Details

This retreat is designed for people who love to move, explore, and experience a place properly. To immerse themselves into Croatian culture and the way of life. Hosted on the beautiful island of Rab, Croatia, you’ll stay in luxury beachfront villas with swimming pools, sea access, and space to train, relax, and spend time together. Each morning starts with a beachfront or poolside workout, led by the hosts — a mix of bodyweight training, mobility, and stretching. These sessions are energising, accessible, and designed to make you feel good for the day ahead, not exhausted. From there, every day brings a different adventure: Coastal walks and island hikes Swimming at different beaches and coves Viewpoints overlooking the Adriatic Exploring Rab Old Town Paddle boarding, pool games, and sea dips One highlight of the week is a full boat day, where we explore hidden beaches, underwater caves, and nearby islands — including a stop at a former prison island. It’s a day of swimming, exploration, sun, and proper adventure. Food is a big part of the experience. Breakfast is provided every morning, and dinner is included each evening — a mix of: Authentic Croatian and Balkan grill nights (čevapi, pljeskavica, local meats) Mediterranean seafood prepared fresh, including whole fish Local restaurants with healthy, nutritious options Croatian wine, beer, and rakija for those who enjoy it This is not a party retreat, and it’s not a silent wellness retreat either. It’s social, active, relaxed, and grounded — built around shared experiences, good food, movement, and time outdoors. Group size is intentionally kept small to ensure a personal, high-quality experience.
