The Luxury Villa

Imagine waking up to this…

Villa Akuna means 'Peace by the Water' and it truly embodies this. Located directly onto the Adriatic Sea, Villa Akuna has 5 suites containing high end Italian luxury furniture and fittings.

Our aim is to allow each retreat guest to not lift a finger the entire week, so once you arrive you will be welcomed with a cool drink as your bags are taken to your room.

Guests will be super comfortable in their oversized bedrooms with sea views and beautiful handcrafted bathrooms. During the week each guest has access to our concierge to ensure your stay is super comfortable. Take a break from everyday tasks and allow the in villa staff to tidy each morning.

Over the course of the week, enjoy the magnesium pool, reset in the infrared sauna and walk directly into the sea to refresh. If you are wanting more, workout in the gym or ride a bike around the local area.

Peace by the Water

You have the flexibility to choose between a private room or sharing with another retreat guest (Bonus: if you book with a friend, both of you will receive a discount).

Prepare to be mesmerized by the exquisite and luxurious villa, creating a serene and tranquil ambiance.

Laying by the adriatic sea with a fresh juice whilst reading your book is a must. All rooms are equipped with air conditioning and complimentary Wi-Fi.

While each room offers a similar experience, the allocation of the rooms will be based on the order of sign-ups. If you opt for a shared room, we will carefully pair you with a guest who we believe will be a perfect match for you.

The Radiance Facilitators

Meet Christine our Yoga Facilitator - owner of evolv.

‘Movement has been in my life for as long as I can remember. And for more than a decade Yoga has been my passion. My dream has always been to offer a fun, intelligent, even athletic practice to more people. A Yoga practice that is based in the ancient ways but curated to suit our modern life.

I offer a practice that takes you on a complete journey, by blending the traditional elements of pranayama and meditation with a contemporary asana practice, all backed by a bangin' playlist. I know with every fibre of my being that Yoga will improve the quality of your life and I’m excited to be sharing it with you on the retreat.’

Meet Olivia Our resident Reiki healer and clinical pilates instructor

‘My first love for movement came from skiing. That then began a huge love for the mountains and it has only continued to grow. I then came across pilates and it was a game changer for me. It was like skiing to me again without the huge expense or the clunkiness of putting all the gear on. It felt fluid and resonated with me completely. My passion for Pilates continued to grow and grow. At 19 I made the decision to go from client to student. I have spend the past four years studying the body and teaching Pilates. My goal is to teach movement in a way that isn’t scary, is approachable, inspiring and encouraging to EVERYBODY. I hope to show people the power in movement and the body awareness that comes with it. I have recently started to incorporate energetic therapies into the bodywork I deliver and I cannot wait to dive deeper into that realm and explore it with everyone who is open to receive it.’ 

Meet Jules our breathwork teacher and somatic energy healer

Former karate professional and second-generation climber, Jules embraced yoga at a really young age as a way of living that goes beyond the mat and she wishes to support and hold space for people in their journey of self-discovery. 

Mindfulness, compassion and no judgement are what Jules stand for. Controlling and experimenting with breath is a big part of Jules' practice and she loves guiding people through discovering how to use one of their biggest power.  Merging techniques that range from Kundalini, Katonah, Chinese Medicine, traditional yogic Pranayama and more...expect a practice that will take you deep to rise high. At times it might look a little crazy and weird, that's when you have the choice to hold back or trust the magic of your breath."
