Your Journey
Radiance encompasses the essence of joy, beauty, and robust health. It extends beyond mere physical appearance, emanating from the depths of our souls. In a world filled with perpetual stress, pressure, toxins, and pollutants, it’s no wonder that our radiance and beauty can become dimmed. Together, we will embark on a journey to rediscover balance and unlock your natural beauty, resilience, and connection.
Who is this retreat for?
This retreat welcomes anyone seeking to enhance their overall well-being and unlock their innate radiance through a holistic toolkit that can be incorporated into their daily lives.
Our Approach
Each day, we will begin with Yoga Sadhana, a practice that harmonizes your body, mind, and breath. Through this practice, you will cultivate awareness of your chakras, the energy centers within, as well as the associated glands and organs. Additionally, you will explore the thoughts and emotions connected to each energy center. These sessions will integrate specialized practices that promote hormonal balance and cultivate a sense of serenity and bliss.
The daily deep-dive sessions will encompass advanced healing meditations and a variety of holistic self-healing techniques that revitalize and rejuvenate your entire being.
As the week concludes, we will engage in an interactive Organic Spa Workshop, where you will learn to craft delightful “home spa” experiences using common ingredients found in your kitchen and garden. This hands-on workshop will be a shared endeavor, fostering a sense of connection and well-being among participants.
Throughout the retreat, you will have the opportunity to unwind and recharge through daily outings designed to promote relaxation and rejuvenation. Optional spa treatments and visits to a natural cosmetics boutique will also be available. For those interested, a natural cosmetics workshop can be arranged for the group on an individual basis (minimum 4 persons).

Location
Suncokret Body and Soul Retreat is situated on the serene Hvar Island, specifically located in Dol Sveta Ana, a pristine 12th Century hamlet that is just a 5-minute drive away from Stari Grad, the island’s oldest settlement. Tucked away from the bustling holiday crowds, Dol is an ancient settlement with roots dating back to prehistoric times, evoking a profound connection to a simpler and more wholesome way of life. It is the cherished homeland of your co-host, Stipe, and his family.
Reminiscent of the picturesque landscapes of Provence and Tuscany, Dol is nestled amidst lush greenery, adorned with lavender fields, olive groves, vineyards, and pine forests. The surrounding beauty is perfectly framed by the distant horizon of the blue sea and sky. A retreat at Suncokret in Dol Sveta Ana provides an idyllic escape from the routines of everyday life, offering a true organic oasis for the soul.
The retreat center is situated on a secluded hilltop, preserving the tranquility of Dol Sveta Ana, which remains unpopulated for most of the year. Within the village, you will find two restaurants and a cafe, fostering a sense of community and providing culinary delights. While there are no ATM machines, banks, or shops, this absence only enhances the peaceful atmosphere, allowing you to disconnect from the stresses of modern-day life and fully immerse yourself in the retreat experience.
Stari Grad, located a mere 2 kilometers from the retreat, can be easily reached on foot, offering the opportunity for leisurely walks and exploration. However, to ensure a seamless and enriching experience for retreat guests, Suncokret Dream organizes conceptualized daily outings, taking you to the finest destinations and spots that the island has to offer. Sit back, relax, and allow them to guide you to the hidden gems and breathtaking locations, as you revel in the beauty and tranquility of Hvar Island.
