“Second year coming to Gilly’s retreats but the first time I treated myself to the luxury villa retreat.  It won’t be the last.  I loved every minute.  The villas are gorgeous and the layout of the resort superb.  It really did feel like a special place where care has been taken with the surroundings.  Loved all the activities – including the brilliant classes headed by Anna who is exceptionally knowledgeable and I even had one or two personal bests!  The hike and bike ride were exhilarating – challenging but that is the point!  The outside gym has pretty much everything you need for a great active holiday and the yoga, stretch sessions and pilates were welcome changes of pace.  I can’t wait for next year.  Gilly’s retreats are the perfect balance between active and chill – you’ll feel both invigorated and rested.  Highly recommended.  And we weren’t all about being abstemious either!  Plenty of wine was consumed and great conversation had.  I was travelling alone and but this would suit solo travellers or couples / friends."
