7 Day Wellness & Yoga Escape in Corfu, Greece

INEA Yoga’s signature retreat runs most weeks from late April through October, and it’s built around a rhythm that feels both spacious and structured. Each day begins with a 30-minute guided meditation timed to the sunrise, followed by a 75-to-90-minute vinyasa or hatha flow that mobilises the joints, strengthens the muscles, and opens the hips and hamstrings. Afternoons are free for the beach, a hike, or a massage with Jenny, the in-house therapist. Evenings bring a 60-minute yin yoga class designed to calm the nervous system, and on some nights there’s mantra chanting or a sound bath with Tibetan singing bowls.

What sets this retreat apart is the depth of the teaching combined with a genuinely relaxed atmosphere. The teachers rotate weekly—Sally and Raphael, Mary and Bonnie, Laura and Hanna—but they’re all senior practitioners with years of experience. Bonnie, who teaches several weeks, is a yoga therapist with a background in Eastern medicine and functional medicine; Mary is an E-RYT 500 who studied under Pandit Rajmani Tigunait. You’re not getting a fresh-faced 200-hour grad leading sun salutations; you’re getting people who can actually help you understand why your shoulders won’t release or why your mind keeps racing during savasana.

The workshops are a highlight for many guests. These aren’t optional extras—they’re woven into the week and free of charge. Topics include Yoga Philosophy, Pranayama, Chakras and Nadis, Asana Clinic, and Sankalpa (finding your heart’s desire). There’s also a DIY Mala workshop where you can string your own prayer beads (small extra charge). The setting helps too: the studio sits on a hiking trail, five minutes from the beach at Lakkiess, with Issos Beach and its nature reserve a 20-minute walk away. Corfu is the greenest of the Greek islands, and you’ll feel it in the pine and olive scents that follow you down the dirt paths.
