Most interesting yoga curriculum and inspired english speaking teachers, specialised in yoga and further esoteric practices/work. Based at a superb traditional and very attractive mansion house in which take place all Yoga-On-Crete activities. Few very comfortabe and clean accomodation and lodging facilities are available in-house to the lucky ones booking early (highly recommended). The Yoga House's big court offers a gorgeous view over the picturesque village of Sfakia lying underneath its balkony. Very convenient and well-equipped in-house yoga practice (open air/partially covered) facilities are found at the back court. Sophisticated local raw materials, fresh vegetable and fruit directly from the producers serve as basis of a very inspired and creative high quality vegetarian cuisine offered daily in-house. Rich breakfast with the best variety of natural ingredients in a cosy atmosphere after the morning yoga course is a must. I could have spent the whole week in-house if it were not for visiting the nearby Sfakia and swimming in the crystal clear waters of its beaches. The Warm Hospitality offered by the happy -polyglot- owners' couple (Eugenia and Nick) who are always present and eager to help, the Seriousness and High Quality yoga courses offered in a Friendly and uncomplicated atmosphere appeal to guests from all over the world and make the whole package so attractive that it is difficult to resist coming back each...
Read morePros This was my first yoga retreat experience and what an absolute blessing it was! From the time of signing up for it Eugenia was in touch with me giving valuable information on how to arrive in Chora Sfakion. Hotel information. Foot paths to arrive at the yoga house. Everything was well organised and so kindly informed. The yoga experience was absolutely amazing! Constantinos, our instructor really paid so much attention to the needs of the class and took us through a series of stretches and bends and balances all the while giving us so much information about what they do to our bodies and how important they are to our bodies. We all felt change. We all felt there was so much space created within our bodies. We all felt well educated about how Iyengar yoga works to heal our ailments within our bodies. Constantinos is passionate about educating his students about what he has learned and was always willing to help. He is dead funny, too. Which made the experience even better. The group I was with truly cared for each other. We looked after and took care of each other and made lifelong friendships. All in all it is an unforgettable experience for me. Thank you so much Eugenia, Maria and Nikos for...

As always all was warmly hosted by Eugenia and Nikos and their team in an atmosphere of kindness and welcoming . Francis...
