This retreat will take place in Hvar, Croatia, one of the ten most beautiful islands in the world according to Traveler Magazine. Hvar is one of the most popular European destinations where many travelers come to enjoy the Mediterranean landscapes, rich culture, Greek and Venetian heritage, secluded bays of Pakleni islands, UNESCO protected ruins, and the rural beauty of lavender fields, vineyards, and olive groves. Hvar is the sunniest island in Croatia; it has plenty to offer as a perfect retreat location for the body and soul. ACCOMODATION
You will be accommodated in a family house in a quiet part of Hvar town, close to the sea with a beautiful view of the harbor and major town sights. The house is surrounded by a garden where you are welcome to pick fruit or herbs. It is situated close to the sea so as you go down the stairs, you are already in the crystal clear Adriatic waters for a swim or sunbathing. Most of the activities will be held on the terraces but sometimes you will go down to the nearby secluded piers by the sea and enjoy yoga with the music coming from the waves. This homely idea will be the basis for your accommodation, meaning you are most welcome to move around the house, kitchen, and garden and feel free to use any space you find attractive. The family will be there to assist you with all the information you may need while staying at the house in Hvar. You will be situated in single or double occupancy with private or shared bathroom. All the bedrooms are air-conditioned and decorated with attractive details to make you feel as if at home. The bedrooms are situated in separated apartments so each apartment has its own kitchen where you can prepare your own meals and drinks (the ones which are not included in the retreat). FOOD
During this retreat, you will be served with breakfasts and dinners. Lunch time hours are planned for the beach or nature walk so a lunch to go will be provided every day too. The rest of the meals include local fruit, drinks, herbal tea, and coffee, which will be provided at all times. The food is semi-vegetarian, influenced by Mediterranean cuisine, macrobiotics principles, and Ayurveda. We tend to use organic food and supply from the local island farmers whom we trust. You will also have the opportunity to taste some exquisite Mediterranean traditional herbs and spices. A glass of quality local wine will also be available on the evening menu.
