EXCELLENTBased on 50 reviewslourdes rivera2024-08-28A vacation in a beautiful Greek island, we met new friends, enjoyed Mediterranean food and practiced Yoga at the same time . Seven amazing days .Corinne Santos2024-07-17All I can say is world class service! I would HIGHLY recommend Kat to any friends and family (in fact I have already shared her contact information with many people). Every step of the planning process was smooth, professional and very personalized. Our family (myself, husband, 9 year old son and 12 year old daughter) have been talking about Greece for awhile and typically I do all of the planning myself for our European trips however when it came to Greece I quickly realized I needed an expert. During our intake call I knew right away that I was going to enjoy and trust Kat’s opinion. She was very thorough and detailed oriented and provided us with one of the best trips we have ever been on. Not only did she help with the planning but she was fully accessible during our trip when we had to make changes to our ferry or tweak timing of private tours. THANK YOU for providing such amazing service and allowing us to enjoy our vacation stress free.Ana Patricia Munoz Polo2024-07-12Un hermosísimo viaje perfectamente organizado , el hotel increíble y solo para nosotras, la atención de el dueño totalmente personal con cada una. Los paseos, las comidas, todo muy bien planeado, las clases lindisimas, aunque me hubiera gustado tener más yoga y no solo por que Teresa sea mi amiga sino porq soy nueva en el asunto. La convivencia entre todas genial, fue no solo un viaje hermoso sino que hice nuevas amistades. Solo me queda agradecer por este sueño cumplido y mega experiencia a Eyia y sus maestras y a mis compañeras de viaje Gracias Gracias Gracias 🙏🏻Laurel Perkins2024-07-01This experience was the best retreat I have ever been on. Kat’s knowledge of Greece, the traditions, the food & restaurants, was all top notch. Teresa Gonzalez led the yoga and Jollene Berghoff led the dancing and all of it together was magical. This retreat has helped me to redirect my life. Thank you!!Thalia Falcon2024-06-27The Ignite Your Inner Goddess retreat was the best thing I’ve done to invest in myself and my future. I went into the retreat feeling doubtful, insecure, and living in fear of what was next for me. The lessons I learned from not only Kat & Keegan, but also the amazing other women attending the retreat, are priceless. Greece gave me a newfound appreciation for the simple things in life that I’ll carry with me for years to come. I’ve grown so much in the short span of the retreat and I’m finally able to say I’m proud of who I’m becoming. The retreat couldn’t have been planned better, no rushing involved. I felt relaxed the entire time, even during the scheduled activities. I highly recommend this retreat to anyone feeling stuck, ready to evolve, and wanting fall back in love with themselves again.Kathleen Reid2024-06-22This trip far exceeded my expectations thanks to the careful planning by Katrina Paraskevopoulos (Kat). I loved every minute of my first visit to this beautiful country from touring the Acropolis, dining at a rooftop restaurant with a spectacular view of the city, enjoying delicious food, shopping in Paros, spending time with our fun group in the beautiful villa and swimming in the Aegean. Highly recommend. Can't wait to visit Greece again! xoxoAnne McElroy2024-06-22We have just returned from an amazing trip to Greece that was carefully organized and customized for us by Kat. We were a group of 7 woman who travelled for 8 days, with 2 nights in Athens staying in a lovely hotel in the Plaka area and 5 nights on the island of Paros in twin villas. From beginning to end, the trip went smoothly and the few small issues we had were quickly resolved by Kat. The trip was well paced with interesting experiences, along with enough down time for relaxation. I would highly recommend using Eyia Retreats and Kat for planning a vacation getaway. Thank you, Kat, for such a special introduction to Greece and its fabulous food, gracious people and fascinating culture!ctennyson52024-06-11Katrina is superb in her knowledge and know-how to run a retreat in Greece! She is on top of everything so you don't have to worry about anything! She is gracious and easy to work with. She is professional and responsive and made us feel so comfortable.Louise Barry2024-05-31Kat’s Favourites Tour was a fantastic experience! We took the trip in May 2024. Kat is a great travel guide and so knowledgeable on Greek culture and the islands. The favourites tour is exactly that, all of her favourite spots in Athens, Milos, Paros and Santorini. Highlights: - Acropolis tour in Athens. - Sailing day on Milos exploring the caves and crystal clear waters. - Cooking class with the wonderful Stella in Paros - Exploring the ancient city of Akrotiri in Santorini Kat selected wonderful accommodation throughout the trip that was unique to each island. We also felt like it was a culinary tour as we explored all of the different cuisine types that Greece has to offer, full of great local recommendations from Kat. And finally there was a strong wellness aspect with morning yoga and meditations which really grounded you throughout the trip. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to explore Greece and be immersed into local culture. A trip we will never forget!Holly Petersen2024-05-29Fantastic trip! Thank you Katarina for an incredible trip filled with unforgettable memories. Your knowledge of the various areas we adventured to, your enthusiasm, and your friendship made it all the more special. Very well planned out trip. I highly recommend booking your next trip through Eria Retreats…it was a great adventure!

This retreat was just what I needed! I hope to do this again!
The Art of Living Well!!! was amazing! Kat made everything easy and smooth. In addition to the retreat I requested transportation on arrival, an additional night prior to the retreat and at the end of the retreat which was arranged. I enjoyed the activities from sight seeing, to an olive oil tasting, wine tasting, cooking class, and art, with enough down time to relax or shop on your own. We (some of us) started each day with a light stretching/yoga session. The accommodations were luxurious with out being over the top, the food was delicious and a little too plentiful! This retreat was just what I needed! I hope to do this again!

