High intensity classes
Scientifically proven to get you fitter, and faster, these effective interval training sessions will maximise your workout in a short time, while the early morning runs will energize you for the rest of the day.
HIIT - High-Intensity Interval Training is a technique used to create a 100% all-out effort workout through quick, intense bursts of exercise followed by short recovery periods.
This 30-minute HIIT workout mixes body strength and cardio to give maximum results - you'll work hard and feel great!
Run club - This is a social run for mixed abilities, we generally aim for around 5km but shorter and longer options are also on the timetable. The terrain can be a road or track or sometimes a mixture of both. Don't worry, it's not too off-road that trail trainers are needed.
Inclusive
Family fitness sessions
We believe in fitness for everyone. That's why we offer fun classes throughout the week suitable for all, whether you want to dance, laugh, or have fun with the family.
Zumba - Strictly come Zumba! A brilliant fitness dance workout that's easy to follow and fun with catchy tunes to keep you smiling. Families are encouraged to take part on family mornings.
Circuits - Kids of all ages will enjoy the fun, interactive stations which our instructors will adapt especially for the family sessions.
Kids' club fitness - Our clubs all have their own sessions with the fitness instructors - from animal yoga and dance games for the under fives to Zumba and circuits for 6 to 11 year olds plus aqua and boxfit for the teens.

Hyrox
Inspired by the world of hybrid fitness, our HYROX-style sessions mix running and cardio bursts with functional movement – get ready for squats, lunges, jumps, pushes and pulls. It’s full‑body, high-energy and hugely satisfying, but always coached, scalable and fun. No racing, no pressure – just great workouts and great vibes.
A great family venue where everyone can find activities to suit them. A wonderful team at Neilson in resort. Hotel food is fantastic. Lovely grounds at the hotel. Not a high wind resort so great...
A great family venue where everyone can find activities to suit them. A wonderful team at Neilson in resort. Hotel food is fantastic. Lovely grounds at the hotel. Not a high wind resort so great for beginner windsurfers and dinghy sailors. Kids loved HotShots! Advice to Neilson is to create a Hotshots for 14 years + so they can continue their water sports tuition with their friends as teens don’t generally want to hang out in the adult classes.
Great location, fabulous staff, delicious food, great tuition and equipment. Pools a bit small but no need to use them when there's so much going on at the beach.
Special mentions to: the beach crew...

Special mentions to: the beach crew - particularly Emma who is an outstanding teacher and really impressive young person; lovely Irene on reception who fixed my broken sandals; Vassillis in the restaurant who was so attentive, positive and kind - incredible energy in the heat; Rosie and the fitness team for lovely classes, and Daisy the Neilson manager for running a fantastic team (and for a brilliant yoga class).
Fabulous staff, great food, amazing facilities for a variety of watersports as well as land-based fitness activities such as tennis and cycling. Incredible location as well.
