The staff were all phenomenal. The property was beautiful and maintained. The classes were all great in their own ways. Everything is very convenient. I’m all for health and wellness food but I was burning so many calories. I had to uber some sustenance a few times. But there’s plenty nearby. The Seed cafe got me through a lot. No Diet Coke on the property for the record. Otherwise everything bypassed any expectations.

The property is beautiful. The classes are excellent the way the instructors explain the purpose of the class and you get take this home with you. I had a deep inner connection. The staff went way beyond my expectations they made sure you had the best experience. I recommended to all my friends. Carefree is beautiful if you do leave the resort. Restaurants are great and the locals are very friendly.

Overall Civana is lovely but it falls short in a few areas. Front desk needs more staff. They are the point of contact for many things and often only one person manned the front leading to long waits. Food is a bit hit or miss. My initial room smelled like a fart but they were able to move me. Every issue I brought up was addressed so kudos for that.
