FIVE ELEMENTS HOUSE

Our house has shared twin rooms for single travelers or friends and double rooms for couples. There is only one private single room however sometimes we give a double room as a private single.

If you are a single traveler we encourage you to share a room with another participant of the same gender. Even though you might think “ I don’t want to share a room with a stranger”, this person will just after a few hours maybe know you deeper than your closest friends. Retreats are special places where there are no strangers, just the support of like-minded yogis. We are also trying to put together guests of similar ages.

 

Since 1989, Marin’s family Guesthouse has been offering a peaceful stay for travellers and visitors of Rovinj. In 2010 a Yoga shala was built, so the house became a Yoga Center for the local community and travellers. In 2017 we started with Yoga & Adventure retreats hosting people from all over the world. In 2020 we build a beautiful yoga space in our garden with a Meditation ( Wish ) Tree in the centre as our quiet guardian.

Our Chill out area is for socializing with an outdoor kitchen and dining area. Outdoor yoga space is available to you always.

Yoga Garden

 

The house offers a family and welcoming vibe. Marin’s father Frane loves creating with hands, so all the wooden furniture like beds, cupboards, benches, tables, yoga floor you will enjoy, is made by him. 

Marin’s mom Anica is caring for the garden and all the impeccable housekeeping. In a hopeful “is it time for a treat yet” eyes gaze, she is usually followed by our cats Budo and Mali, furry part of the team and family.

My best friend and her husband recommended my fiance and I to Five Elements as they had the best holiday with them last year. We had a wonderful week with Marin and Natali being the best hosts. We woke up to yoga every morning followed by a different freshly made healthy breakfast every morning. Every day, there was a different adventure to go on; our highlights being kayaking and windsurfing. Met lovely people on the group. The guesthouse was comfortable, clean and very relaxing. We felt we were living in nature. We would recommend anyone to this amazing experience. Plus Rovinj is an amazing place to visit; beautiful and tranquil. Melissa & Daniel

Sharing a room on a yoga retreat

Here are some advantages of sharing a room on a yoga retreat:

  • Social interaction: Sharing a room provides an opportunity to connect with other participants on a deeper level. You can engage in conversations, share experiences, and develop new friendships with like-minded individuals who share your interest in yoga and wellness.

  • Support and motivation: Being in the same living space as fellow yogis can create a supportive environment. You can encourage each other in your yoga practice, share tips and techniques, and inspire one another to stay committed to the retreat's goals.

  • Enhanced learning experience: When you share a room with someone, you may have the chance to learn from their experiences and knowledge. You can exchange insights, discover new yoga styles or meditation techniques, and gain different perspectives that enrich your overall retreat experience.

  • Emotional support: Retreats can sometimes bring up intense emotions or personal challenges as you delve deeper into your practice. Having a roommate can provide emotional support and a sense of companionship during these times. You can lean on each other, discuss any concerns, and provide a listening ear.

  • Cultural exchange: Yoga retreats often attract participants from various backgrounds and cultures. Sharing a room with someone from a different country or culture can offer a unique opportunity for cultural exchange, allowing you to learn about their customs, traditions, and ways of life.
