Home › Retreats › Wellness & Adventure Yoga Escape by the Beach in Corfu, Greece
Greece · 8 days · From USD 695
The retreat is run by Corfu Yoga Holidays, a small, family-oriented team that keeps things personal. You're welcomed on arrival day with dinner and a chance to meet your instructors. The daily rhythm is simple: an 8:30 AM pranayama and yoga session, brunch at 10 AM, a free afternoon, then another session from around 5:30–6 PM, followed by dinner. Between sessions, you can take part in free group activities like guided hikes and kayaking (when the sea is calm), or explore on your own.
Your instructors, Paola and Emily, both bring years of teaching experience. Paola has been practising yoga for over a decade and blends Hatha with dynamic flow, powerful standing poses, and breathing techniques. Emily has trained in Hatha, Vinyasa, and Ashtanga and loves mixing yoga with Pilates and alignment-based vinyasa. Evening sessions often feature active meditations or Yin Yoga.
The accommodation is simple and budget-focused. Rooms are sea-view with private bathrooms and air conditioning, but this isn't a spa hotel—you won't get slippers or bathrobes. What you do get is an authentic Greek experience: home-cooked dinners featuring fish, meat, vegetarian, and vegan options, plus a buffet breakfast with homemade pastries, eggs, fruit, and Greek yogurt. The atmosphere is friendly and family-like, with plenty of chances to mix with other guests.
Corfu itself adds a lot to the experience. The island has dramatic hiking trails, secluded bays, and historic Corfu Town, which you can visit on free shuttle transfers. The retreat can arrange extras like massages, day trips to Paleokastritsa, horse riding, or boat trips to Paxos and Antipaxos, though these cost extra. It's a great base for a mix of relaxation and exploration, and the flexible dates mean you can extend your stay if you're having a good time.
