A week by the stunning Turkish turquoise coast

Round off your summer with a sundrenched week in Turkey. Think yoga twice a day; then bask in the sun, explore the local coastline or cool down with a dip in our pool between classes. Enjoy delicious, freshly prepared food morning and evening. Everything you need for the perfect week away!

What will the yoga be like?

We'll practice yoga morning and evening. Classes will run in our fully equipped, purpose built studio. The space has big windows for us to enjoy the outdoor views but is fully enclosed and air conditioned (so no mosquitoes during savasana!). Start your day with an energising but mindful vinyasa flow. There will be ample opportunity for personal attention, and to advance your practice by learning how to adapt the postures to best suit the needs of your own body. Each evening we'll wind down with a calming and grounding practice drawing on yin and restorative styles of yoga, rounded off with a guided relaxation. You'll float out of our evening sessions feeling relaxed, renewed and restored. In addition, we will also practice some simple meditation and breathing techniques that are perfect for keeping the relaxed vibe going even after you get back home. We’ll have Wednesday free of classes to allow your body to rest and to give those that want to explore the local area more time to head off site.

Where will we be staying?

Our home for the week is in a peaceful and private position overlooking the surrounding pine forests and yet also within a few minutes of the coast, beaches, and a small chic seaside town with upmarket shopping and restaurants. Our local town Göcek is close to visitor hotspots such as Bodrum and Fethiye but retains a mellow vibe and is perfectly placed for exploring this stretch of coastline. 

Our venue has nine ensuite, air conditioned bedrooms plus two separate glamping cabins. It has a spectacular infinity pool at its centre, surrounded by plenty of loungers for you to while away your afternoons on. Despite our peaceful location, we’ll be conveniently situated only half an hour’s drive away from Dalaman airport.

What is the accommodation like?

We will be staying in a private boutique hotel perched in the hills overlooking the coast. Our nearest seaside resort town is just five minutes drive (or 30 mins walk) away. Our venue has bedrooms in the main house plus two separate, air-conditioned en-suite glamping pods in the grounds. All bedrooms are ensuite, air conditioned and have balconies or open onto a terrace. All the bedrooms can be either twins or doubles, plus if you’re coming in a three we have one room that can be made into a triple. 

What will we eat?

Enjoy exceptional meals carefully prepared by our cooks with fresh, daily sourced produce. A light snack of fresh fruit, nuts, teas and coffees will be available before morning practice. Then, after working up an appetite on your mat, feast on a plentiful brunch of local vegetarian delicacies with fresh salads plus teas, coffee and juices. Help yourself all day to fruit, water, teas and coffee. We will enjoy dinner outdoors each evening on our shaded terrace, except on Thursday when we’ll enjoy a group boat trip around the local coastline. On that Thursday, lunch will be provided on board and we’ll eat dinner at a local restaurant (the restaurant is the only meal not included in the price of this retreat).

What else will there be to do?

We think you could easily spend the week relaxing by our beautiful pool. We also have our boat trip to look forward to. But, if you get itchy feet, we are perfectly located to explore Turkey’s turquoise coast. We are easily located five minutes drive (or half an hour walk) from beautiful Göcek. This small coastal town was described by the Guardian newspaper as ‘Turkey at its sunkissed, laid-back best’ and provides cafes, waterways and beaches. There are also plentiful hiking trails in the area, lots of which are shaded enough to enjoy even on a sunny summer’s day. Better known Bodrum and Fethiye are also within easy reach. Or, if you’re feeling less adventurous, massages and treatments will be available on site. And afternoon naps are very much encouraged!

How do I get there?

Our local airport will be Dalaman, which is just a half an hour drive away. We can arrange for our driver to pick you up, and the transfer cost is approximately £45pp return. If arriving early, Gocek is a good place to stay from where you can be easily collected by one of the group transfers. If you are arriving early and staying in Gocek your hotel should pick you up from the airport if you ask. We will let you know details of our pick-up times closer to your departure.

I’m a beginner to yoga - can I still come? / I’d like to bring a friend/ partner who is a beginner - is that ok?

