Can't stomach the $1,500 price tag? (The ladies are offering a special $75 discount to Real Beauty readers). We quizzed the girls on simple ways to recreate the feeling at your own home. Read up, call the ladies, and get prepared for a good time.

• Chez Vous Buy (or check out you local library and rent) a Pilates or yoga DVD, clear out your living room, and hold a class en masse with a celeb teacher. Sweet likes the goods on BalancedBody.com and Ellie Herman Studios. If Pilates isn't your cup of tea, we love collections from The Bar Method.

• Cheers! Pilates a la Playa serves signature "skinny" cocktails during their retreats, and the girls recommend doing the same at home. Find a snack that sounds delicious while being deceptively healthy. There's nothing wrong with ending your session with a nice glass of wine, but keep your between-class sips a little more professional. Sweet gave us the following recipe for a smoothie that "will have you feeling like you're sipping a cocktail in the islands, but is actually a healthy alternative!"

Half of a frozen banana

A half cup of chopped mango, frozen or fresh

A half cup of chopped pineapple

A cup of coconut milk

A serving of protein powder

Combine all in blender and mix, changing proportions per your taste (more liquid if you like your smoothie runnier, less if you prefer a thicker consistency).

• Head to the gym. Call your gym to find out its rules about guests or investigate day pass options at area fitness clubs. Pick a class that's out of the ordinary for your exercise crew. "Taking a Zumba class will get you feeling like you left the country for an hour," said Sweet.
