Ready to stop holding your breath and just… breathe? This Bloom & Reset Yoga Retreat on Spetses is your invitation to take a break from the relentless grind and perfectionism and finally let yourself exhale. This isn’t a place to “do it all”—it’s a retreat to do less, with a group of women who also know what it’s like to carry too much. Join us for four days in a small circle of women on the beautiful island of Spetses, staying in a contemporary boutique hotel that’s equal parts stylish and serene. With a blend of mindful movement, self-compassion workshops, plenty of downtime, and a little island adventure, this retreat is all about leaving your worries at the door and coming home to yourself.
Yayaki Spetses is the perfect escape for those seeking a little luxury and a lot of relaxation. Located just steps from the beach and a short stroll to local boutiques and seaside cafes, it combines island charm with modern comfort.
The spacious Deluxe and Balcony Deluxe rooms, offering views of the pool, garden, or sea, are designed with your comfort in mind—ideal for solo travelers wanting their own private oasis.
Whether you're lounging by the pool, practicing yoga, or sipping cocktails at sunset, Yayaki offers the ultimate balance of tranquility and island vibes. It’s the perfect backdrop for our retreat—intimate, relaxed, and just the right amount of luxury.
The Deluxe Rooms on the first floor offer beautiful views of the pool and bougainvillea. Thoughtfully designed for comfort, they feature an Italian walk-in shower, open wardrobes, a desk, a double bed, and a relaxing seating area.
Each room is uniquely styled, blending the serene charm of Spetses with contemporary art to create an authentic atmosphere.
The Deluxe Balcony Rooms on the second floor feature traditional wooden balconies with stunning views of the pool and bougainvillea. They include an Italian walk-in shower, a desk, a double bed, and a relaxing seating area.
Designed with terracotta tones and natural fabrics, they capture the timeless charm and summer energy of Spetses.
Step into an intimate retreat crafted for women who do it all but long to feel at ease. Breathe, recharge, and return to the best version of you.
At Yayaki Spetses, the food is all about quality. Each dish is crafted from premium, locally sourced ingredients to showcase the best of Greek cuisine.
Mornings begin with a nourishing breakfast filled with fresh fruits, creamy yogurt, and homemade treats. While we’re not going fully vegetarian, the menu offers plenty of vibrant, plant-based options rooted in one of the world’s healthiest diets.
And for our night out? You’re free to indulge in whatever you fancy—because every craving deserves a little love!
Set on the stunning island of Spetses, Yayaki combines minimalist luxury with island charm. With deluxe solo rooms, open spaces, and a pool just steps from the beach, it’s designed for deep relaxation and reconnection.
Each morning begins with sunrise meditation and slow-flow yoga to set a peaceful tone, followed by self-compassion workshops that help release perfectionism and bring more kindness into your everyday life.
You’ll also experience my Signature Release Class—a mix of movement, breath, and sound for a refreshing sense of lightness. In the evenings, unwind with gentle restorative yoga to ease you into a restful night. Every activity is optional, letting you move at your own pace.
Outside sessions, explore island life—shop local treasures, enjoy a sunset cocktail, or lounge by the pool. For adventure seekers, we’ll arrange optional extras like a bike tour, a kaiki boat ride, or a horse carriage tour, depending on the vibe.
And if pampering is calling, a relaxing massage is always an option. This retreat is all about recharging in a way that feels perfect for you.
If you’re a bit of a perfectionist, a juggler of responsibilities, and generally fantastic at getting everything done but feeling frazzled, this retreat is designed especially for you.
It’s time to step off the treadmill, tune into yourself, and let go of all that pressure (we promise, it won’t miss you). In this small, intimate setting with just 8 women, you’ll enjoy solo-occupancy deluxe rooms, giving you the perfect mix of personal space and supportive community.
Join us for three nights of island calm, mindful practice, and meaningful connection in the beautiful surrounds of Spetses.
Yayaki Spetses is nestled on the peaceful and picturesque island of Spetses, known for its car-free streets and relaxed atmosphere. The exact address will be shared once your booking is confirmed.
