COME AWAY WITH US, AND COME HOME TO YOURSELF
Join Jen Wendowski and Ali Hubsher for one unforgettable week along the remote coastline of Arvi Beach.
Imagine waking up to the sound of the Mediterranean, stepping outside your private beachfront villa, and starting your morning with yoga overlooking the sea. Your days will be filled with delicious meals prepared by our private chef, unforgettable adventures, time to slow down, and plenty of moments to simply soak it all in.
We’ll experience the beauty and culture of Crete together, from hiking through a breathtaking gorge to cruising the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean, with plenty of time in between to relax, explore, and enjoy life by the sea.
At Yoga Habit, our retreats are more than a vacation. They’re an invitation to step away from everyday life and reconnect with yourself, with others, and with the world around you through movement, exploration, and community.
Come with a friend or partner, or join us solo. All are welcome!
“This retreat was exactly what I needed to reset and recenter—a perfect amount of relaxation, adventure, and fun.”
— Jackie, Panama Retreat
One of the best parts of booking a yoga retreat?
YOU DON’T HAVE TO PLAN A THING.
We’ve taken care of the details so you can actually enjoy your vacation. Book your flight, pack your bags, and show up. We’ll take it from there.
-
We are so excited to bring our next adventure to the southern coast of Crete, Greece’s largest and most captivating island, where rugged mountains, charming villages and the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean come together.
A scenic 15-minute walk along the beach brings you to the picturesque seaside village of Arvi, where you’ll find a few cafés and a glimpse into everyday Cretan life. Small and authentic, Arvi offers a laid-back coastal atmosphere where you can wander, enjoy a bite by the sea and experience Crete beyond the typical tourist spots.
-
Beach House Arvi is home to 12 beautiful rooms, each offering a comfortable and peaceful retreat with a private ensuite bathroom.
The villa offers beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces to gather, cozy nooks to curl up with a good book, a heated pool, a tennis court, and sweeping views of the Mediterranean Sea with a private beach.
Grab one of the villa’s kayaks or paddle boards and head out onto the crystal-clear waters for a little adventure, all without ever leaving home! -
Private transportation will be provided between Heraklion Airport (HER) and our villa on our designated arrival and departure days.
Because flight schedules are still being finalized, we are monitoring the most up-to-date flight times and will provide more specific guidance on recommended arrival and departure windows by mid-fall.
If you would like to be included in our private group transportation, please check in with us before booking your flights to ensure your travel schedule aligns with the group transfers.
-
Beach House Arvi’s private chef will prepare fresh, delicious Cretan meals throughout the week, highlighting the incredible ingredients of the region in the villa’s state-of-the-art kitchen. From fresh seafood to locally grown produce, our meals will celebrate the flavors and traditions of Greece.
The villa is BYOB. There are wine shops in the nearby town of Arvi for easy access to local wines and other beverages.
-
Each morning will start with a Yoga Habit style Power Flow taught by Jen or Ali on the villa’s partially shaded pool deck overlooking the ocean! We will have two guided group meditations throughout the week as well.
No need to bring your own mat unless you prefer to! Beach House Arvi comes stocked with mats.
-
While there will be plenty of time to relax and recharge, our week in Crete will also include opportunities for adventure and exploration.
We will hike and river trek through the Sarakina Gorge's dramatic cliffs, riverbeds, pools and waterfalls. Enjoy a post-hike seaside swim, lunch and time to explore the nearby town of Myrtos.
We’ll set sail for a day in the crystal-clear turquoise waters surrounding Chrissi Island! Enjoy swimming and snorkeling stops, relax near the island’s stunning beaches, and take in the incredible views. With snacks and drinks on board, we’ll soak up the sun and celebrate our unforgettable week together!
We’ll also have plenty of time to wander into Arvi, just a scenic 15-minute walk down the beach from our villa. Arvi’s charming downtown will give you taste of everyday Cretan life.Optional a la carte excursions, including wine and olive oil tastings, additional hikes, and more local adventures, will also be available for those who want to explore even more of Crete.
-
Throughout the week, a team of wellness and beauty professionals will be onsite at the villa. Treat yourself to a little extra relaxation with facials, body scrubs, body masks, and massages available right at Beach House Arvi.
We encourage balance on our retreats and want guests to leave feeling restored.
