Yoga in Andalusia—A Retreat for Clarity, Openness of Heart, and Radiance (Covered by Health Insurance)

Villa el Morisco is idyllically situated on a hill in the Andalusian countryside of the Costa del Sol. Mango and orange trees grow all around. The villa features 7 double rooms (which can also be used as single rooms), a beautiful garden, and an infinity pool. The sauna features a glass front with a view of the sea. The villa is located about 1 kilometer from the sea, a roughly 20-minute walk. Feel free to check out the website, where you’ll find many photos of the beautiful surroundings. Single room: €970 per person, depending on size, including meals; Double room: €795 per person, including full board

There are three meals a day, but you can help yourself to the buffet all day long. There are salads, fresh foods, and everything your heart desires. In the evening, wine and beer are included. You can also make tea and coffee throughout the day.

We will have our meals at the finca. The El Morisco estate has three levels. On the first level is the Casa, above that is the finca, and at the very top, perched on a hill, is the villa. We can use all of these spaces as we please.

The airport near Villa el Morisco is Málaga, where several flights arrive daily from every major city in Germany. A free shuttle will pick you up at the airport if you arrive between 9 a.m. and 8 p.m. If you arrive outside these hours, a surcharge will apply. There is also a bus that runs from the airport to the villa, but you’ll need to walk about 800 meters up the hill from the Benajarafe stop. For more information, visit the Casa el Morisco website.
