There are some places that never really leave you.

For us, Italy is one of them. (Clearly, we moved here from San Francisco 14 years ago!)

The sun-washed coastlines. Long lunches that somehow turn into late afternoons. Tiny villages splashed with color. Delicious meals made with the freshest ingredients. A glass of wine enjoyed with nowhere else to be. The sound of laughter around the table. And those little moments when you look around and think, this is exactly where I want to be.

In 2027, we're inviting you to experience three very different sides of Italy through three unforgettable SOLE HOLIDAYS retreats.

Each has its own personality, landscape, and rhythm, but all share the same ingredients we love the most: beautiful places, wonderful people, wellness, adventure, incredible food and plenty of la dolce vita.

So... which Italy is calling you?

Gorgeous Days in positano, amalfi coast, italy

Positano Paradise - MAY 24-29, 2027

We can’t believe this will be our 15th journey to POSITANO!

That's a lot of yoga, laughter, pasta, sunsets, friendships, and unforgettable memories. And we're still completely enchanted by this magical corner of Italy.

Perched dramatically along the jeweled cliffs of the Amalfi Coast, Positano is one of those places that seems almost too beautiful to be real. Colorful buildings tumble toward the sparkling Mediterranean, lemon trees perfume the air and around every corner is another breathtaking view.

Our 15th Annual Positano Paradise Retreat is designed to help you slow down, feel incredible and savor it all.

Start your mornings with yoga and wellness practices overlooking the sea. Spend your days exploring the coastline, hiking scenic trails, discovering charming villages, and enjoying delicious farm-to-table Italian meals.

And then there are the evenings...

Golden sunsets. Long dinners. Laughter. The Mediterranean stretching endlessly before you.

It's the kind of place where you quickly forget what day it is and remember how wonderful it feels to simply be present.

Think: cliffside yoga, Mediterranean views, fresh Italian food, coastal adventures, sunshine, connection, and la dolce vita at its finest.

Positano isn't just a retreat. It's an unforgettable feeling.

Bellagio, Lake Como - MAY 29-Jun 2, 2027

A Dreamy Escape Into La Dolce Vita

If Positano is dramatic and vibrant, Lake Como is elegant, serene, and effortlessly romantic.

And at the heart of it all is Bellagio.

Often called the "Pearl of Lake Como," Bellagio is a beautiful maze of cobblestone lanes, colorful buildings, charming boutiques, lakeside cafés, and spectacular views across the water.

Our Lake Como retreat is all about embracing the art of slow travel.

Picture yourself cruising across the lake by boat, passing grand villas and lush gardens as the mountains rise dramatically around you.

Enjoy local wine. Wander charming villages. Savor beautiful meals. Take time for wellness and simply soak up the scenery.

And, of course, we'll make time for a little Italian magic along the way.

Because sometimes wellness isn't about doing more.

Sometimes it's about doing less and enjoying it more.

A long lunch.

A boat ride.

A glass of wine.

A beautiful view.

A conversation that lasts hours.

That's la dolce vita.

Think: sparkling lake waters, morning yoga, beautiful villas, boat rides, Italian wine, slow mornings, charming villages and days designed to be savored.

Charming Cinque Terre - JUN 6-11, 2027

Color, Coastlines & Italian Adventure

And then there's Cinque Terre and it's impossible not to smile when you see it!

Five colorful villages dramatically perched along the Ligurian coastline, each with its own personality and charm.

Brightly painted homes cascade toward the sea. Fishing boats bob in tiny harbors. Narrow streets wind through the villages. And spectacular hiking trails connect it all.

Our Cinque Terre retreat brings together some of our favorite things about Italy:

Wellness. Adventure. Nature. Food. Beaches. And plenty of time to wander.

We'll explore the charming towns, hike along the stunning coastline, discover beautiful viewpoints, enjoy time by the sea and make space for wellness practices along the way.

It's an active escape, but never rushed.

Because there's something wonderful about traveling at a pace that lets you actually notice where you are.

Stop for gelato.

Take the scenic route.

Swim in the sea.

Find a little café.

Watch the sunset.

Get lost in a colorful alleyway.

Repeat.

Think: colorful villages, coastal hikes, yoga in the garden. sparkling Mediterranean waters, beach time, delicious food, wellness, and endless Italian charm.

Three Retreats. Three Ways to Live La Dolce Vita

Perhaps you've always dreamed of practicing yoga above the Mediterranean in Positano.

Maybe you've imagined sipping wine beside Lake Como and cruising between beautiful Italian villages.

Or perhaps the colorful cliffs and coastal trails of Cinque Terre have been calling your name.

Whatever your version of Italy looks like, we're ready to welcome you.

Because these retreats aren't simply about seeing beautiful places.

They're about how those places make you feel.

The laughter around the dinner table.

The first sip of coffee in the morning.

The feeling after a beautiful hike.

The warmth of the Italian sun.

The people you meet along the way.

The unexpected moments that become your favorite memories.

And that little voice that says:

I wish I could stay here forever.
We hope to see you in 2027!
