MISSION: This mission of Vita Vie Retreat is about helping people find a healthy balance, one that meets each individual’s needs. Margot Rutigliano, founder of Vita Vie Retreat, has been in the fitness industry for over 12 years. “I want people to gain a healthy outlook on life and understand that the goal is not to be perfect. The goal is to be the best that you can be. Each individual has a different goal and my team and I respect that. Life ebbs and flows and most people are just trying to roll with the waves and get through it in a happy and healthy manner,” says Ms. Rutigliano. Margot has trained mothers, daughters, fathers, lawyers, celebrities, school teachers and everyone in between. Because of her extensive experience, she understands life, career, family and what can get in the way of meeting your health and fitness goals. She and her team aim to encourage and motivate people into adopting healthy regimens that will fit into their own lifestyles.

MEANING BEHIND THE NAME: Vita = “Life” in the Italian Language, Vie = “Life” in the French Language

Life is all we have. It is everything. Helping people live a healthier, happier life is what Vita Vie Retreat is all about. The Mandala above the business name in our logo represents life, well being, freedom and relaxation and displays all of the colors of the chakras.

Our Philosophy

BETTER BODY. BETTER HEALTH. BETTER YOU.™

We believe in adopting an overall healthy lifestyle to improve and enhance total well being. We encourage safe weight loss that allows you to establish healthy goals and reach them. Through a blend of dynamic strength, cardiovascular, mind body and flexibility disciplines, Vita Vie Retreat aims to create the perfect physical and mental balance allowing your body to function optimally. Our goal is to help, motivate and guide you to a healthy lifestyle that works with your family, work and social environments.

Real health and vitality comes when we stop comparing and competing with each other, and start listening to the voice within that tells us what we need. We don’t need to have the “best body;” we need to have our own body. ~Bryan Kest

Where We Hold Our Fitness Retreats

Our retreats are held at the Beach. Our home base for our retreats is in Delray Beach, FL at the Marriott Delray Beach. This amazing environment allows our guests to experience an amazing sea side retreat along side the beautiful little town of Delray Beach. By holding retreats at the Marriott Delray Beach, this enables our guests to benefit from the programs of Vita Vie Retreat and the amenities of a full service resort. While we are mainly located at Marriott Delray Beach, we offer two accommodation options at the Marriott Delray Beach and Delray Beach Residence Inn for guests to choose from.

WHY WE LIKE MARRIOTT®: We have partnered with Marriott Branded Hotels for several reasons. First, Marriott Hotels® has adopted a healthy lifestyle understanding. They know that people are looking for healthy options as we have entered an age focused on health and fitness. They have implemented a Fit for You™ menu system that offers at least three healthy options for each meal that are low fat, low in carbohydrates and/or low cholesterol. In addition, Marriott Hotels® embrace the impact they have on the environment and display that in their efforts to reduce waste, reduce the amount of energy used and reduce their carbon footprint. Most hotels are also adopting to chemical free or less harsh chemical cleaners for rooms to reduce the amount of chemical stress you are exposed to.
