About The Retreat
You will be staying at a five star luxury estate, architecturally designed with nine luxurious king bedrooms, all thoughtfully refurbished with their own en-suite bathrooms. The estate is located in Catalunya, Northern Spain, just outside of Girona, 90 Minutes from Barcelona. The area is known for its vibrancy, creativity, art, history, and picturesque countryside. The retreat venue itself is a unique wellness retreat, full of history that has been thoughtfully reimagined with modern design and architectural renovation to create an environment of beautiful understated luxury. A place for inner reflection, connection and re-balancing. There is a 16-metre salt-based pool with outdoor lounges, a sauna, and a Japanese Ofuro hot tub to enjoy between yoga classes. And you might even indulge yourself in an onsite spa treatment with the local experts. The yoga studio embraces heritage and neutral colours. The perfect space to dive deep into the practice. With hardwood floors and a modern feel, you will be immersed not just in the practice of yoga but also the natural surroundings. You will feel at ease in this natural setting, perfectly curated for you to feel at one with the surroundings and yourself. Mornings will begin with breathwork into a vinyasa practice or yoga workshop and evenings we will wind down with yin or restorative yoga. The organic kitchen garden is amongst 40 acres of walnut trees & provides the key ingredients for our farm-to-table approach that centres around homegrown organic food. All the ingredients will be fresh, natural and local products, free of gluten, refined sugars and lactose. While the dishes will be primarily plant-based, eggs (from hens onsite!) and cheese will be also be on the menu. We can cater for all dietaries, just let us know when booking. This retreat will be a cultural immersion in everything the area has to offer. Included in the retreat is a day trip to the beaches of Costa Brava. This untamed and unspoilt coastline is famous for its turquoise blue waters and romantic beaches. For exploring on your own, within just 20 minutes you can be in the historic town of Girona, famous for its medieval walls & winding cobblestone streets. The magical location offers seclusion and wanderlust, providing a true sanctuary in which to escape the pressures of busy life and explore the sights and sounds of this beautiful country.

This was my first yoga retreat. I don’t practice yoga on a regular basis and I was shocked at how i adapted to the direction which was pivitol for a non-yoga person to not only enjoy it but to realize that I need this in my life. I felt amazing after the sessions and want to spend more time with these amazing ladies. They are so loving and caring and patient. I WILL BE BACK. I am thinking Tuscany!

Kind, committed, inclusive and humble! The perfect combination for a yoga experience no matter your level. Janet and Amy have such a calming and supportive energy. I wished there was a Nectar Island I could live on!

Amy and Janet are excellent hosts - they took care of us all so well. The retreat was well organised with a great balance of energising yoga in the morning and relaxing yin in the evening. The venue was mind-blowing. Such a relaxing, beautiful place. The food was all home cooked, fresh, healthy and delicious. It was a fantastic holiday. Thank you Amy and Janet!
