Digital Detox Week on a Quiet Croatian Island: Yoga, Sea Swims and No Screens

The week is built around a gentle daily rhythm rather than a timetable. Mornings begin quietly with optional yoga and meditation by the sea, followed by a slow buffet breakfast on the terrace. The middle hours are free: swimming off the island, reading, walking through the pine trees, or joining an optional excursion. Evenings bring a light programme — sometimes a gong bath, sometimes relaxed conversation over a sunset dinner, sometimes just silence.

Meals are mainly plant-based, fresh and buffet-style, with breakfast and dinner included. Unlimited herbal tea is made from herbs picked fresh on the island, and a welcome smoothie greets you on arrival. Lunch is not included and is available as an optional add-on.

What separates this from a typical yoga week is the absence of a fixed schedule and a group leader. The organisers describe it as a package rather than a hosted retreat: the activities exist, but nobody is moving you from session to session. There is no WiFi in the rooms, only in the lobby and reception, which is the point rather than an oversight.

Therapies are available at extra cost — shiatsu, an energy-based therapeutic massage and sound therapy — alongside a boat excursion around the island. A boat trip to a nearby uninhabited island is included, weather permitting.

Accommodation is on the island itself, with three options: a sea-view double room shared with one other guest (matrimonial or twin bed), a single room facing the olive grove and garden, or a campsite pitch with tent rental and equipment included. Tourist tax is covered in the price.
