How to choose the right European retreat
Start with the setting you want. For sun, choice and easy access, Spain is unbeatable — Kaliyoga and Suryalila for a farm-and-mountain feel, Ibiza Retreats and La Crisalida for the islands and coast. For a deep nature reset, Vale de Moses in Portugal and Silver Island in Greece are as off-grid as it gets. For coast and Mediterranean ease, Yoga Rocks on Crete is hard to beat, while Eremito in Italy is the pick for silence and solitude. And if you would rather practise close to home or in a city, triyoga and 42 Acres cover studio and countryside in the UK.
