Greek Retreat FAQs

Are you considering going on a retreat? Do you have questions you need answered before you take the leap and sign up for your retreat? Eyia Retreats, a boutique travel and retreat company, is here to answer all of your Greek Retreat FAQs! Eyia Retreats hosts transformational retreats that can lead to deep nourishment, personal growth, and lasting memories.

What is the difference between a retreat and a vacation?

A retreat is a curated experience with a specific focus, planned activities, and a host to guide your time. On a vacation, you are responsible for creating your experience and booking activities. Eyia Retreats hosts wellness retreats which all have a focus on your whole wellbeing. You can expect activities like morning movement, yoga, time for reflection, journaling and meditation, time for connection with yourself, nature and the group, and even fun activities so you are nourished body, mind, heart, and soul.

Are flights included?

Your flight is usually not included in your booking, unless otherwise stated. Eyia Retreats is available to provide you with assistance to book the best flight for you.

How much are flights to Greece?

If you book early, you may be able to find great deals on your flight. Flight prices depend on your departure city and airline. We are available to support your booking! Please reach out to info@eyiaretreats.com.

Can you help me book my flights?

Of course! As travel professionals, we are available to support your booking/ we can guide you on the best options. Please reach out to info@eyiaretreats.com.

Can you help me book my pre and post retreat accommodation?

Yes! We highly encourage you to check out more of Greece while you’re here. As a boutique travel and retreat company, Eyia Retreats can book your accommodations before and after your retreat, as well as any tours and reservations you want.  Reach out to us here.

How many people are going to be on retreat?

Retreats are usually between 6-16 people, depending on the retreat. We like to keep our group sizes small so people can get to know others and you get that personal touch from a retreat.

Who are retreats for?

Retreats are open to anyone and everyone. Retreat space is a safe space. 

If I’m going alone, can I book a double room and be paired up with someone?

It depends on the bedding situation of your retreat accommodation. If the shared room has a shared bed, we recommend booking a single occupancy room or asking a friend or loved one to join you. If the shared room has separate beds, we can pair you with another retreater. If we are unable to fill your room, we will ask you to upgrade to a single occupancy room. Please reach out to us if you are looking for another retreat to share a room with.

What is the fitness and yoga level on retreat?

Fitness and yoga classes are open to all levels and flexibility. It is beginner friendly, but if you are a pro, you will still be challenged. We cater each class to our attendees needs.

Do I need to bring a yoga mat and props or any fitness equipment?

All yoga mats, props, and fitness equipment will be provided, unless otherwise stated. Of course, even if we provide them, you are more than welcome to bring your own mat, props and equipment if you prefer your own.

I’m nervous that I won’t know anyone.

Trust why you have been called to this retreat. It is okay to be nervous, but do it anyway! We will also have a private retreat WhatsApp Group so you have a chance to connect with everyone before the retreat. Additionally, we host a pre-retreat call so retreaters can meet each other before we meet in person.

If I have to cancel my trip, is any part of it refundable?

Deposit for any of our retreats in Greece is nonrefundable. If you cancel 90 days or more before your retreat start date, you will be refunded the full retreat amount (less non-refundable deposit). If you cancel between 66-89 days before your retreat start date, you will be refunded (less non-refundable deposit) only if we can fill your spot. If you cancel 65 days or less before your retreat start date, you will forfeit your entire payment.
