Wellness Escape on Sardinia's Hidden Island: Yoga, Breathwork & Sea Views

The retreat is hosted at Restcoast Retreat, a villa set on 2.5 hectares of private land on Isola di San Pietro, a small island reached by ferry from Portovesme on the Sardinian mainland. The island is deliberately off the main tourist track, which means the beaches and cliffs stay quiet even in summer. The daily rhythm is simple: in the morning there’s a breathwork session or a yoga class, led either by Alexandra, who trained as a yoga teacher in Zürich, or by Alexander, who specializes in meditation, breathwork, and shamanic practices and has studied with teachers like Dr. Joe Dispenza and Pascal K’in Greub. After brunch, you’re free to explore. The hosts can arrange e-bike rentals, and a day’s use of an e-bike is included when you book through this site. Evenings bring a second session—often yin-style yoga or a guided meditation—followed by dinner together as a group. On some nights there’s a cacao ceremony or a shamanic session, but you’re never pressured to join. Everything is optional, and the hosts are clear about that. You can sit out any session and just rest. What makes the retreat feel special is not any single activity but the combination of the setting, the small group, and the care the hosts put into the space. The villa has a pool, a terrace with sea views, and a hot tub; the rooms are simple but comfortable, with air conditioning. The whole place was created by the two Alexes, who both went through their own healing journeys and now share the tools that worked for them. You’ll leave with a few practical practices—breathing techniques, meditation styles—that you can actually keep using at home.
