Deep Relaxation Retreat -
7 day Greek Island Getaway
Vericoco Retreat, Kefalonia
23rd-30th May 2026
We’re going on holiday…
Imagine waking up on a Greek island to the sound of the sea, sunlight spilling across your bedroom, and nothing in your diary except yoga, rest, and long, lazy meals.
This May, I’m inviting a small group to join me in Kefalonia for a week of sunshine, movement, and deep rest.
Kefalonia is famous for its turquoise coves, friendly locals, and — if you’ve ever read Captain Corelli’s Mandolin — a certain romance woven into the air. It’s a beautiful gem in the Ionian Sea, and the perfect place to stop rushing, stretch out, and breathe.
How we’ll be spending our days…
Think of this retreat as your pause button. For a whole week you get to step out of the noise and just slow down. There’ll be yoga, of course, but also big stretches of time for you to wander off, nap, swim, or simply do nothing at all. Whether you’re coming with a friend or arriving solo, you’ll slot straight into the easy rhythm of the group.
Our mornings will start gently — a bit of breathwork, a flowing sequence to wake us up, maybe pausing on a pose or two if the mood takes us. Nothing rigid, nothing you have to keep up with.
We’ll move with the energy of the group and let the practice take its shape naturally.
Afternoons are wide open for lazy swims, long lunches, or disappearing into a hammock with your book. By the time the heat softens, we’ll gather again for slower, grounding practices that leave you floating into the evening — ready for dinner under the stars and the kind of conversations that happen easily when nobody’s in a rush.

How to Get There
Kefalonia Airport
Kefalonia is a stunning Ionian island that is easily accessible by both air and sea. Kefalonia Airport (EFL) is located just outside Argostoli and is well connected, especially during the summer months:
Direct flights are available from many UK and major European airports (especially the UK, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, etc.).
If you're traveling from outside Europe, it's often easiest to fly into Athens International Airport (ATH). From Athens, you can either:
Take a short domestic flight (about 1 hour) to Kefalonia.
Or choose to travel by ferry.
Journey From Argostoli to VericocoOnce you land at Argostoli Airport, our retreat is just a 15–20 minute drive away. Taxis are readily available at the airport, or feel free to contact us to help coordinate your taxi journey with other participants. Transportation to the retreat can be arranged and is approximately €15 one way (minimum 3 people in a group). By taxi, the cost is roughly €40 one way from the airport.
