Accommodation

The Cricket house is located only a 20-minute boat ride from Hvar island. There are no cars on the Pakleni islands, and the villa has no neighbors. It consists of a large living room, kitchen, spacious dining room, four bedrooms, and five bathrooms.

Two bedrooms are situated on the ground floor with double beds and ensuite bathrooms. On the upper floor are a triple room and a twin room, also with ensuite bathrooms.

Surrounding the house is a spacious Mediterranean garden with authentic herbs, figs, and olive trees. The wild flora garden is equipped with hammocks and deck chairs, making it the ideal place to enjoy nature and silence. A private beach is just a five-minute walk away.

Fige Yoga also offers the option of staying in the tent and using the bathroom from the house. If you are interested, let them know so they can provide a tent and all equipment for you.

Program

Activities

This meditation and yoga retreat on Pakleni Islands includes shakti mantra meditation, an ancient Vedic ceremony wherein you will receive your own personal mantra, meditation workshops and lectures, daily yoga, pranayama, and meditation practices by the sea, a healing mud experience, island exploration, and plenty of free time to relax and simply enjoy.

The retreat is suitable for singles, groups, and couples.

Overview

In this retreat, you’ll explore the connection between meditation and nature, which has a profound healing effect on mental health, deepening peace and connection.

Connect with the natural world, be present in the moment, and experience the untouched beauty of the Pakleni Islands with no cars or neighbors, just pristine beaches and Mediterranean landscapes. Immerse yourself in walking barefoot, picking figs and listening to the soothing sounds of crickets and waves.

Shakti mantra meditation, an ancient Vedic practice, is a powerful tool for deepening self-awareness. Through the use of a sacred sound, it leads to inner silence and harmony. This is an evidence-based technique that anyone can easily master and benefit from.

Experience the release of stress and the emergence of joy, energy, clarity, creativity, and long-term positive changes. The retreat also offers lectures, discussions, yoga, and experiential practices to help you understand your mind, manage stress, improve cognition, and establish a meditation routine for daily life.

No prior knowledge is required, and learning meditation is simple and accessible.

Schedule

Discover the day by day program of your meditation and yoga retreat in Pakleni Islands with Petra and Marco.

Day 1 - Arrival and meditation

Participants will meet at 16:00 at Hvar Island’s main square and then head by speedboat to the villa in Pakleni Islands. Once you’ve settled into your rooms and relaxed, you will join for the opening circle and an introductory lecture on Mantra meditation.

The first day will conclude with a homemade dinner served on the villa’s porch, surrounded by nature.

Day 2 - Shakti mantra ceremony, healing mud, and yoga

Through an ancient Vedic ceremony, each participant will receive their own personal sacred sound or mantra and will learn to meditate with it. Those participants who already have regular mantra meditation practice will have a chance to recheck and reestablish their personal mantra.

After the ceremony, the group will will meditate and conclude the morning by sharing experiences. Then, they will take time to recharge with a long and lazy brunch.

The afternoon will be reserved for visiting a nearby beach known for its ancient Roman spa. There, you can find Roman ruins, but what Fige Yoga really cares about is the healing mud there that will make your skin feel soft and smooth.

Before sunset, allow Petra to guide you through therapeutic asanas and pranayama practices to support your second daily round of meditation. Next, it will be time for dinner and sharing experiences.

Day 3 - Yoga and meditation, island exploring, and meditation workshop

The group will start the morning with gentle yoga, pranayama, and mantra meditation practice immersed in the spectacular nature of the private beach area.

After a delicious brunch, you will explore the Pakleni Islands on foot, taking a walk to the famous Palmižana beach. Embrace the lush Mediterranean forest, pristine sandy beaches, and relax with coffee or a glass of local wine in unique beach bars.

In the late afternoon, you will continue with the meditation workshop and gain a deeper understanding of how it shapes your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Dinner on this night will be at a sweet diner under a shiny sky.

Day 4 - Yoga and meditation, leisure, and sunset surprise

You will wake up early to catch the sun’s first rays, beginning the day with meditation followed by therapeutic asana and pranayama practice. Then, it will be time for a delicious brunch.

The afternoon will be dedicated to leisure activities like massage, relaxing with a book in your hammock, or simply having a long swim in the friendly Adriatic Sea - your choice.

Later, the group will gather for a workshop on the scientific perspective and various studies that have proved the effects of meditation on the human organism.

The last touch of the day will be embarking on a sunset meditation walk. Walking in silence is designed to help you deeply connect with the natural elements and with yourself. Fige Yoga believes that this island has a special energy, and they can’t wait to hear your impressions!

Upon return, you will be graced once again with an amazing dinner.

Day 5 - Meditation, lecture on home practice, and return, or...

Participants will start the day with gentle pranayama and meditation practice, followed by a structured lecture on when, where, and how to meditate back home. Practice will be followed by brunch.

Rejuvenated and recharged, you will be ready to return to the real world. Fige Yoga will escort you to the island of Hvar, where you can decide whether to stay to live in Croatia or to go back to your home.

Location

Pakleni Island is a gorgeous chain of wooded isles that stretches out immediately in front of the town of Hvar. Although the name literally means ‘Hell’s Islands,’ it’s thought to derive from ‘paklina,’ a pine resin that was once harvested there to waterproof boats.

The more descriptive name will be ‘green and blue paradise’ of the Dalmatian coast, for its plenty of deep blue caves and tiny white sandy beaches.

Food

Fige Yoga's food is prepared with fresh and seasonal ingredients from local farmers because they love to support the local economy.

During your stay, you’ll be delighted with two rich daily meals and afternoon snacks made by the in-house chef. Coffee, tea, fruits, and snacks will also be available throughout the day.
