About this Retreat
Your Guides
Damira Jelavić is the founder of Ministry of Happiness, a retreat concept created to offer women space to pause, reset, and reconnect with themselves.
Her work is shaped by years of experience living and working internationally, including time spent in Dubai, where the idea for Ministry of Happiness was first developed.
Rather than a traditional coaching approach, Damira focuses on creating environments where real connection, reflection, and meaningful conversations happen naturally.
She brings together women from different backgrounds and creates a space that is both structured and relaxed — allowing participants to slow down while still gaining clarity and new perspectives.
Her retreats are known for their intimate atmosphere, attention to detail, and balance between personal growth and effortless experience.

Schedule
Each day follows a gentle, intentional rhythm designed to help you slow down, reconnect, and fully recharge — without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.

After practice, you’ll enjoy a nourishing Mediterranean brunch prepared by a private chef, using fresh, seasonal ingredients.
Late mornings transition into guided sessions such as meditation, workshops, or group discussions focused on clarity, connection, and personal reset.
Afternoons are intentionally spacious — you can relax by the pool or beach, explore the surroundings, or simply take time for yourself.
On selected days, this time includes curated experiences such as a private boat trip, beach club visit, or local exploration.
Evenings are reserved for connection and enjoyment, with optional dinners at carefully selected local restaurants or relaxed gatherings at the villa.
The day gently winds down with free time, reflection, or quiet moments, allowing you to fully absorb the experience.
Each element of the day is thoughtfully designed — giving you both structure and freedom, so you can experience true rest without losing a sense of purpose.
