow package pairing anti-aging therapies with detox, a mental wellness track for stress and clarity, and a type 2 diabetes management program. Each plan combines nutrition counseling, natural therapies, exercise sessions, mindfulness activities, lectures, and raw-food workshops, with additional spa and skincare treatments available as add-ons.
The center is positioned as a luxury retreat, with reservations required before arrival; it works for solo travelers, couples, and families, since non-participating companions and children have separate activities while the main guest follows a program. In 2024, TheLifeCo was named Türkiye's Best Wellness Retreat at the World Spa Awards.
