Custom Retreat
The Custom Retreat is for those who know they need time away but don't want a pre-determined program telling them how to spend it. Whether you come alone or bring your closest friends, we'll design a retreat entirely around what you're seeking. Gentle yoga and long afternoons under the olive trees. Cooking classes and wine tastings in nearby villages. Deep healing work woven throughout, or simply rest, good food, and the kind of stillness that only comes from slowing down in one of the most beautiful corners of Italy. You tell us what you're dreaming of, and we'll create it.
Your Personal Retreat Experience
If you're here, you're craving something different. Not another vacation where you pack your days with sightseeing and come home exhausted. Something slower. Something that actually fills you up instead of depleting you.
The Custom Retreat is for those who want to design their own experience in one of the most beautiful corners of Italy. Maybe you're celebrating a milestone. Maybe you're gathering your closest friends for a week away from your regular lives. Maybe you just need to be somewhere quiet and beautiful while you figure things out.
Whatever brought you here, we'll build the retreat around it.
Your days unfold at whatever pace serves you. Maybe you wake early and do yoga as the sun rises over the olive groves. Maybe you sleep in and have a slow breakfast on the terrace. Maybe you spend the afternoon by the pool, or take a cooking class with a local chef, or visit a nearby masseria for wine tasting. Maybe you do absolutely nothing but sit under the trees and let your nervous system remember what ease feels like.
If you want to include healing work, we can weave in shamanic sessions, meditation, breathwork, or somatic practices. If you'd rather keep things gentle, we'll focus on movement, rest, good food, and being held by the land. Both are perfect. This is about what you need, not what you're supposed to do.
The setting itself does half the work. Valle d'Itria is all rolling hills, ancient stone walls, and olive trees that have been growing for over a hundred years. The light here is magical. Softer. Golden. Time moves slower. Your body can feel it the moment you arrive.
You'll stay in a traditional trullo surrounded by countryside, with complete privacy and space to spread out. Meals are prepared with fresh, local ingredients. Everything is designed to nourish you, from the food to the environment to the way your days are structured (or not structured at all).
This retreat works for solo travelers who want their own private experience, or for groups of friends/families who want to escape together. Two people or eight. Four days or two weeks. It's all entirely up to you.
By the time you leave, you'll be more you. More rested. More connected to yourself and the people you came with. More alive to the simple pleasure of being here, in a body, on this earth.

Personalization
This retreat is entirely yours to shape.
Length: We recommend at least 4 days to truly settle in and let your system unwind, but we're flexible. Stay for a long weekend, a full week, or longer if you want to really sink into the slower rhythm of life here. Some women come for two or three weeks. If that's calling to you, we'll make it happen.
Group Size: This works beautifully as a private solo retreat, or you can bring your people. Small groups of 2-8 women are ideal. Whether it's your best friends, your sisters, or a group celebrating something together, we'll create space for all of you.
What You Want to Include: Tell us what you're dreaming of. Maybe you want daily yoga and meditation with lots of free time to rest. Maybe you want to include deep healing sessions or shamanic work. Maybe you want cooking classes, wine tastings, and excursions to nearby beaches or hilltop villages. Maybe you just want space to be without any agenda at all. We'll design the experience around what actually serves you.
Your Schedule: We work around your availability. Choose your dates and we'll make it happen.
Reach out and let's talk through what you're imagining. This is about creating the experience you've been craving, whatever that looks like.
