The first part of the retreat is set in a peaceful, scenic Mediterranean location, known for its natural beauty and calming coastal views called Sea Rocks Resort. Sprawled within endless olive groves, with stunning views of mountains, sky, and sea. This immersion is close to Irene’s hometown of Kalamata, which we will also explore for 5 nights, 6 days. It is a perfect location to disconnect from the stresses of daily life.
