Join me June 17 -24, 2023 on the beautiful Greek island of Crete. I’m thrilled to be hosting this retreat at my friend’s sanctuary, Rose of Crete. I have fallen in love with this location; I know you will too! The history, the beauty and the love of this family make this property so unique. The compound is nestled in the beautiful countryside, surrounded by olive groves with breathtaking views of the Mediterranean below and the mountains above. Our group will have exclusive access to the entire estate during the stay. As you enter the property, you will be greeted by the olive trees which are carefully tended to in order to produce the finest extra virgin olive oil. And yes, you will get to enjoy that olive oil! All of our meals on-property will be inspired by both what is growing on the grounds and the local summer produce. This is BEYOND farm to table.
Each two-story private suite has a dramatic view of the surrounding countryside. All the suites are comfortably furnished with a cozy sitting room incorporating a well-furnished kitchenette and a full bathroom with walk-in shower on the main level. Upstairs you’ll find a large bedroom (can sleep two adults); reached up a narrow spiral staircase. You’ll enjoy a bountiful welcome basket filled with culinary delights from the property including olive oil, fresh eggs and more!
Weather permitting, our vigorous morning yoga practice will take place pool side. The indoor shala/lounge will serve as our alternate yoga studio. We will meditate in the olive groves and beneath the almond trees. Our daily restorative afternoon practice will take place again by the pool or down on the beach. All levels welcome.
