Toronto Weight Loss Retreat and Wellness Resort

Getting to our Toronto Weight Loss Retreat is simple, whether you're travelling from within Ontario or flying in from elsewhere.

By Car
Our retreat is located approximately 1 hour from downtown Toronto, making it an easy drive while still offering a peaceful escape from the city. The venue has ample free on-site parking, so you can arrive and leave at your convenience without worrying about parking availability.

By Air
The nearest airport is Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ), which is around 45–60 minutes by car, depending on traffic. Pearson offers direct flights from destinations across Canada, the United States and internationally, making it the most convenient airport for guests travelling from further afield.

To make your journey as stress-free as possible, we offer a complimentary airport transfer service for all guests arriving at Toronto Pearson International Airport.

If you have any questions about travelling to the retreat, our team is always happy to help you plan your journey.

Is there a residential weight loss retreat near Toronto?

Yes. Our Toronto Weight Loss Retreat is located around one hour from downtown Toronto in a peaceful countryside setting. You'll enjoy luxury accommodation, healthy chef-prepared meals, daily fitness sessions and expert coaching while staying close enough for an easy journey from the city.

How much weight can I realistically lose at the Toronto Weight Loss Retreat?

Everyone loses weight at a different rate depending on their starting point, commitment and length of stay. Our focus isn't just helping you lose weight during your retreat but teaching you the habits that help you continue losing weight after you return home. As part of the programme we include a detailed aftercare program to follow for when you arrive home.

I'm embarrassed about my weight. Will I fit in?

Absolutely. Many guests tell us they were nervous before arriving because they hadn't exercised for years or felt self-conscious about their weight. Our guests come from many different backgrounds and fitness levels, and you'll be supported by the FitFarms health team during and after your residential stay.

Do many people come to the retreat on their own?

Yes. Most guests attend on their own. We will also have the odd couple but there always more solo travellers than couples. Many people are surprised at how quickly they make friends because everyone is there for the same reason, to improve their health and lose weight in a supportive environment.

Is your Toronto Weight Loss Retreat like a military boot camp?

No. FitFarms is a holistic weight loss retreat, not a military-style fitness camp. We encourage and support you to become more active at a pace that's right for you while helping you develop healthier habits you can maintain long after your stay.

How far is the retreat from Toronto Pearson Airport?

Toronto Pearson International Airport is approximately 45 to 60 minutes away by car. We also provide complimentary airport transfers, making travelling to the retreat simple whether you're flying from elsewhere in Canada, the United States or internationally.

What do you eat at the Toronto Weight Loss Retreat?

You'll enjoy freshly prepared, nutritious meals designed to support healthy weight loss without feeling deprived. We do not introduce fad diets where food types are eliminated, we give you the right amount of calories for the exercise that you will be doing during your stay. Meals are balanced, satisfying and created to show you that healthy eating can still be enjoyable.

Do I need to exercise all day?

No. Your day includes a mixture of fitness sessions, walks, educational workshops, relaxation and free time. The programme is designed to be achievable, enjoyable and sustainable rather than exhausting.

Can I still attend if I'm over 50 or haven't exercised in years?

Yes. Many of our guests are in their 50s, 60s, 70s and even 80's. Activities are adapted to suit different fitness levels, allowing everyone to progress safely and confidently.

Why choose a weight loss retreat instead of trying another diet at home?

Many people find it difficult to change their habits while surrounded by everyday temptations and responsibilities. Spending time at a residential weight loss retreat allows you to focus entirely on your health, build new routines and gain expert support before returning home.

Is the Toronto Weight Loss Retreat open all year round?

Our Toronto retreat is scheduled to open in April 2027, with programmes running throughout the season. If you'd like to be one of our first guests, we recommend booking early as places are limited.
