Retreats

Nestled deep in the Sierra de las Nieves, this retreat offers a rare escape into a UNESCO-protected wilderness of rugged peaks, olive groves, and ancient forests. The 16th-century monastery setting invites you to slow down and reconnect with nature’s raw beauty. Every sunrise and sunset becomes part of your experience.

Enjoy twice-daily 90-minute sessions blending Ashtanga, Classical Hatha Yoga, and Qi Gong. Guided by over 20 years of experience, each practice is designed to restore balance, strength, and inner calm. Move in harmony with the rhythms of the land.

Rooted in a 500-year legacy of stillness and devotion, the former monastery offers a truly unique retreat atmosphere. The peaceful surroundings hold space for reflection and deep inner work. It’s more than a stay—it’s an experience.

Accommodation at El Convento is a celebration of "simple but beautiful" off-grid living. Our eco-huts are uniquely crafted from natural materials like wood, adobe, and straw bale; each is solar-powered with a private veranda perfect for breathing in the mountain air.

Some of the darkest skies in Europe.

Between sessions, help yourself to fresh coffee, herbal teas, and wholesome snacks available throughout the day.

Surrounded by wild mountain herbs, spring-fed pools, and unspoiled night skies, this is a place of deep stillness and natural wonder. Wander ancient trails or simply breathe in the crisp Andalusian air. Here, nature becomes your sanctuary and teacher.

Practice on a stunning rooftop shala with panoramic mountain views, immersed in the sounds of nature. Through breathwork, movement, and energy cultivation, you’ll reconnect with your body and spirit. This is deep, transformative inner work in its purest form.

​Whether you are reposing among the olive groves or surrendering to the weightless embrace of the spring-fed pool, every moment is an opportunity to slow down, strip away the non-essential, and hold space for the deep inner work your Spirit has been seeking.

For those who seek an even deeper connection, scattered among the wildflowers, our private bell tents provide a bohemian retreat experience where you can feel the heartbeat of Mother Earth and gaze at the unpolluted Night Sky, On clear nights, which are common, you can see The Milky Way.

Gather for meals in the beautifully restored San Juan Hermitage, where our resident chef crafts inspiring, plant-based cuisine designed to nourish from the inside out.
