18-Day Mediterranean Yoga & Wellness Co-Living Retreat in Spain

The retreat takes place in a private villa in Benissa, a historic town in the province of Alicante, about 275 meters above sea level. The villa is set in the Costa Blanca countryside, with views and proximity to the Mediterranean Sea, and is about 4 kilometers from the coast, linking the towns of Moraira and Calp. It's a peaceful, sun-drenched location that feels far from city chaos, yet is accessible from Alicante Airport. The experience is designed to be unplugged and slow, with no alcohol served—a rule that supports the detox and reset theme of the month. The month is organized into themed weeks, each with a different focus. There's the Bloom Weekend (22–25 Oct), a four-day yoga and detox retreat that's ideal for a short reset, featuring clean eating and stillness. Then there's the Detox Week (26 Oct–1 Nov), a full seven days to properly clean the slate, with movement, nourishment, and rest. Bloom Week (2–8 Nov) follows, with a slower, more restorative rhythm, and finally, the Yoga Marathon (8–10 Nov), a two-day intensive where you can practice as much as you want, including Mysore-style practice, dynamic Rocket Yoga, and workshops on arm balances and pranayama. Each week is open to all levels, and you can join for any part of it. The daily schedule is flexible but typically includes a morning activation (like Osho dynamic or power yoga), an afternoon session (like animal flow or VinYin), and an evening practice (like sound healing or yoga nidra). On weekends, guest teachers lead deeper immersions. The program also includes optional activities like yoga philosophy discussions, guided journaling, and asana labs on alternating days. The retreat is hosted by Vanessa, a traveling yoga teacher with over 15 years of experience and 700 hours of certification, and supported by Rafael, a personal trainer, yoga teacher, and Animal Flow instructor who also focuses on nutrition. They bring a mix of expertise in yoga, mobility, and flexibility, and are dedicated to helping you find a healthier rhythm in your life.
