The Cretan Earth Yoga & Meditation Retreat
We welcome you to Cretan Malia Park on the island of Crete – a harmonious place, where energy is so pure, and time seems to stand still.
Crete is considered one of the most healing places in the world, and no resort takes more advantage of a stunning natural setting than Cretan Malia Park. The design & architecture are breathtaking, seeming to grow out of the ground from the hotel’s surrounding nature of swaying palming trees, Malia’s bananas, fig trees and olive groves. The spacious, eco-sensitive rooms have wonderful sea or garden views, and all the modern comforts for a carefree vacation.

Agapi
Smell the figs, lose your breath skidding down rural farmers paths and feel the mountain breeze. Bake bread, or welcome the guests and become part of the big feast preparations. Or secretly maybe fall in love. Mostly daydream and connect with the big boisterous family soirees surrounded with all kinds of stories, fresh fruit and iced home- made raki.”
“August Fifteenth” is a journal of daily summer moments in rural Crete accompanied with colorful drawings, leaving free space for mind wondering and day dreaming.
The perfect bedside book to guarantee a night of sweet dreams.
