5 Nights of Deep Rest, Cycladic Tradition and Aegean Serenity
7th - 12th June 2026
UNPLUG, RECALIBRATE & EMBRACE SLOW LIVING
Join us for a restorative 5-night escape to the untouched Cycladic island of Kea, Greece. Nāos means "temple" in ancient Greek and this retreat is a pilgrimage to your inner sanctuary.
Our focus is deeply rooted in rest, relaxation, tradition and escaping the relentless noise of the busy world.
Accomodation
At our exquisite villa perched above the Aegean Sea, you will step into a secluded haven dedicated to the art of slowing down.
Dine
Indulge in a culinary journey curated exclusively for you by our talented Chef. A true artisan of local Greek ingredients, mediterranean-inspired menus for your delight. From vibrant post-yoga brunch spreads to exquisite private dinners, every seasonal dish is a masterpiece designed for deep nourishment.
Yoga
You will practice in the dedicated, sea-view Wellness Shala, sink into deep rest by the 18-meter infinity pool. This is your time to simply be, guided by the rhythms of the sun and the flow of your breath.
Yoga In The Sun
A DAY IN THE LIFE OF
"THE SLOW LIVING RETREAT"
MORNING
AFTERNOON
The afternoons are intentionally left free for true relaxation: sink into a book by the 18-meter infinity pool or take a slow, contemplative walk to one of the crystal-clear nearby beaches or perhaps choose an enriching experience, like a panoramic hike to the ancient ruins of Karthea culminating in a special beach picnic.
EVENING
As the sun begins its descent, we'll meet for cooling Yin Yoga session incorporating deeply meditative Yoga Nidra and other deep rest practices to soothe the body and mind, followed by an exquisite three-course, chef-prepared Dinner on the pergola terrace, completing your circle of rest and nourishment.
Begin your day by grabbing your pre-practice superfood smoothie or fresh juice before heading to the sea-view Shala or an outdoor terrace.
Here, you will roll out your mat for a grounding flow & yin practice, setting a vibrant, yet peaceful, intention for the day ahead.
Afterwards, gather for a hearty, traditional Brunch, featuring colourful, fresh and beautifully presented local Cycladic delights that are both seasonal and highly nutritious
Escaping the busy world is easier than you might imagine, as Kea is wonderfully close to Athens yet remains genuinely untouched
