Croatia · 5 days · From EUR 2250 (indicative)
What truly sets this retreat apart is the sense of community and personal attention. Annika is passionate about creating an inclusive environment where everyone feels seen and heard, and with small group sizes of 6 to 20 participants, you'll form genuine connections and leave with new friends. The retreat is suitable for all levels, so whether you're a complete beginner or an advanced practitioner, you'll feel supported and challenged in equal measure. Many guests come on their own, and you'll find the group bonds quickly, so this is a welcoming choice if you're travelling solo. Prepare to leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more connected to your inner self.
At the heart of your practice is the Bikram sequence, a set series of 26 postures and two breathing exercises. Traditionally it is practised in a room heated to 40°C, but here you'll practise the same sequence at a more moderate temperature of around 25 to 30°C, making it accessible to more people while still offering a restorative and strengthening practice. Annika provides individual adjustments and guidance, everything is optional, and you're free to take breaks and go at your own pace. Alongside this, you'll enjoy daily pranayama and meditation, plus afternoon sessions that move between Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, a posture clinic, guided relaxation and specialised workshops.
You'll stay at VSG Resort in Klimno, a small, peaceful village on the island of Krk, Croatia. You're just a short walk from the beach and the town centre, giving you a lovely balance of seclusion and convenience. The accommodation is clean, comfortable and thoughtfully maintained, and the resort offers a pool, sauna, spa, garden, terrace, restaurant and a dedicated yoga shala, with air conditioning, heating and wheelchair access.
Your days have a gentle rhythm. You might begin with an optional quiet morning walk at 07:00, followed by breathing exercises and meditation, then an active yoga class. A healthy, filling brunch follows at 10:00, after which your time is your own: explore the beach or town, relax by the pool, unwind in the sauna, join an optional excursion to local sites, or book a spa treatment. In the late afternoon you'll return for a workshop or slower practice, before dinner together at 19:00 and an evening to rest or enjoy the resort. Your first evening opens with a welcome circle, an active class to shake off travel fatigue, a welcome dinner and connection games, and your final full day ends with a farewell dinner.
Food is an integral part of the experience here, and mindful eating is encouraged. Expect colourful salads, hearty soups, freshly baked bread and Mediterranean specialities, with vegetarian and vegan options available. Your stay includes four nights' accommodation, daily brunch and dinner, a welcome drink, daily yoga, meditation and pranayama classes, specialised workshops, free excursions to sites of interest, pre and post-retreat support from the team, luggage storage, parking, WiFi, and water, tea and coffee throughout the day. You can choose a shared double room at 1250 EUR or a private double room at 2250 EUR.
