Join us for a 7-day / 6-night yoga retreat on Brac Island in Croatia, May 26 – June 1, 2026.
Yoga is a personal practice. And it becomes even more personal in places that help you go deeper within. Brač is one of those places. I’ve been returning here every summer for 8 years for a reason: the island has an ease that supports practice and real rest. I’m honored to invite you to feel the island’s energy too, practicing beside the water, meeting like-minded beings, and letting the sea truly nourish you.
Come connect to yourself, the island, and others through yoga in an intimate setting (13 people max) in our very own private villa right by the Adriatic Sea.
Mornings will be unhurried, beginning at 8:00 with a two-hour yoga practice on our sea-view deck—meditation, pranayama, and an intelligently sequenced vinyasa/asana flow under the shade of pine trees. After practice, enjoy a nourishing plant-based/vegetarian brunch prepared by our private chef @janauzoeghelu, inspired by her “Seed to Plate” philosophy.
Afternoons are yours to wander, read, (re)connect, and rest. Float in the private pool, stretch out with a book on the deck, swim in the sea, nap in the breeze, or hop on a bike to explore coastal paths and nearby towns. Mid-week we’ll head out for a group island adventure (transport included) so you can experience Brač in all its beauty.
Before Dinner at 4:00 pm, we gather for transformative workshops that go deep into yogic philosophy and embodied practice, such as inversions, chakras, backbends, and journaling that meets you where you are.
Evenings wind down with a sit-down dinner featuring vegan and fresh pescetarian dishes with rich Mediterranean flavours and time to connect. We finish the day with a restful practice to prepare you for deep sleep, such as Yin Yoga, meditation, Yoga Nidra, and storytelling.
We’ll stay in a private luxury villa set right on the sea, with a dedicated deck for direct, private access to the water, a large swimming pool, and a spacious living area, plus plenty of quiet corners to wander, read, enjoy your privacy, and relax. Every bedroom has its own bathroom, so you’ll only ever share a bathroom with the person you share a room with. All rooms can be configured as separate twin beds or a double, and all (except one discounted room) offer sea views from windows or balconies. The house has everything we need to feel cared for, and truly rest.
Meals are prepared by our private chef, @janauzoeghelu , whom I’ve had the pleasure of working with on past retreats. Jana’s cooking has a soulful, grounded quality; she thinks holistically about food and plays with texture, colour, and seasonal produce so every plate feels vibrant and deeply nourishing. Each day begins with a plant-based/vegetarian brunch. Evenings offer pescatarian dinners for those who want them, with fresh, locally sourced seafood and menus that honour Croatian ingredients and coastal freshness. Fully plant-based options are always available. Share your dietary needs in advance and we’ll accommodate them so you feel cared for all week.

No need to bring your own mat
We will spend one afternoon exploring the island together.
We’ll do our best to coordinate transfers from the Sumartin ferry port during arrival/departure. A limited number of cars will be available, so assistance is best-effort and not guaranteed.
So you can wander around the island
For the afternoons that you want to go out at sea
Travel to Croatia and transport between the airport and the ferry are on your own. You’ll be added to a WhatsApp group where you can coordinate rides with fellow guests.
Most guests arrive by a 50-minute ferry ride from Split to Supetar or Makarska to Sumartin. One-way foot-passenger tickets are €4–7. You can buy online or at the port. We’ll share suggested sailings.
You can hire a car, scooter, or take taxis. We’ll connect you with a trusted local for recommendations on reliable taxi drivers and rental options.
Snacks, restaurant meals, speciality drinks, alcohol, and anything not listed under “What’s included.”
Strongly recommended.
I’m a dedicated yoga teacher with a passion for sharing not just the physical aspects of yoga, but also the rich philosophy and traditions that inspire it. In my retreats, we’ll explore the deeper meanings behind the poses and focus on mindfulness and personal growth. My aim is to create a nurturing space where you can deepen your practice, learn something new, and leave feeling refreshed and inspired.
