our Alicante Yoga Retreat
Yoga Retreats & Trainings was created with one idea in mind: to offer affordable yoga retreats, teacher trainings, immersions and seasonal yoga events. Anais Alvarado founded this company drawing from her experience running yoga studios and her own retreats, as well as those supported by other experienced teachers. It offers an alternative to anyone looking to deepen their yoga training or just take a break from their hectic day to day, without breaking the bank.
Our retreat venues are carefully selected, and we ensure there’s something for everyone. We often go back to the same venues because we just love them so much! We aim to offer a comfortable space, with lots of optional activities, spacious yoga rooms, and delicious local food. We welcome everyone to our retreats, no matter your age, level of experience, gender or size. We just want to do everything we can to help you unwind and recharge.
Our yoga trainings are devised by some of the best teachers in the UK and Europe. With a broad syllabus, interesting content and an up-to-date approach, we aim to help teachers find their own voice and stand out doing what they love. In 2020 we began to offer Further Trainings for teachers, ranging from Yin Yoga trainings, to full 300hr programs divided in 3 independent modules. And we aim to offer these every year.
For those who don’t have time to go on a retreat and aren’t quite interested in becoming yoga teachers, but love the practice, we have a wide variety of one-day trainings and day retreats where you will be able to disconnect from your fast-paced week and take some time for yourself, to learn something new.
Namaste!

Her classes aim to include everyone, they help you increase your flexibility and strength, whilst creating a space of quiet contemplation.

Suncokret Body & Soul Retreat is a unique boutique holistic retreat centre on Hvar Island, in the charming village of Dol Sveta Ana, a pristine 12th Century hamlet discretely nestled into the verdant brush & pinewood forest which rises above the island’s oldest settlement, Stari Grad. Guests are situated in 1 of 7 rooms within 3 semi-attached cottages, according to both preference and availability. Cottage communal areas, including bathrooms, lounges, balconies, terraces, etc. are shared between guests and hosts alike, along with life stories and special moments. A spiritual, “shabby-chic”, Dalmatian island farm-cottage ambiance prevails, and the atmosphere here is that of a supportive family of spiritually-minded friends.
In addition to the outdoor yoga terrace and a newly built indoor practice area, other shared facilities include the main living room and indoor dining area, an enclosed garden with outdoor dining area, as well as several other patios, decks, balconies in which guests enjoy socializing in with new retreat friends. Enjoy delicious, nutritious, fresh vegetarian meals made with love & expertise by Chef Stipe using home-grown organic island ingredients.
As part of our weekly program, we offer the chance to explore the best of Hvar Island’s natural, historical and cultural spots via our scheduled (but optional) daily outings. In addition, the scheduled afternoon program sessions by the sea and in nature will have you enjoying holistic practices in amazing locations, full of natural wonder and beauty. The end of the retreat week is topped-off by a magnificent sunset adventure that will deliver you in body, mind, and spirit, to the divine light of the sun.
I had a wonderful time and really enjoyed the weekend as a whole – and how all the different parts came together. The surroundings were fabulous and the hosts were great. It was great to have yoga inside/outside/in the water. I would definitely return to another retreat there if you were having one. The weekend was also great value for money. The yoga classes themselves were fabulous – varied, well-timed, fun, interesting, restful, stimulating – I was very much struck by your ability to be part of the group and the teacher at the same time – and I felt that you were very attuned to the group as a whole as well as individual needs within it. It seemed that everything happened very naturally but I suspect you were working very hard. I enjoyed your lessons, from the challenge to the peace, and also the philosophy and approach. It seemed like all bases were covered! I was really impressed!

Apart from making it twice as long I can’t think of anything I’d change. It all worked so seamlessly, with plenty to do, but also plenty of relaxing too. Loved every minute.
Stephanie E. – Alicante with Anais
The pace of the whole weekend was just right. I didn’t feel left wanting anything more or less. It was really nice to have the yoga sessions timed with dawn and dusk. The venue was perfect. José and Jay Jay were so warm and lovely.
Jameel C. – Alicante with Anais
You can see that Jose and JJ are really committed to their retreat and making it a worthwhile experience for all. JJ’s food was superb, overall the standard was amazing. AA’s organisation and the classes were out of this world, particularly enjoyed the morning classes under the canopy in the open, with lots of animal noises in the background. Just bliss. SUP Yoga was brilliant – even though hard – such a good experience!
