The finca sits among vineyards and almond trees on the edge of Xaló, with mountain views all around. It is 800m from the town's restaurants, bars and shops — close enough to wander in for dinner, far enough that the evenings are quiet. The property has seven guest bedrooms and suites sleeping 14 in total. Every room is a double that can be made up as a twin, with its own ensuite shower room and an outside terrace or balcony.

Movement comes in two mat Pilates, Barre and Yoga sessions across the stay, programmed by Reformer Lab's instructors. Alongside those there are two breathwork and deep relaxation sessions, an essential oils workshop, and a 10km guided morning hike through the vineyards and almond groves. The August retreat adds a foundational facial masterclass with Margaret from @madre_studios, including an Apoterra travel skincare kit — Illuminating Oil Cleanser, Neroli Facial Mist and Vitamin C Regenerative Balm in an Apoterra cosmetic bag.

Food is handled by a private chef working to seasonal menus: breakfast daily, four lunches and two evening meals, with vegetarian options. On the remaining two evenings the group eats out locally in Xaló and pays individually. Drinking water is included; soft drinks, wine and alcohol are not, and there is an honesty bar by the pool.

The full itinerary is sent out in a WhatsApp group around eight weeks before departure, along with packing tips. Private transfers to and from Alicante airport are included, timed to meet the recommended group flights from Belfast. Check-in is from 3pm on the Friday and check-out by 11am on the Tuesday.

The team behind it runs three Reformer Lab studios in Moira, Antrim and Portstewart in Northern Ireland, so the instructors leading the week are the ones who teach there week to week. The May 2027 retreat sold out; August is the only date left in 2027.
