Join us for an unforgettable week on the Greek island of Lefkada, where turquoise waters, dramatic cliffs, charming seaside villages, and the slower pace of island life create the perfect setting to reconnect with yourself. Our home for the week is Lefkada Retreat Center, a peaceful sanctuary overlooking the Ionian Sea, offering the ideal balance of comfort, nature, and breathtaking views.
This retreat is a blend of intentional movement, meaningful connection, and authentic Greek adventure. Each day will include one to two yoga practices designed to leave you feeling grounded, energized, and restored, along with nourishing Mediterranean meals shared around the table. We'll spend a day exploring the island by private boat, discover the local culture through food and wine, wander picturesque villages, and leave plenty of space for swimming, reading by the pool, journaling, or simply soaking in the beauty of Greece. Your retreat includes accommodations, all yoga instruction, daily meals, and every curated excursion, so all you have to do is arrive and enjoy the journey.

Owner and Founder Sara Chaplin's journey into yoga began soon after college, and it immediately resonated with her. The practice fulfilled a deep longing, providing a supportive haven to release tension, alleviate stress, and reconnect with her authentic self. Since 2004, Sara has immersed herself in an ongoing exploration of both the physical and philosophical dimensions of yoga. On the mat, Sara brings a delightful mix of lightheartedness and playfulness, creating a welcoming space for practitioners to relax and embrace the present moment. As an eager learner, she approaches each class with curiosity, always seeking new insights and personal growth.
We offer two yoga classes a day on our yoga retreats: a morning Vinyasa power flow class which is quite active and invigorating, and a restorative Yin yoga class in the evening with a longer relaxation.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the daily itinerary?
We’re very flexible when it comes to schedules and itineraries. We have two yoga classes scheduled a day, in the morning and early evening, but of course all are optional. The rest of the day and evening is completely up to you, we’ll be there to offer up ideas for the group!
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I share a room with someone else?
We’d be happy to arrange this, although most people joining us on their own seem to like their own room. We normally put people in a shared room if they’re traveling together and request it specifically – friends, siblings, couples etc. However, if we do get requests from two people traveling on their own who would like to share, we can put you two in a shared room. Please contact us if this is your preference.
