Journey to Lefkada, Greece, a Paradise in the Ionian Sea
September 6-13, 2026
From $3295 per person
“Dance with the waves, move with the sea, let the rhythm of the water set your soul free. “
Christy Ann Martine, poet
Return with Jeni and Rocky to the lush island of Lefkada, Greece in the Ionian Sea, for the ultimate off-the-beaten-path yoga retreat. Experience a place of absolute harmony and relaxation, the perfect antidote for a busy, stressful life.
Built following a dream to embrace nature’s silence, Urania Villas sit gently within the green mountains, offering stunning sea-blue views of paradise. Each villa features its own private pool and every bedroom within the villas has its own en suite bathroom.
The warm, turquoise waters, the spectacular vistas, the inspiring energy of the island, and the delicious Mediterranean food have drawn Jeni and Rocky back to Lefkada over and over again. This will be their fourth retreat in Lefkada but the first one to stay in the spectacular Urania Villas on the southwest side of the island.
Urania Villas sit high on the cliff above the gorgeous Ammoudi Beach. The area belongs to the environmental protection network Nature 2000, because it is a habitat for dolphins and seals. Ammoudi Beach is a completely private, uncrowded location and can be accessed only through a hike down from Urania Villas property or via boat. The crystal clear blue and turquoise waters will blow your mind.
