South of the Amalfi Coast, this retreat unfolds within a historic seaside palazzo where sea light and leafy gardens set a calm pace. Mornings flow through breath-led asana, while afternoons return to restorative practice and embodied awareness. Between sessions, there is time for swims in clear water and quiet coastal walks, with shaded corners for reading and rest. Visiting therapists from India bring world-class care through personalized treatments and thoughtful guidance throughout practices.

The Destination

South of the Amalfi Coast, the quieter Cilento coast is where clear Tyrrhenian waters meet pine-framed beaches and olive groves, with a medieval hilltown above. Set in a historic seaside palazzo in Santa Maria di Castellabate, the retreat opens to Blue Flag shores and amber-lit evenings along the seafront.
