The retreat is set in a peaceful, scenic Mediterranean location, known for its natural beauty and calming coastal views. 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. It is a perfect location to disconnect from the stresses of daily life. 

The meals are crafted from fresh, local ingredients, highlighting Mediterranean cuisine. Expect dishes featuring olive oil, fresh vegetables, legumes, grains, meats and seafood. There are 2 daily meals included. They offer options for various dietary needs – just let us know in advance!
