About Us

Angela Lightsey

Angela Lightsey

Founder of Tybee Wellness Retreats

The mission of Tybee Wellness Retreats is to create a safe, nurturing, and fun atmosphere for those who are “seekers”.

What began as a personal journey sparked a passion to share what I have learned so that others can create a calmer, more fulfilling, and connected life for themselves. My deep desire to help other women take back control of their lives propelled me to curate a spectacular group of professionals who are at their best helping others.

I am a native of Savannah and I have resided on Tybee Island for 16 years. Through my 20 plus years of experience in the hospitality industry, I have created an opportunity for you to rest, restore and relate on a deeper level with yourself and those around you.

I am a Certified Holistic Nutritionist through the American Fitness Professionals & Associates, certified Cacao Ceremony Practitioner, Reiki I certified through Usui System of Natural Healing & certified Spirituality Coach.

It is an honor to host every one of our guests. I cannot wait to have my toes in the sand with you!
