This retreat is a magical experience for pure relaxation and deep embodiment. I will guide you through mindful practices that utilizes intentional sequencing to drop you back into complete presence and discover freedom within. Our retreat is set in a private beachfront villa within walking distance of the best beach on the island, Pori Beach. Everything will be taken care of for you. All you have to do is show up and make space for inner growth and self-love. It’s time to give yourself the gift you’ve been waiting for. 

Our retreat includes 6 nights and 7 days in a beachfront villa located in Koufonisi, Greece. The villa is a 10 minute walk from Pori Beach and a 30 minute walk from the local village. The whitewashed private villa is tastefully decorated in traditional Cycladic tradition and is immersed in nature’s beauty.

Pori Beach is the best beach on the island due to it's peaceful and unspoiled atmosphere. It's horseshoe shape creates protection from wind. With fine white sand and clear turquoise waters, Pori is ideal for swimming, snorkeling and windsurfing in a pristine natural setting. 

There is also a choice of two beachfront tavernas, which means villa guests can spend uninterrupted hours by the sea. 

The village is only 3km away. Apart from its charming harbor, this traditional Cycladic settlement has a number of shops, tavernas and café-bars, making it ideal for a leisurely stroll, a cool drink or a delicious meal of fresh seafood. 

Koufonisi is a hidden gem within the Cycladic islands. Here, life is slower paced and more authentic. The raw landscape of the island blends harmoniously with the beautiful Aegean Sea. Koufonissia includes three main islands: Koufonisi Upper, Koufonisi Lower and Keros. Koufonisia means “the hollow islands” due to it’s unique rock formations and caves formed by the wind and waves.
