Serenity in Sardina was truly the trip of a lifetime! I cannot say enough wonderful things about the entire experience! Nikki from Curated Yoga Retreats did an amazing job planning the week, from yoga to accommodations, to excursions. Nikki and Stefanie curated such a harmonious group of people to be on this journey together! Bravo! And the venue, Villa la Belle Etoile was simply beautiful. The family style service was so comforting. The grounds are beautiful with so many little hidden grottos to relax in, the service was impeccable, and I felt like everyone was my friend by the end of the week. We did paddle boarding, pizza making, boating, swimming, horseback riding, and an excursion into the city to name a few! All that coupled with the real reason we were there, Stephanie Phelan's outstanding yoga practice twice a day! I feel so rejuvenated and grateful that I went and met so many beautiful new friends!

Everything about the experience was top notch. Katina Griffin is a fantastic teacher with a lot of heart. The Oliveto villas are beautiful - like a 5 star resort, views like a painting, fantastic chef, and 2 lovely pools in warmer weather. The bedroom and bathrooms are very comfortable and modern. Fun day trips also...

So well planned! Excellent accommodations, incredible food, thoughtful excursions with plenty of downtime, and I learned so much with consistent and energizing instruction :)

Awesome yoga instruction. Terrific group.

This yogic journey with Dave Larot was indeed a magical one! He did it again...his yoga practice and philosophy discussions are always calming, relaxing and grounding experiences, especially situated in the mountainous and scenic place in Greece. Thank you Dave! Thank you Nikki for organizing this trip including the well-thought out and fun excursions. The accommodation was beautiful and could have been excellent if the staff were easily available to respond to some issues. The yoga room's ventilation and cooling system could have been improved. The food was delish, healthy, fresh and prepared with love. My massage experience was not great this time. I suggest to ensure getting an experienced and seasoned massage therapist for these kinds of trips. Nonetheless, overall, I'm happy and grateful for this experience including the energy and friendships of each yogi. See you next time!
