About your trip

Set against the sun-drenched coastline of Marbella, this retreat at The Viluz Resort in Marbella, Spain is an invitation to step out of the noise of daily life and into something slower, softer, and more intentional. Mornings begin with energizing, breath-led movement designed to awaken the body and clear the mind, while afternoons unfold at your own pace—whether that means lounging by the pool, exploring the charm of southern Spain, or simply resting deeply. As the day winds down, we’ll gather again for grounding practices that help you reconnect inward and carry a sense of calm into the evening.


This experience is about more than yoga—it’s about how you feel when you return home. Nourishing meals, meaningful connection, and thoughtfully curated practices create space for both expansion and ease. Whether you’re coming to reset, to reconnect, or simply to enjoy a beautiful week in an inspiring setting, this retreat offers the perfect balance of structure and freedom, movement and stillness, community and solitude.

What to Expect

As you arrive, you’ll step into a secluded sanctuary designed for deep rest, renewal, and quiet luxury. Set within four hectares of Mediterranean gardens and framed by sweeping views of both the mountains and sea, the experience invites you to slow down from the moment you arrive.   Each day unfolds with a thoughtful rhythm—energizing morning practices on an open-air yoga deck overlooking the landscape, followed by spacious afternoons to unwind, explore, or simply be.  


Between sessions, you’ll have full access to Viluz’s exceptional wellness amenities, including a serene spa with sauna and hammam, a chlorine-free pool, ice bath, and a variety of meditative spaces woven throughout the property—from a sacred meditation tree to a barefoot chakra labyrinth.   Whether you choose to indulge in a massage, rest in the gardens, or wander nearby beaches and nature trails just minutes away, every element is designed to support balance and restoration.  


Evenings invite a softer pace—grounding practices, nourishing meals with our own private chef, and meaningful connection in a setting that feels both intimate and expansive. With its blend of refined design, natural beauty, and holistic wellness, this is more than a retreat—it’s an immersive experience in reconnecting with yourself, supported by an atmosphere of calm, care, and understated luxury.