I met Kat randomly through Instagram & she is 100% real and kind! She made the booking process easy, and responded quickly to all my questions prior to the trip. The Greece retreat was my first solo trip, and it exceeded my expectations! Morning meditation & workouts on the beach, and yoga with an ocean view was breathtaking.. literally while running on the beach! Kat & Fran were great at instructing each class with modifications or ways to challenge yourself. There was nothing but positive vibes the whole week with an amazing group of girls! It truly was a no judgement zone as I did whatever I wanted, when I wanted! Being a working mom and wife back home I was the most relaxed I’ve ever been during this retreat in Milos, Greece. I am forever grateful for this experience, and can’t wait for another #KatHealthFitness Wellness Retreat!
I found the whole retreat experience meaningful. It is difficult to say which particular experience had the most impact, as they all intertwined. Over the course of the week, the activities brought to light areas that I need to focus on in my life. I am full of gratitude that I had the opportunity to attend the retreat in Páros with wonderful women who are now new friends of mine! I needed the time to focus on myself, which will only strengthen my relationships with my family, friends and others.

Katrina’s Milos Retreat was an epic reboot to my fitness and state of mind.
The challenging daily workouts were well balanced with calming/relaxing yoga sessions that helped close the days. The hotel location was a perfect perch above rocks and an ocean of inspiration. Having been to Greece before, I was surprised by the natural beauty of the island. Its unique beaches served not only as fun places to spend the day, but also as places to be mesmerized by the beauty of nature. I enjoyed each day whether I was swimming in crystal blue water, exploring the local town shops and history, or partaking in an art class. And, of course, the amazing Greek food did not disappoint! Following a difficult year, I left the retreat feeling recharged and I’m excited to end the year focusing on being healthy. Thanks for the awesome experience!

I am forever grateful that I decided to go on the Fit Body & Mind Retreat in 2021. Greece and the retreat exceeded my expections. Kat was helpful in planning travel logistics both related to the retreat but also travel I planned prior to the week in Milos. The workouts and yoga practices were creative and differed each day. Each day there was a journal prompt that tied back to the theme of the retreat. Being at the Milos Breeze was the perfect environment for the retreat. The staff was very accommodating and the meal each morning was delicious. We had a handful of selections to eat and all the food was brought to us pool side. LUXRY. Kat planned two tasty group meals from a local restaurant where we got a farm to table experience. These group dinners elevated the experience since we got to try different Greek cuisine that we might not have had if it wasn't for Kat. Each meal allowed us to get closer to our fellow retreaters. My favorite day was our Kleftiko boat day adventure where we got to sail to an uninhibited part of the island that was truly breathtaking. For all that we got the experience on the retreat this experience is an excellent value and one that I will never forgot

Katrina did a fantastic job organizing a retreat that equally focused on mind and body renewal through daily workouts, in depth journal prompts, meditation and yoga.
It felt great to start each day in beautiful Milos with meditation and physical activity and end each day with sunset yoga – practices that I once thought were very difficult to incorporate into my daily routine and now am excited to bring home with me! This retreat taught me more than I thought possible in just a short week, I cant wait for the next one!

I’ve been on the Eyia Retreats in Milos, Greece twice now because I love it so much! This last year I brought my mom and it was such an amazing experience. Not only do you spend time reflecting on yourself, your goals and your health, you meet so many amazing people that you remember forever. I left feeling refreshed and motivated to come back home and take control of my life again. Kat is an amazing retreat leader and so detail oriented. Although it’s a health retreat, it’s not restrictive and it’s so so fun! Would recommended to anyone and everyone!

I have only positive things to say about Eyia Retreats Company and I am forever thankful that all the stars aligned for me to go on the 2021 Fit Body & Mind Retreat. Not only did I meet amazing people, see breathtaking sights (like Kleftiko and Sarakiniko), drink delicious coffee, and try some of the best meals, but got to disconnect from the day-to-day and really focus on myself. This trip was filled with blissful moments, mindful journal prompts, deep meditation sessions, and healthy movement. Thank you for leading us through daily workout classes, meditation, and yoga. You both put a lot of thought into each class and provided alternatives to fit everyone’s level of comfortability. The host, Kat, was extremely helpful before and during the retreat. She was always available to answer any travel questions, provided amazing guidance, and recommended places to stay if we were arriving early or staying longer. During the retreat, she constantly checked in on everyone, led with kindness, and put so much thought and detail into every activity/event.
Thank you EYIA RETREATS for an unforgettable experience!

I am truly blessed to have been able to attend Katrina’s 2019 Wellness Retreat on Milos: A week of fun, friendship and fitness, held at a beautiful location in Greece.
Katrina absolutely went out of her way to make sure everything was perfect. She handled the reservations for our hotel, greeted everyone with individual swag bags, and even walked down to Pollonia very early one morning to select the perfect freshly caught fish for our group dinner. We each experienced an incredible in-room massage, too! Each morning began with meditation held either pool-side or at the beach, followed by fitness workouts. At the end of each day we enjoyed relaxing yoga. Both the fitness and yoga routines were geared for all levels (flailing beginner to standing on your head advanced). And there was plenty of time to relax, read, lay by the pool, or explore the island each day. Efcharistó, Katrina, for the opportunity of a lifetime!
— Ronnie
Being my first ever wellness retreat, I didn’t know what to expect, but from the moment I arrived, it was amazing!
The location, the food, the people were all great and Katrina made everyone feel so comfortable. I came in wanting time to learn to relax and I can honestly say, with the help of meditation, yoga, and workouts, I have never had such a relaxing, rejuvenating week in my life. Can’t wait to go again!
