YOGA & ADVENTURE
7-day/6-night All-inclusive Wellness Experience
( June, July, August, and September 2026 )
Rovinj town is called the pearl of the Mediterranean and has become “one of the most desirable locations in the world” by National Geographic.
Istria region. Bella Istria. Also called Little Tuscany.
Known for its natural wonders, stone cities situated on the historical hilltops, surrounded by entrancing nature, graceful vineyards and fields of olive trees, old roads made for long eye gazing into the colourful landscapes. Both soothing and inspiring songs.
The program gives you the taste of its rich history but also takes you to destinations far from the crowds, hidden small islands and your own sunset sky.
Some evenings are free to explore the magical old town and get lost in the summerish tourist buzz if you wish.
Temperatures call for wise movement, a refreshing sea, and shady trees. And that is exactly the rhythm of the retreat.
All adventure programs are guided by us. Equipment is the best there is for each adventure. Professional and personal care is yours to enjoy.
““Awesome. Tasted every second of my stay like an elixir.””
Morning rhythm
7:30 - We start the day by waking up the body with outdoor yoga in our backyard, sometimes on the beach, deep breathing in the salty air surrounded by pine trees. Morning swim is to say “Hello beautiful day!”
9:00 - Homemade power snacks & cold press juices
9:30 - Inspiring and interactive morning talks with Marin about the wisdom of the Five Elements
11:00 - Brunch is festive in colours and tastes. We feed you joyfully and well. Organic, vegan/vegetarian.
12:30 - After brunch on some days, you have a few hours to relax, enjoy a massage, have contemplative leisure time, or go for a swim before the adventure excursions start. On other days after brunch, we go straight to the daily excursions.
15:30 - Adventure begins. Each day a different one. New horizons, new skills, new experiences, new challenges, learning to enjoy them all, each day breathtaking sunsets, the wisdom of nature revealing itself to you.
Fruit snacks provided
Around 18:00 - dining in exceptional, local places in Rovinj or around the Istrian region.
All dinners are included in the price, and where we will keep it a surprise.
““The food was an absolute dream. I have never eaten so well in all of my vacation. Absolutely great !!””
Evenings.
On some days we stay on excursion until Sunset and after that, you are free to explore the town, go for ice cream and a walk, or stay in our zen garden and enjoy the peaceful night. We encourage you to move in your own rhythm.
On some days, we stay on an excursion after sunset, so we come home at dark.
““Rovinj is also a beautiful part of the world. The water, climate, and old town are all just perfect!” ”
““The five elements retreat was a fantastic experience. The balance between doing things and learning stuff, between doing things and doing nothing is outstanding””
Activity highlights
Daily morning yoga classes / Daily talks about the Five Elements
Each day is a different style of yoga and deepening the Five Elements Wisdom.
We thoughtfully design more than 5 adventure excursions, and we will choose them and combine them according to weather conditions and season. Not always can all the excursions be fit into one week (depending on the wind ), but we will do our best that you experience most of them.
Kayaking / Biking
Cycling along the coast through the parks and landscapes into charming natural beauties until we reach the beach, from where we continue with the kayaks.
Exploring the waters around the Rovinj archipelago and stopping on the gorgeous island far from the crowds.
““Natalie’s yoga was a beautiful way to start the day and she was so kind and hospitable.””
During low season we usually choose to go kayaking on some other spot in Istria region.
“ “My favorite thing was kayaking to an island and then exploring this island and swimming in the surrounding water, before paddling back as the sunset.””
Stand-up paddling on Sunset
We take the SUP boards with us. Exploring and enjoying the remote beach where you can relax, swim, snorkel and just absorb nature's magnificence.
Yoga on the SUP is a fun challenge invitation.
Windsurfing lessons - Sailing
Ready to try windsurfing yet? Have some fun with the wind? Go out of your comfort zone?
All equipment is provided and trained instructors, Marin being the main one.
No previous windsurfing experience needed. You don't need to be physically fit to try windsurfing lessons with us. If you prefer, you can also choose to do SUP ( stand up paddling ), go swimming or just relax on the beach.
Don’t tell anyone, this is a highlight for most of our guests!
Windsurfing lessons start with simulation on the land. If you already have windsurfing experience or a first-timer, we promise windy fun, good laughter and nature’s touch.
Hiking & Cave exploring
Hike and grapple to a secret and real yogic cave where one saint was living
1000 years ago. Inspiring story and splendid scenery. One of our dearest places and the story is the basis of our retreat program.
The hike is short but intense (medium inclination) with plenty of time to relax on the very remote beach, swim, and meditate in the cave.
If the winds let us, we might take you to the cave in a unique way!
Sunset boat excursion
One of the best vay to experience the beauty of Rovinj’s archipelago is by boat while the last Sun rays dive into the water to give light to dolphins. And yes, we are sometimes lucky to see them.
Educational Visit to a Biodynamic farm of olive oil and wine
““The concept is surprisingly unique. I did appreciate a lot the structured flowing of the retreat with this special caring and spiritual touch.””
Fire Ritual
We celebrate nature with music around the fire; sometimes we dance, sometimes we just sit and talk.

“I had an amazing time. Such a memorable week. Marin and Natali are amazing hosts. Our apartment was comfortable and clean, the food that Natali made was so delicious, the yoga classes were challenging and the lectures and Marin’s stories always fascinating to hear. My absolute favourite part were the activities, in particular the kayaking and the wind surfing days. It might have been our group in particular, but there was such an amazing vibe at the guesthouse throughout the week and by the end we were all feeling so close, like a new found family. And Marin and Natali always went the extra step to help us with whatever they could. I have such amazing memories from the week, I would do it all over again in a heartbeat!”
