Women's Pilates & Recharge Weekend in the Sitges Hills, Spain

The retreat runs Friday 16 October to Sunday 18 October 2026, two nights, three days. You arrive Friday afternoon to a private villa surrounded by lemon gardens and jasmine, with a welcome drink in hand, and the whole weekend is deliberately loose — the page says outright there's no schedule that doesn't bend.

Each day holds Pilates with Anisha. She's a mat Pilates instructor and Level 3 personal trainer who also teaches indoor cycling, Les Mills classes and runs half marathons and HYROX races. The movement work is grounding rather than punishing — the pitch is that it meets your body where it is, whether you've never done Pilates or you practise regularly. Breathwork is woven in alongside the mat work.

There's a guided walk out of the villa door into the Garraf Natural Park, a protected stretch of pine forest and limestone hills with the Mediterranean visible on the horizon. Afternoons are free: swim in the private pool, sit on the arched terrace, journal, or do nothing at all. Evenings are dinners cooked in the villa kitchen and eaten together.

What separates this from a standard Pilates weekend is the setting and the size. Villa Jazmín is a home, not a retreat centre — there are no corridors of other guests and no groups larger than eight women. The Garraf hills sit right behind the property, Sitges and its beaches are 15 minutes downhill, and Barcelona El Prat Airport is 35 minutes away, so it's genuinely easy to reach for a weekend.

Food is Mediterranean and cooked on site — vegetables from nearby markets, good olive oil, herbs from the garden. Breakfast and brunch are long, lunches are light, dinners are the main event. The kitchen is predominantly plant-based but will serve high-quality meat and fish, and they say they accommodate any intolerance or dietary requirement if you flag it when booking.

Roughly a third of the time is structured and the rest is yours, which is unusual for a three-day retreat and is clearly the point of this one.
