Stunning villa offering breathtaking sea views
This spacious villa tucked into the breathtaking mountains of Torrox, is designed for ultimate balance and tranquility. Inside, natural light fills the five bedrooms and two shared bathrooms, creating an inviting atmosphere that complements the villa’s open layout. The outdoor area is the true gem, featuring a large private pool with a jacuzzi and a welcoming garden—perfect for soaking up the Southern Spain sunshine.
Multiple terraces offer cozy nooks for morning yoga sessions and picturesque spots to watch the stunning sunsets. Get ready for my mother’s workshop, The Paella Mastery where you’ll learn to prepare this classic dish in a beautiful setting.
Just a 4-kilometer walk from the beach perfect for a peaceful walk to the coast, where the gentle rhythm of the waves enhances your relaxation and sense of presence.

Yoga & Activities
This retreat is kept intentionally for a small group to provide you with the care and attention you deserve. Our group will have a maximum of 10 people, including myself and my mother.
With a focus on growth beyond the mat, my teaching approach helps students uncover their own purpose in practice.