Of course! Everyone is welcome. Everyone who books also gets free access to our online, on demand beginners course, completion of which will set you up perfectly for our morning flow classes. And our much slower evening classes will be completely suitable for all levels without any previous experience.

Can I come on my own?

Absolutely, lots of guests on each of our retreats arrive independently. There is always a warm and welcoming atmosphere with communal activities available, plus ample opportunity for you to take some quiet time for yourself too. You can choose to have your own room or we can pair you up with another lovely solo traveller. 

Please note if you are coming with a friend and wish to share a room you each need to book your space individually. But let us know and we can make sure you are in the same room.

If you’d like to share a room but are coming alone that’s completely fine - lots of people do it! You will need to put down a deposit for your own room and if we have anyone asking to share with someone we will put them in with you. If not, you will have the room to yourself and will need to pay the full amount for your own room. Or, just ask us here if we already know of anyone seeking a roommate.

Is it all group activities or can I take some quiet me time? 

We will eat our meals together and people often group together to go on trips, take a walk or just have a chat. But everyone is also positively encouraged to take time to themselves to read, take a stroll up the coast, relax on a sun lounger, go on a solo adventure or simply nap in their room.

My friend/ partner wants to come just for a beach holiday and not take part in the classes - is that an option?

Yes! Everyone is welcome. Non-yogis can attend for a slightly discounted rate; please ask us if you’re interested in this option.

What is your cancellation policy?

Unfortunately we cannot issue refunds. Please make sure you have travel insurance that will cover both the cost of this trip and your travel arrangements if you cannot make it. Exceptions cannot be made for any reason, for example injury/illness (including COVID or COVID isolation requirements), or personal emergencies. We also cannot issue partial refunds if you decide to arrive late or leave early. Your travel insurance should also cover medical expenses in the event that you have an accident during your trip.

What if the retreat can’t go ahead due to COVID related border restrictions?

If the retreat has to be postponed or cancelled due to India closing its borders, or the UK closing its borders so that I cannot travel to host you, you will be offered a full refund. If you are travelling from a country other than the UK please make sure your insurance covers the possibility that your country closes its borders but the retreat still goes ahead. If India or the country you are travelling from has vaccination requirements for travellers we cannot refund you if you choose not to be vaccinated.

What have other people thought of your retreats?

“Hello Olivia, I hope you’re readjusting to life back in London after an amazing Greek retreat. I wanted to say thank you for a wonderful week - I really couldn’t have asked for more as it was all just perfect. And I’ve been reflecting how much I enjoyed every single yoga class with you and how the stunning scenery and setting made it easy to completely switch off and focus completely and deeply on my yoga practice. I appreciate how much time, effort and planning you devote to running your retreats and I’m very grateful. Thank you. It was truly wonderful and I felt very fortunate to join such a great group of women to share my retreat with. I look forward to seeing you and the Greek retreat group soon.” - DM, 2021

“Thank you so much for a really great long weekend. It was all wonderful but if I had to pick the top three things it would be the yoga (really enjoyable classes and nice to have the option to sit out some/all of a class although I didn’t want to), the food (really great variety, quality and quantity) and the people (who were all lovely and the classes were just the right size). I would have liked to stay longer (although nearly did – thanks Easyjet) and I thought the whole weekend was an absolute bargain for the price.” - CB 2022

“Where shall I start? Tears after the last morning of yoga, says it all. I had the most relaxing and memorable yoga week. The venue was spacious and perfectly located with amazing views! An idyllic place to relax with plenty of space to socialise. The freshly prepared and cooked foods and visits to the local village were highlights but best of all, I met, laughed and spent wonderful time with fun-loving beautiful people. Thank you so much, Olivia.” — AA, 2019

“Hi Olivia - I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the retreat! After a really busy period it was just the ticket and perfectly balanced in terms of yoga sessions, things to do and time to ourselves. You were also an incredible host and the sunset yoga was amazing!! I felt like I got a lot out of the sessions, all of which I'm hoping to remember in classes (although I'll put my hands up to possibly being lazy and forgetting at times! ). FYI, also going to be booking in for me and a friend for the January London retreat day :)” - DP, 2019
