About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

If you’re a woman seeking clarity, personal growth, and connection with like-minded souls, this retreat was lovingly created for you.

Over 8 days and 7 nights, you’ll step away from your busy life and into a nourishing space filled with deep conversations, joyful movement, delicious food, and the magical energy of Puglia—where ancient towns, golden beaches, and endless olive groves invite you to slow down and savor.​

The golden sun dips below the Adriatic horizon as you sip a chilled aperitivo. The breeze carries the scent of lemon blossoms and the salty kiss of the sea. Laughter drifts across the table as you share stories with new friends who already feel like sisters.

Your days are filled with exploration—wandering charming stone villages, cooking pasta from scratch, dancing to traditional pizzica music, meditating in nature, and restoring your energy through yoga or simply resting on the beach.

Here, you’re not just on vacation—you’re coming home to yourself.

Looking for clarity or a fresh look at life…this is your retreat!
When I signed up for the retreat, I had no idea what I was actually getting into. When I arrived, the Villa was absolutely amazing! But what I would find inside was even more spectacular. Let me just say that the four days spent there were even more illuminating than I imagined. Thank you for what I can only say was a life-changing experience for me, and I know it will be for my family, too. Thank you, Brenda and team, for everything.
