Mountainside Yoga Retreat - Luxury Villa in Turkey

Nestled in a small Hamlet, next to the Taurus Mountains.  The setting is a tranquil and peaceful haven.  Situated off the beaten track looks down onto a lush green valley with sea views of Patara Beach.

Michelle’s retreats are designed with care and attention so individual needs are met. Each retreat is special and inspiring to ensure you return home feeling restored, rested and able to balance your own life more.

Facilities include:

Meditation Traditional Kosh - a large seated area with lots of carpeted cushions. Made from local trees with a bamboo roof for shade. A great place for meditation, siesta or time out to read.

Purpose built Yoga Shala with marble flooring, natural trees and a shaded bamboo roof. It is equipped with mats/blocks and traditional Turkish bolsters. It looks out to the Mountains and views down the valley.

  • Spacious secluded terraces with Hammocks / bean bags / wooden sunloungers
  • Games Room - table tennis, pool table, air hockey, cross trainer and more.
  • Spacious outdoor area with Bar / stools, BBQ / dining table

Traditional Turkish Food – Is an inspiring special part of the Retreat to help you feel nourished and nurtered  The food is all organically grown, home-made and provided by Emire, a local Turkish lady and her family.  The recipes are handed down through generations.  The food is mainly vegetarian but meat/fish can be provided, all very nutritional including vegetables, fruits, pulses, nuts, grains, cheese, salads, mezes, yogurts, a different home made cake every day.

Restaurants – In nearby Kalkan there are many places to eat out.  An evening wandering through cobbled streets and browsing the local craft shops/boutiques before choosing  one of the open air or roof top restaurants with views over turquoise sea can be a great experience.

In contrast there is a Traditional  local trout farm restaurant set in a Tradional style in the Mountains.  A welcome breath of fresh cool air in the Summer months.
