“Wherever you go, go with your whole heart.” — Confucius
Savor Spain: September 17th-24th, 2026
We’re so delighted you’ve found your way here. Spain holds a special place in our hearts, and we are over-the-moon to announce our 3rd retreat in the stunning coastal town of Sitges. Each retreat, our time here deepens with even more connection, beauty, and magic—and 2026 will be our most expansive offering yet.
A Retreat Rooted in Beauty, Culture & Connection
Our home for the week is Can Marcer de la Penya, a lovingly restored 17th-century Catalan masia tucked into the peaceful Garraf Natural Park. With sweeping views of vineyards, mountains, and the glittering Mediterranean Sea, this sanctuary offers the perfect balance of privacy, comfort, and inspiration. Just minutes from the beaches of Sitges and a quick train ride to Barcelona, it is the ideal blend of seclusion and accessibility.
The villa features:
- Ten luxurious private bedrooms
- A heated private pool
- Indoor + outdoor yoga spaces with panoramic views
- A covered open-air fitness space
- Maid service
- Spacious gathering areas and quiet nooks for rest
- Flowering pergolas, shaded patios, and open-air dining spaces
- Easy access to Barcelona, Montserrat, Sitges waterfront, and the Penedès wine region
This is a place to breathe deeply, slow down, and savor the Mediterranean way of life.
A Culinary Experience to Remember
Our beloved private chefs—Jane, Melissa, and Izzy—create beautifully crafted meals inspired by Catalonia’s rich culinary traditions. Expect seasonal, farm-to-table dishes prepared with love and artistry, enjoyed al fresco as the sun melts into the vineyards around us.
Local Wisdom & Healing
We are honored to welcome our dear friend and local guide, Helen Vidal Marco, who was born and raised in Sitges. Helen is a gifted massage therapist, yoga teacher, and healer whose presence brings a warm, grounding energy to the entire week. She’ll be offering therapeutic treatments, a special yoga experience, and Stand-Up Paddle Board Yoga on the turquoise Mediterranean waters.
Yoga as Your Anchor—Morning & Evening
Each day begins and ends with yoga overlooking rolling vineyards, soft Mediterranean light, and the expansive Penedès valley. These bookends to your day invite you to reconnect—mind, body, and spirit—while settling into the rhythm of Catalonian life.
Our practices will be a blend of mindful flow, restorative work, meditation, breathwork, and joyful movement—always accessible, always welcoming.
Cultural Adventures Included
Your retreat includes incredible immersive excursions, such as:
- A guided day in Barcelona, including an unforgettable visit to the iconic Sagrada Familia and Parc Güell
- A half-day journey to the sacred Montserrat Monastery
- A two hour photo tour of the majestic city of Sitges
- You’ll also have plenty of opportunities to design your perfect free days: visit local wineries, wander coastal paths, shop in charming boutiques, lounge on the beach, kayak or SUP tours, join a food tour, explore by bike, unwind with spa and wellness options in the luxury of our masia, savor regional cuisine, or head back into Barcelona to soak in even more of its vibrant culture.
Or simply stay at the masia—read by the pool, nap under the pergola, journal in the gardens, or soak in the view.
A True Haven for Rest, Adventure & Renewal
This retreat is designed for anyone craving connection—to nature, to culture, to your body, to a warm and welcoming community, and to the deeper layers of yourself.
Whether your soul is seeking adventure, nourishment, stillness, or inspiration—you’ll find it here.
We cannot wait to welcome you to this breathtaking corner of the world and share the magic of Spain with you.
Join us for a week of beauty, joy, movement, and Mediterranean ease.
