ITHACA RETREAT 2026

Date and location

The Venue

This specially selected retreat venue really is one of a kind. Ithaca is a small island beside Kefalonia. What it lacks in size it makes up for in history and charming culture. It boasts an incredible natural beauty with lush greenery and offers exotic beaches with emerald green waters. The island can only be accessed by ferry or private boat transfer and this only adds to the exclusive feel of this retreat.

Each of the bedrooms are luxurious and en-suite, but that’s where their similarities end. All exude their own identity and individuality which is one of the reasons I fell in love and felt drawn to invite you to experience this retreat.

We’ll include an option to hike to see the island;it boasts so much history and to sense the mythical mysteries amongst the animated panoramic scenery and secretive coves can only enhance our connection to the island as we inhabit the space for 7 nights. Two stunning beaches are just a short walk away too so you’ll have plenty of time to explore or soak up the sun with a good book by the beautiful pool or on the terrace overlooking the sea and the eastern coastline of neighbouring Kefalonia. The views really are out of this world!

Our Yoga classes will be held in the outdoor Yoga Shala and indoor Yoga Studio. All yoga mats and props are provided.
