bedroom Etruscan Style Villa, each room with marble en-suite bathroom. The 16m outside play pool is specifically designed
for guests to enjoy volleyball or badminton. There are front and back terraces and garden areas, a therapy room, an office

dining or relaxing. This quiet, well appointed property, has a permanent staff of 10 who work together to ensure that your

Yoga: Twice daily group yoga classes are held on the outside covered terrace. The morning class is dynamic and the evening
is relaxed. We provide group classes which are optional and our primary focus is understanding your own personal yoga and
how to approach 'your' practice for personal balance as we do not believe that one size fits all. The one to one classes are
a great way to really get to understand your body and progress intensively while under supervision as either a beginner or
an advanced practitioner. The combination with yoga therapy is also highly effective for disease prevention and
rehabilitation.
Therapies: Guests enjoy either a daily therapy or a one to one yoga lesson each day. The following choices of therapy are
available: Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs, Ayurvedic consultation and massage (Abhyanga and Marma), Bowen therapy, Holsitic
massage, Hydrotherapy, Craniosacral therapy, Naturopathy, Nutrition, Osteopathy, Reflexology, Thai massage and Yoga therapy.
