The Lotus Room Yoga Retreat 2022: Sicily
7th - 11th September 2022

A yoga retreat to return to Self, reconnect to Source and recharge your vitality

Retreat to Sicily!

Our retreat centre this year is a family-run farmhouse, built in the late nineteenth century. The farmhouse is located in the countryside, on top of a bright hill a few kilometers away from the Ionian Sea, from which it is easy to enjoy the stunning landscape with its unique Unesco heritage cities and its beautiful sea.

Wake up in

The farmhouse is surrounded by ten hectares of land including a wide meadow and several plantations such as an olive grove, carob trees, an orchard, the aroma park, the organic vegetable garden and a small mill.

Experience Yoga in beautiful nature

Birdsong, beautiful views over the garden and clean, crisp air will be your companions during yoga practice on the yoga terrace.

Sleep well

Feel at home in the warm and comfortable rustic apartments. All accommodation is decorated in a traditional style and provided with a private bathroom, an equipped kitchenette, heating and air conditioning as well as an exclusive external patio.

Eat well

This retreat centre attaches importance to organic and eco-friendly ways of growing food. Look forward to three delicious vegetarian meals per day, inspired by simple and ancient recipes from the Sicilian tradition. The ingredients used in the kitchen are self-produced and certified organic.

Have a wonderful time!

A perfect place to live in direct contact with nature, its sounds and rhythms that accompany the succession of seasons, in an atmosphere of sharing and deep respect for the beauty around. You can also choose to pamper yourself with an ayurvedic or thai massage.

You can also visit the many art cities characteristic of the famous Sicilian Baroque, recognized by UNESCO as an artistic heritage of humanity.
