Coronavirus put the 2020 retreat season in a spin, provided challenges to 2021 but is happily much more of an inconvenience rather than game changer in 2022. Through any new challenges, as in the past, we’ll update as quickly as possible and refund anyone at any point.

Where we are now

In accordance with Greek regulations on Corona we took part in a 15 hour educational seminar in 2020, aiming to ensure the safe operating of the hospitality sector. May 2021 brought an updated course for us to enjoy! Practical changes keep the space relaxed but safe. In 2021 our team had to be vaccinated or test twice a week as the Greeks are keen not to have a spread from workers within the hospitality sector. 2022 rules still to be announced.

We are still very grateful to be here.

Anne wrote of a stay here in 2020 when we felt a bit like a corona oasis: I’m still very grateful for the 2 weeks I spent with you. It feels like my second home. Miss you and the beautiful ocean and nature. The good part is that I’m positive and loaded with energy.

Yoga Rocks and our Corona response

We have been and will be here to help folk navigate any changes that the situation makes necessary. Refunds up to retreat start date were important so folk could relax as well as cancel should their situation or feeling change on their holiday.

From 1 May 2022 it returned entry to Greece return to the way it was before the corona pandemic. There are no entry requirements such as vaccination history, or Covid status nor PLF forms to complete. Full details of what this means is on this Greek govt website: https://travel.gov.gr/#/ .

At the retreat

We always had a little bubble here, even during the corona times, but now live super relaxed, taking care but avoiding fear. We have rapid tests available to grab at any tiime onsite should anyone feel at all unwell.

Return Home Testing

Some guests in 2021 required negative tests to return home. Many countries such as the UK and Germany were OK with ‘rapid’ tests that cost 10 euro on Crete and can be drop in affairs on the return to the airport that are good for travel, certified with passport numbers. PCR tests (50-70 euro) may be needed by some. Depending on the number of guests requiring tests, often we can arrange a local testing centre to do tests at the retreat and email results for those needing PCR tests as well as rapid ones. This will avoid an excursion to be tested, gaining beach time!
