Wellness Escape with Yoga, SUP & Hiking in Corfu

The retreat is built around two yoga sessions daily—one in the morning around 8:30 am and another at sunset around 6 pm. The morning class is an activating flow with elements of Hatha and Vinyasa, while the evening session focuses on yin yoga and meditation. Classes are taught by a small team that includes Martha, who trained in Iyengar and Vinyasa flow, Paola, who has over a decade of Hatha yoga teaching across different countries, and Emily, who focuses on slow alignment-based vinyasa and Pilates. All are comfortable adapting sessions for beginners as well as experienced practitioners.

After brunch at 10 am, most days have a guided group activity: kayaking along the coast to find sandy bays that are only reachable by water, stand-up paddleboarding excursions, or guided hiking and walking tours on trails that wind through Corfu's nature reserves. The hikes vary in difficulty and distance, with options for those who want a gentle stroll versus a longer climb with panoramic views. The free shuttle to Corfu Town gives you a chance to explore the old town and its shops if you want a break from the beach.

The accommodation is a simple, budget-friendly seafront hotel in the Sunset Beach area, around a five-minute walk to the beach and close to the Agios Gordios village centre. Each room has a sea view, private shower and toilet, balcony or terrace, air conditioning, basic kitchenette with a kettle and fridge, and free wifi. The hotel isn't brand new—some past guests have noted the age and cleanliness could be better—but the value and the setting tend to compensate.

Meals are a highlight. Breakfast is a healthy spread, lunch is a lighter brunch, and dinner is a home-cooked Greek meal that changes daily, with meat, fish, vegetarian, and vegan options always available. Most produce is organic and grown on the island, and the cook takes care of any dietary requirements. There's no five-star dining, but it's properly cooked, filling, and often eaten together at a big table where the group gets to know each other.
