About Nio Far Retreat
Mission & Vision
Founded by French artist Yaya Minté and Dilek, who is Franco-Turkish and deeply connected to the Datça region since childhood, our retreats are designed as immersive gatherings rather than commercial wellness products.
We believe in small groups, authentic spaces and meaningful encounters that reconnect people to themselves, to nature and to each other.
Rooted in the Mediterranean spirit, our vision is to create transformative experiences that feel personal, grounded and culturally alive.
The retreat is held in both French and English and welcomes an international group of participants.
Beyond language, we also value moments of silence, presence and authentic connection
Venue & Amenities
A house that we live in together, for the duration retreat.
You can move around freely, as if you were at home, while enjoying the comfort and attention to detail of a well-maintained space. It's a place of calm, sharing, and also silence, where everyone naturally finds their place. The house is surrounded by nature, with an open view of the sea. You can settle in, unwind, and simply live.

Getting Here
Directions
The nearest recommended airport is Bodrum Milas Airport (BJV). We organize a group transfer from Bodrum Airport on the arrival day, coordinated with the daily direct flight from Paris to Bodrum operated by Transavia. This is the most convenient route as it avoids a connection through Istanbul.
From Bodrum Airport, the journey to the retreat house takes approximately 2 hours and 45 minutes by road, passing through beautiful coastal landscapes and mountain views along the Datça peninsula.
Participants arriving from other countries or on different flights are also welcome. The nearest alternative airport is Dalaman Airport (DLM), located about 3 hours from Datça.
Please note that the included transfer is only organized from Bodrum Airport at the scheduled group arrival time. Private transfers from Bodrum or Dalaman can be arranged upon request for an additional cost.
