AMORGOS | GREECE RETREAT

October 5 - 11, 2024 | Aegialis Hotel + Spa

FRIDAY Fly into Athens, Paros, Naxos, Mykonos or Santorini. Head to your hotel and drop your bags. Walk down the narrow street, find a restaurant and take in the moment. You’ve landed. After the meal you head straight to bed. Before your head hits the pillow, you’re already half asleep.

SATURDAY Wake up, hit the cafe and catch the ferry to the island of Amorgos. Aegialis staff will bring you and your bags from the ferry landing to the hotel. Swim or enjoy the ocean breeze from your private balcony. We’ll see you for dinner, let the retreat begin.

SUNDAY Wake up, sip on something warm, and meet us for yoga in our dedicated studio. So much blue, so much space, so much to explore. We are here.

MONDAY Get properly introduced to the island by a local guide as we hike through villages, white washed chapels, a winding path and so many sweeping views.

TUESDAY Soak in the saltwater pool, get a massage, sauna, steam or treat yourself to a facial. You can hardly keep your eyes open. This is heaven.

WEDNESDAY The yoga, the views, the people, the garden, these meals. You knew it would be good, but this experience and this group exceeded all your expectations.

THURSDAY If only you could fit this place and all that blue into your suitcase. The next best thing? An afternoon of exploring, eating and shopping in neighboring villages.

FRIDAY Go home or stay and continue to explore, it’s not the end of the journey. You’ve only just begun.

LOCATION

Aegialis Hotel & Spa is conveniently located within walking distance of the two most beautiful beaches in Amorgos: Aegiali and Levrossos. The hotel is only 1km from Aegiali’s shops, cafes, and restaurants.

Enjoy stunning views of the Aegean sea from your room's private patio and access to the spa's sauna, hamam (steam room), jacuzzi, indoor heated seawater swimming pool, and fitness center. Your stay also includes a 30-minute massage at the spa.

Amorgos attracts wellness and yoga enthusiasts with its rejuvenating energy, landscape, nourishing meals, and abundance of therapeutic herbs, making it an ideal location for healing.

GETTING TO AMORGOS

Amorgos can only be accessed by ferry. You can fly into Athens and take the LONG ferry or fly into Santorini, Naxos, or Mykonos and take the SHORT ferry. If you're prone to seasickness, take the shorter ferry and look for the High Speed option.

Check schedules on Ferry Hopper and plan to arrive on time for the first day, allowing for wind delays. Shuttle from either ferry port to the resort on October 5 and 11th is included in your rate.

I encourage you consider the length of travel, jet-lag, and possible delays. Please add an extra night or two in Greece before the retreat if possible.
