Greek Island Retreat with Yia Mas & Lulu Soni

Amorgos, Greece

Jul 26 - Aug 2, 2024

Group size: 10 - 17

Join us for a dreamy Greek getaway on the Cycladic island of Amorgos. This retreat will combine yoga, meditation, dance, and other wellness practices with a taste of authentic Greek culture. We'll also hike to a famous monastery overlooking the sea, swim, lounge by our pool, explore white-washed villages, and of course - eat delicious fresh Greek food.

Amorgos is a gem in the Aegean - unspoiled by the level of tourism on many nearby Greek islands, it retains old-school Greek hospitality. The nature and views are striking, the water is pristine and oh-so blue, and, in general, it has a very sweet energy that keeps people coming back year after year. This retreat is intended to give you what you need - we hope it leaves you feeling more joyful, inspired, and rejuvenated.

This yoga retreat led by Kristina and Lulu was everything I wanted and more! It was the perfect blend of wellness, culture, beach and social interaction that I was looking for. The leaders are exceptional , infusing each class with a sense of whimsy and magic that made the experience truly unforgettable, and I am still thinking about the breathtaking views from the yoga Shalas. The accommodations were top-notch, providing a comfortable and serene environment. You also have the opportunity to use the spa facilities at the hotel, which added an extra layer of relaxation to the retreat. What drew me to this retreat was the combination of yoga with the feeling of being on vacation, and it was just that. Being able to explore beaches, local towns, local shops and amazing food provided an authentic Greek experience. Our leaders' extensive knowledge of the island led us to some fantastic key spots that truly enriched our stay. I attended the retreat solo, but every participant was kind, open, and friendly, and we spent a wonderful week sharing experiences and making memories. I highly recommend this retreat to anyone looking for a rejuvenating blend of yoga, culture, relaxation and fun. I would definitely join another retreat organized by Kristina and Lulu! Thank you!

Kristina and Lulu were exceptional hosts and yoga instructors. The experience was a great mix of yoga practice, cultural activities, and Greek nightlife. The hotel accommodations were fantastic, Amorgos is a dream island to visit and a great intro to Greece without all the tourists. I am only at a beginner level of yoga and I was able to keep up during practice while also testing my limits with the support of not just the instructors but also the entire group. Everyone made me feel so welcome, it really was a 10/10 trip and I recommend it to everyone.

This Greek Island Retreat with Yia Mas and Lulu Soni was an amazing experience for me. It was my first ever yoga retreat and I would love to do another one, especially with this crew again. It was a pleasure to meet and practice with such wonderful people, eat the most delicious Greek food, and explore the breathtakingly beautiful Greek island of Amorgos. The planning and free time balance for the week was perfect and I always felt comfortable and welcome wherever I went. I would definitely recommend this trip, or any retreat by Yia Mas and Lulu Soni, to everyone interested and I cannot wait for my next one!
