With open arms and beaming faces, Semperviva shared the history and beauty of Kythira with us through excursions and activities before letting us play on any of the many stunning beaches. It was the perfect place to renew and recharge a passion for life and language; culture and community – and sharing such joy with new friends was better than anything.

The yoga retreat in Greece has given us memories to last a lifetime. We expected the yoga to be fantastic, and it was. Thank you Gloria, for transforming our yoga experience through two wonderful outdoor sessions each day. What we didn't expect was the fascinations that awaited us on Kythira: the gorgeous beaches, with water a heartbreaking turquoise blue; the history – steeped surroundings – from Minoan tombs, to Byzantine churches and Venetian castles; and the warm, friendly, locals, who welcomed us like family.
Thank you Scott for your excellent guiding. You gave us the opportunity to really see and understand the island, and we are grateful for what we had the chance to experience.

Greece Awaits You
Your yoga retreat includes two daily yoga classes, group excursions to traditional villages, shops and historical sites, and lots of free time to soak up the Mediterranean sun and to swim at any of Kythira's spectacular beaches.
You'll be served a breakfast of local fresh fruit and coffee each morning before your yoga class, and we'll enjoy three group dinners together at the island's finest tavernas, accompanied by local musicians. Fall into the Greek rhythm of life! You will be staying in the small, picturesque fishing village of Avlemonas, located on the eastern side of the island. It is here that archaeologists have spent years searching for the Temple of Aphrodite, the goddess of love. Your accommodations are a family run, boutique hotel that looks out onto the sea.
Kythira has a rugged, simple beauty and tourism here is still quite undeveloped. Kythira is a calm refuge that takes pride in its traditional way of life, and boasts some of the most astonishingly beautiful beaches in all of Greece. Combining the power of yoga with the rugged beauty and passionate energy of the Greek Islands will transform you!
