The Retreat Location : Oliva, Spain

Oliva sits on one of Europe’s sunniest & most gorgeous coastlines – the Alicante coast of Spain.

Nestled on the coast midway between the cities of Valencia and Alicante, Oliva is surrounded by mountains, the sea, and an abundance of orange groves that fill the air with their beautiful fragrance.

Just a 20 minute walk – or 5 min cycle – from our retreat home and you’re in the heart of Oliva amongst alfresco cafes, local shops & a peaceful old town where narrow streets lead to an ancient church. Oh, and should you fancy a dip in the sea, there’s a beautiful beach a short stroll away with cashmere-soft creamy white sand and crystal blue waters just perfect for morning dips.

Above all, we’re perfectly located for exploring, relaxing and trips to the beach.

The Accommodation : Our Home by the Sea

We’re very excited to host our Yoga & Hiking Retreat holidays at a unique retreat house tucked away down a quiet lane close to the beach and the town of Oliva, 80 mins north of Alicante airport from where we offer a transfer service .

This place is a sensational vision of sustainability, design, beauty & slow luxury. Almost entirely powered by renewables, it is the perfect eco-friendly paradise where you can unplug & recharge, away from the hustle of daily life.

There’s the most gorgeous yoga studio we’ve ever seen, a cosy lounge with log burner and15 beautiful, en-suite bedrooms designed with a luxurious Scandinavian feel featuring natural materials & a palette of soft, soothing colours to help you to land softly & rest at the end of the day.

Outside in the garden there’s a chlorine free pool, comfy sunbeds, hammocks under the trees, paths to the beach and bicycles to hop on when you’re ready to explore nearby.

Comfort, contentment & peace.

Choose a private room just for you or share a twin room with a friend. We also have a couple of triple bed rooms too if you want to share with 2 friends. Most of our guests come on their own so if you’re planning to come solo and are happy to share a twin with another guest, let us know & we’ll pair you with someone of the same sex.

"The positive effects of this retreat stay with you for a long time. Nicole puts everything of herself into her teaching & her kindness and thoughtfulness as a host is beyond compare. I can't recommend this retreat highly enough. " Lucy

the Yoga & Hiking Retreat Experience

We’ve created these 5-night soul nourishing retreats to be the perfect blend of rest and play.

Days begin quietly with teas & fresh fruit whilst you slowly awaken. Then we head to the yoga shala for a morning yoga session beside the floor to ceiling windows. The yoga sessions are suitable for those with a little bit of experience – even if it’s rusty! – right up to the super flexi yogi.

After yoga a buffet style brunch awaits with a plethora of plant-based savoury & sweet dishes packed with colour & taste. Throughout the retreat our food is prepared by Pilar our health chef who goes above & beyond to ensure the food is a highlight. Not only delicious, nutritious & plant based but colourful, interesting & varied using fresh seasonal produce from our local farmers that is bursting in sunshine. We call it ‘sunshine food’.

After brunch there’s time to relax & enjoy this peaceful house or, if you’re feeling ready for some exploring, we have 2 guided hikes, a cookery class with Pilar, a guided ramble at a local nature reserve where migratory birds come to rest plus, we have a masseuse on standby, bikes for you to use or, maybe you just want to laze in a hammock, head to the beach or explore Oliva town. You decide.

Late afternoon we head again to our yoga shala for a relaxing yoga session to unwind from the day before gathering together for a tasty supper full of delicious flavours & colour.

The Hikes & Optional Activities

There’ll be an easy 10k Guided Walking Tour of the coast & town to help you get to know this area a little better
A guided hike in the nearby mountains with picnic lunch. A perfect day for reflection & self discovery. Why not finish with a dip in the sea for the empowering, cortisol-controlling effects of open water bathing?

There’s an optional Cookery Masterclass, a menu of Massages & Holistic Therapies & a guided Bird Spotting session at a local nature reserve where Ospreys have recently been introduced & where migratory birds pause on their journey south (or north?!)
Plus, we have bikes if you fancy a pedal along the country lanes passing through fragrant orange groves.

Just here for savasana? No problem!

Everything is optional. Here there are no ‘to do’s’ only ‘to wants’.

Let's Talk Food!

Local. Healthy. Nourishing.

As you’ll be pretty active with all the yoga & hiking, we want to make sure you have the energy to do everything you’d like to do.

We’ll nourish you with super delicious, colourful & flavoursome plant based dishes using seasonal organic produce (where possible) all grown by our local farmers.

Thanks to a constant supply of underground water from mountains springs, we have a year round supply of gorgeous Mediterranean fruits & vegetables on our doorstep which we make full use of in our meals.

Breakfasts are a help-yourself buffet of wholesome cereals, assorted cereal toppings, fresh juicy fruits, berries, nuts, seeds, dates, figs & apricots, avocado, fresh tomatoes, homemade vegetable pates, fresh smoothies or freshly squeezed juices, dairy free yogurts, assorted breads, coffees & teas.

Suppers are an abundant buffet of tasty dishes that always include a source of plant protein, a wholesome cereal, seasonal vegetables, a salad bar and a delicious healthy dessert – after all, you have been working very hard with all this yoga & hiking so you deserve dessert!

The Yoga

You’ll meet two experienced yoga teachers in the twice daily yoga sessions. Expect alignment based Hatha yoga, meditative slow-flow vinyasa and super relaxing Yin Yoga & Yoga Nidra.

Morning sessions are moderately active to help lift your energy as the sun rises outside whereas evening sessions are more restorative where we’ll hold postures a little longer to allow the body to open up & release deep tension held within the tissues. Pranayama & guided meditations are also a regular part of our yoga practice.

The Yoga sessions are suitable for keen beginners – ie. those with a little experience – right up to the super flexible yogi. Our teaching style is precise but friendly and, as safety is important, you’ll hear plenty of alignment cues to help make the postures comfortable for you.

There’s no pressure to create the ‘perfect’ yoga posture. We’ve all come to yoga with different bodies and abilities and so it’s important you listen to your body and see how the yoga feels rather than how it looks or what others are doing around you.

Airport Transfers

We make it as easy as possible to get to us.

Check in at our retreat home is from 15.00 & check out on final day is by 11am. To help with your travel to us, we will organise a group transfer from & to Alicante airport. The transfer will leave the airport on arrival day between 13.00-14.00 and arrive back at airport on final day for midday. Journey time is 80 minutes & is €38 each person, each way. Please note: there will be one scheduled pick up & one return. See below for flights outside of our transfer times.

Ideally, chose a flight arriving no later than 12.30 to allow you sufficient time to collect your luggage & meet our driver. On the final day your flight should depart after 14.00.

Can’t find a flight to meet our transfers?

We can arrange additional transfers outside of our scheduled one pick up & one return. Where possible, we will always try organise for additional transfers to be shared by as many guests as possible so that the cost can be shared. A taxi for 1-4 persons is in the region of €170.00

In the past, when guests cannot find flights to meet our arrival day transfer, they have flown in the day before the retreat begins, spent the night near Alicante airport & return to the airport the following day to meet our transfer.

What to Pack

We’ll send you our suggested packing list before you join us but you might like to know that all yoga equipment is provided so you won’t need to bring anything – unless you’re super tall and want to bring your extra long yoga mat!
