Our 5 - Star Accommodations

Experience the epitome of Luxury at our 5-star hotel on Amorgos Island, celebrated as a haven for wellness seekers and yoga enthusiasts. Recognized as one of the top five yoga hotels in Greece, it offers an unparalleled experience of relaxation and rejuvenation.


The main restaurant, Ambrosia Gallery, serves a wide array of gourmet dishes, including vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options, all crafted from organic vegetables grown in our gardens.

Nestled between the main sandy beach of Aegiali and Levroso Beach, the hotel is just a 7-10 minute walk from the pristine waters of Aegiali Bay.


In addition to the amazing restaurant on property, there is also a full spa, an indoor pool, an outdoor pool and many different indoor and outdoor spaces to practice yoga.


According to mythology, Amorgos is the island where Ulysses, on his journey back to Ithaca, was drawn by the enchanting Goddess Circe and stayed for many years. Today, the island’s magnetic allure continues to captivate wellness and yoga enthusiasts, drawn by its revitalizing energy and abundant therapeutic herbs, making Amorgos an ideal destination for spiritual and physical rejuvenation.

The Food

Opened in 1993, Ambrosia Gallery Restaurant aims to encourage guests to discover the traditional Amorgian cuisine and also enjoy international dishes. For the last three years, Ambrosia Restaurant is certified by “AEGEAN CUISINE”, an initiative that recognizes firms demonstrating the rich culinary tradition of the Aegean, offering local products at a quality level. 


The Chef specializes in Greek traditional food and uses recipes of the owners’ grand-parents. He prepares local dishes that are available both to meat eaters and vegetarians.


The Restaurant offers a comfortable interior room decorated with paintings from well known artists, such as Michel Constant, and a large outside terrace with an outstanding view over the bay of Aegiali and the surrounding villages. 

The Spa & Relaxation

 A soothing experience of stillness and harmony amid the mind blowing scenery of the Aegean.


Lalon Idor Spa is well known for its healing and transformative energy, dramatically beautiful landscapes, as well as its hypnotic blue waters.


The name of their Spa is taken from the story of the ancient water oracle dedicated to god Apollo, where visitors came seeking clarity and answers in prophetic water readings. Find purity and peace of mind in a nurturing and peaceful atmosphere, allow the nurturing hands of our highly qualified and inspired therapists bring you to a state of stillness and rest, and let the voice of the sea soothe your mind away from your daily responsibilities or musts.


As a part of your retreat package,  enjoy a 60-minute massage, access to all the spa amenities, as well as a 10% discount on all additional face & body treatments

The Activities

Experience the Best of Greece with Our Curated Activities

Each activity in this retreat has been carefully selected to showcase the incredible sights and flavors of Greece.


Cooking Class
Learn traditional Amorgian recipes in a fun and relaxed atmosphere. Guided by our resident chef, you'll be introduced to the most authentic Greek dishes and taught how to make them step by step. The best part? Enjoying all of your culinary creations!


Private Boat Tour
Embark on a private boat tour around the island, complete with a delicious lunch and plenty of time to swim and soak up the sun. This exclusive experience is the perfect way to explore the stunning coastline of Amorgos.

The Journey

If you've joined us on a retreat before, you know our locations are truly special, tucked away from the usual tourist paths. This seclusion is part of their charm.


If you are new to our community, our locations may require a bit of a journey, but it's one that's absolutely worth it.


The remote location of Amorgos acts as a natural filter, keeping crowds small and the island unspoiled. Because there is only one ferry from Santorini to Amorgos each day, it is crucial to be early for the ferry. If the ferry is missed, you will miss the start of our retreat and will need to repurchase ferry tickets for another day.


On the day our retreat begins, you will meet at the Ferry Port in Santorini (approximately 20 minutes from the airport) at the designated time to take the ferry to Amorgos (approximately 1.5 hours).


Once you arrive in Amorgos, you will be greeted by your transfer to the hotel (approximately 30-minute drive).


We highly recommend spending the night before and after the retreat in Greece locally so you are not worried about missed flights, connections, etc.

Travel Documents

US Citizens traveling to Greece need a current passport. Check the expiration date to make sure that it does not expire within 6 months of your trip. Visas are not required.


Concerns about the European Economy have had very little effect on tourism in Greece, especially outside the capital. ATMs may limit the amount of money you may withdraw, so it is advisable to manage your cash accordingly. 


Most small businesses prefer cash transactions, but larger hotels and transport companies usually accept Master Card and Visa.

Had an amazing time in Belize! The jungle resort was amazing! Allie is a wonderful yoga instructor and leader. Everyone at the resort and on the retreat were so warm and welcoming.

A very memorable experience. Pilates, the Mayan ruins, cave tubing, zip lining, and Caye Caulker. The most unique experience and perfect retreat. I will continue to enjoy yoga beyond the studio retreats, they’re the best!

This was a fantastic trip! It was just the right amount of “participation” (no pressure), Nicole is the best, and I can’t imagine being with a greater group of fun and amazing ladies! Shayna thought of everything, the packing list was very helpful for someone packing last minute, and the gift bags were used by everyone. The jungle resort was great with good food and very friendly and accommodating people.

This was one of the best trips of my entire life and I travel A LOT! I booked back in September I had a lot going on and wasn't sure it was the right thing to do at the time, but I can say I am SO GRATEFUL I did. Everything was organized perfectly! The resort was amazing, the food, the service and the staff. The pilates instructor was amazing the adventures were wonderful! The group of women that I spent the week with changed my life. I was able to celebrate my birthday while I was there and the staff went above and beyond and decorated and even made the best cake ever for me to celebrate! The women made me feel so special as if I was with my best friends I had for life! I am so so so grateful I booked when I did and it came to fruition the way it did! Shayna did an exceptional job with the organization of this retreat! Cannot wait for the next one!!!

This trip was unlike any I'd ever taken. A mix of adventure, total serenity, and impeccable service. From the food, to the tour guides, to the resort staff - every bit was perfect. I left feeling like I had a new home with both my fellow adventure buddies as well as every one of the resort staff. Special thanks to Melanie, Gloria, Sandy, Maricela, Gary, and our tour guides Delwyn and Emilcar.

I highly recommend her Yoga retreats!
