Where:The retreat takes place in the beautiful Catalan countryside, surrounded by nature, fig farms and rolling hills.

Light snack will be served around 3pm, followed by plenty of time to unwind before our first yoga practice together.

A Typical Retreat Day

No two retreats are ever exactly the same, but the rhythm of the days usually flows something like this...

Slow Morning

Most people naturally wake around 7:30/8am.

There is never any rush.

Guests can enjoy a cup of tea / coffee, wander through the gardens, watch the sunrise over the countryside or simply enjoy a few quiet moments before practice.

Enjoy a light breakfast, fresh fruits & nuts.

At 8.30am/9am we gather in the yoga shala.

Our morning practice is our more energising session of the day.

Don't let the two-hour class sound intimidating! 😅 It genuinely flies by.

A typical morning includes:

• Guided meditation

• Breathwork

• A flowing 90-minute Vinyasa practice

Everything is taught at an open level.

Complete beginners are absolutely welcome, while experienced yogis will still feel challenged. Once I know the group, I always tailor the practices so everyone feels supported.

Brunch Feast

Around 11:00am we head to brunch..

This is honestly one of everyone's favourite parts of retreat.

Think beautiful fresh fruit, homemade breads, incredible vegetarian dishes, fresh juices, coffee and delicious eggs every morning.

Meals are colourful, nourishing and always prepared with so much love.

Relax & Explore

After brunch there's nowhere you need to be.

This is your time. Some guests curl up with a book.

Around midday we often head out for a gentle countryside walk through the surrounding fig farms and beautiful Catalan landscape.

Others swim. Some book a treatment.

Some simply lie in the sunshine doing absolutely nothing.

A light lunch is usually served around 3:00pm.

The Venue

This place is honestly one of my favourite venues I've ever discovered.

It feels peaceful from the moment you arrive.

Facilities include:

• Large saltwater swimming pool

• Outdoor hot tub

• Beautiful group sauna

• Indoor and outdoor relaxation spaces

• Quiet reading corners

• Beautiful gardens

• Luxurious communal spaces

Even during warm weather, everyone somehow ends up spending time in the sauna and hot tub. It has become one of those unexpected little retreat rituals.

Treatments

There are beautiful treatment rooms onsite with an exceptional team of therapists.

Guests can book:

• Massage

• Acupuncture

• Holistic therapies

I have to mention one particular acupuncturist...

She's originally from California and honestly gives one of the best treatments I've ever experienced. I've booked in with her every year for the past three years (sometimes twice!) and I'm already looking forward to seeing her again.

Treatments are optional and booked directly with the venue.

Evening Rituals

Around 5:30pm we gather again for our evening practice.

This is always my favourite part of retreat.

Our evening sessions are slower, softer and deeply restorative.

Expect long-held Yin Yoga, gentle movement, breathwork and moments of complete stillness.

Sometimes I invite everyone to enjoy an hour of quiet beforehand.

It's completely optional, but creating a little silence before practice allows everyone to settle into the retreat on a much deeper level.

Afterwards we often wander straight to the sauna or hot tub for what I lovingly call...

The Sauna Chats. 

Sometimes they're hilarious.

Sometimes they're surprisingly deep.

Sometimes they're all about life, birthdays, dreams and everything in between.

Those conversations often become some of the memories people treasure most.

Dinner is served around 8:00pm, followed by tea, laughter, conversations and wonderfully wholesome evenings together.

Optional Yoga Nidra.. After dinner I love bring guests to the yurt to put them in a sleep trans to sleep.. We can do this every evening or to your liking.l

A Special Birthday Celebration

As this retreat is celebrating Orla's 50th birthday, I'd love to make it even more special.

There's a wonderful local woman who offers the most beautiful sound bath experiences, and I would love to arrange a private session for your group one evening.

A Little Note About The Venue

One thing I absolutely love is that the retreat is entirely alcohol-free.

The owners have intentionally created a space centred around rest, wellness, meaningful connection and slowing down.

It creates such a beautiful atmosphere that everyone comments on.

The owners themselves are honestly part of the magic.

She is originally from Puerto Rico, he is Dutch, and together they've created one of the warmest, most welcoming retreat spaces I've ever experienced.

Every year I leave feeling like I've been visiting old friends.

Bedrooms

The retreat accommodates up to 18 guests across 9 luxurious bedrooms.

Every room is completely unique.

They can be arranged as either twin or double rooms depending on your group.

Each has beautiful interiors, luxurious bathrooms, lovely linens and so much character.

A Little Note From Me 🤍

Retreats are one of my greatest passions.

I feel incredibly lucky that this is my work, and I can't wait to create another unforgettable retreat with you all.

I already know it's going to be such a special celebration.

Love,

Maura 🤍
