Additionally, there's an awe-inspiring island hike that grants you breathtaking views and a chance to revel in the island's natural beauty. We're also able to arrange additional adventures and activities; please refer to 'Additional Adventures' for more information.
Choosing a fitness class for you
Each day has a range of Fitness classes to choose from. You can pick and choose what you would like to do. You could start the day with an incredible Yoga session, and later on try one of our BoxFit classes or TRX classes, concluding the day with a sunset Pilates class. The schedule will be published at the beginning of the week and you will be able to make your own schedule. Each day you will find something different, so you will be sure to have variety and no room for boredom. Do not worry if you have never tried the class before as we have expert and experienced instructors to show you the way.
Guided Hike on the beautiful island of Kos
Embarking on a picturesque hike through the enchanting landscapes of Kos Island, you'll follow a remarkable natural path. Along the journey, you'll encounter breathtaking views that are worth capturing on camera. On a crystal-clear day, the panoramic vista may extend to encompass the neighbouring islands of Pserimos, Kalymnos, and Plati, as well as a glimpse of Turkey. The hike spans approximately four hours in total, offering challenges at some points but remaining well within reach for most. On your way back, you'll have the opportunity to explore a charming local village.
Guided Bike Ride to Pandrosia Aloe Vera Farms

Set on one of Kos island's amazing sandy beaches
We are located at Seaside Apartments on Tigaki Beach. The Studios are set in a Nature Park, home to flamingos and other wildlife, we are also directly on one of Kos's most incredibly sandy beaches, the perfect setting to wind down. Each studio of 2* standard and is very spacious, comfortably sleeping up to 3 people. Each has its own balcony, ensuite and kitchenette and is kept very clean with fresh linen and towels. The balconies have an amazing view of the sea, there is literally no better place to chill on an evening. The owners of the studios are incredibly friendly and also own two restaurants within the same complex. We will be sitting down for breakfast each morning in one of the restaurants. They both serve delicious traditional Greek food.
The most luxurious villas on Kos Island
We are located at the luxurious TAF Boutique Villas, which is on the outskirts of the wonderful village of Tigaki. Tigaki is famous for its long golden sandy beach. There are 3 villas on-site, each having a swimming pool. As part of the retreat, we occupy Villas Theodoros and Alexandros. Each Villa has a Master Suite with an ensuite and two double bedrooms. The complex is all about outdoor luxury living. On-site we have a top-of-the-range outdoor gym, an outdoor cinema and an outdoor bar which will be where we will dine in style.
Breakfast is included
Both Retreat options, include a delicious nutritious breakfast with locally produced/sourced ingredients to set you up for the day's activities.
We also include a meal on arrival as we know travelling can be quite tiring.
On Sunday we will get together for either a BBQ or a restaurant meal (location dependent)
And, on Friday we will head to Kos Town for an amazing meal in one of the local restaurants.
Lunches and evening meals are not provided as too many amazing local restaurants surround us, we would like to encourage you to absorb the Greek culture and delicious food.
Kos is one of the most loved islands of the Dodecanese
Island is known as “The island of Hippocrates” for having given birth to the most famous doctor in history.
Kos is 43 km long and 2 km wide at the narrowest point, up to a maximum of 6 km at its largest point. It is the third island of the Dodecanese for size and the second for the population. Its close proximity to the coasts of Turkey and more precisely to the ancient city of Halicarnassus, now known as Bodrum, makes it particularly fascinating as it offers an interesting combination of eastern and western elements. Even though Kos is known for its tourism, it has done well in maintaining its soul. Escaping from the tourists is easily done, and you will always manage to find a hidden beach.
Mediterranean Weather
From April to November, a period during which the rains are very rare, the island offers a Mediterranean climate of excellence that gives the possibility to fully enjoy the sea and many sunny days.
At the same time, there is a summer wind present that allows even the high temperatures to feel much more comfortable, enabling everyone to stay fairly active through the hotter months. There is a small chance of rain in the months of September and October, but this usually disperses within a few hours.
The retreat is not suitable for those unable to cycle or hike or engage in physical activities, however, provisions can be made for some disabilities, contact us directly to discuss whether we can accommodate you sufficiently.
We support an eco-friendly environment, one being your primary mode of transport for the week is either bicycle or foot. We also encourage recycling and a minimal plastic approach. We fully discourage the use of single-use plastic, and your host will be talking a lot about her journey with natural products and giving you the local knowledge on where to find the best natural products on the island including skin care and foods, you may even find a little natural gift in your welcome pack.
