Got questions? We’ve got answers! Here’s everything you need to know about our retreat to help you feel prepared and excited.
The nearby village is within a 10-15 minute walk from our space. Several beaches are also within easy walking distance! With interest and an additional cost, we will charter a boat and take a day trip to Santorini, or another nearby island. There are many more islands to visit, as well as mainland Greece, if you decide to stay longer than the retreat and explore on your own!
Great question. We believe you will be pleasantly pleased with the food quality prepared by our private chef from Athens. You will be provided a delicious wide array of vegetarian and vegan locally sourced cuisine. For those interested, locally caught fish/seafood will also be served several times in the week! All meals are served family-style.
If you have a special dietary concern – food sensitivities, allergies, or preferences – please inform us prior to arrival and we will make every effort to accommodate your needs. If you would like to bring alcoholic beverages, you may, or you can purchase from the nearby village, or have us order and bring in available beverages for you.
While we are hoping to develop the yoga siddhi of teleportation soon, we will take the adventure route! If this is your way too, please plan to fly in and out of Athens, Santorini, or Naxos. From there you can take a ferry to Koufonisia! Best is in fly in the day before the retreat starts. Stay overnight and plan a late morning or early afternoon ferry to Koufonisia. Eric and Rachel (or possibly their charming son, Canyon) will be there to greet you and pick you up, and take you on a few minutes drive to our home for the week!
