set in the heart of a secluded green valley and surrounded by the dramatic beauty of the Andalucian Mountains, we’re just 40 minutes away from Malaga airport, but a world away from the stresses of urban existence.
Valle de Vida’s Yoga and wellness retreat is designed to have minimal impact on our 18 acres of unspoilt land, in harmony with the natural beauty of Spain’s Pizarra Mountains. Hidden away in a valley, reached only by a 4km track that winds through the orange and lemon groves, we are surrounded by breathtaking views, vibrant flora and fauna, caves, mountain streams, springs and even a waterfall.

Options to stay in a variety of ways (allocation first booked gets first choice)
The main house, El Romero, is a beautifully restored traditional Andalucian finca
Two large teepees - experience of the mountains at night
ME-Pods (5.5m diameter 3.5m tall solid domed structures) - set in the heart of nature
Three Geodesic domes - mountainside location
The main house, El Romero, is a beautifully restored traditional Andalucian finca, with room for 13 guests. It has seven bedrooms, a large kitchen and lounge area.
For holiday guests who want the full Spanish sensory experience of the mountains at night, the two large teepees bring you closer to Cartama’s nature, as do the ME-Pods (5.5m diameter 3.5m tall solid domed structures) and the three Geodesic domes.
The teepees and ME-Pods are clean, spacious and very comfortable, with tiled floors, electricity and beautiful bedding, perfect for those with an affinity for the outdoors, but who don’t wish to compromise on comfort. Each is connected with paths winding amongst the almond and olive groves, picked out with solar lights. They all have beautiful views across the valley, the stars glittering, a Spanish night breeze whispering through the trees, the sounds of crickets and cicadas lulling you to sleep.

During your retreat there are various options available for treatments. These can include Massage, Reflexology, Osteopathy and Reiki.

“Taking myself on retreat for the first time, travelling solo for the first time and meeting so many new people was a bit daunting to be honest, BUT everything was organised beautifully, everyone I met was welcoming and fun to be with; and Pip & Ali created such a warm, friendly environment I felt truly nurtured and held’”

Food
A vital part of any retreat is to have nourishing, fresh food
Offering three delicious meals a day (included in the price) from a varied menu including meat, fish and veggie options. (please let us know special dietary requirements in advance for vegetarian/vegan/food intolerances)
This is a health promoting retreat and that is reflected in the fresh food, but we realise health isn’t just about ‘regime’, wellbeing comes when we remove stress so we adopt a casual and relaxed vibe to food and drink- both alcoholic and soft drinks are available with evening meals.
“ the food was amazing - everything was fresh and beautifully presented, I was expecting to be a bit hungry, it being a yoga retreat ‘n' all, but nothing was further from the truth, there was plenty to eat and it was all sooo tasty”
Home-grown figs, Spanish frittata and beetroot salad
