What we say

Our Yoga Holidays in Greece are a 5-night yoga retreat on the Greek island of Kefalonia, at our beachfront Lixouri Bay Beach Club. Picture yourself practising yoga under clear blue skies, surrounded by breath-taking Ionian views and the soothing sounds of the sea, then stepping straight off the mat onto a sandy beach or a paddleboard.

The holiday is run by our yoga teacher Nel, who trained in an Ashram in the foothills of the Himalayas and brings a gentle, accessible style to the mat. Sessions cover Vinyasa, Yin, Ashtanga and Hatha yoga, with breathwork, meditation and sound baths woven through the day. All levels welcome: Nel tailors every session to the room.

You're not on the mat all day. Club Board covers breakfast every morning and three evening meals through the week, with the Beach Club's full watersports fleet (sailing, windsurfing, paddleboarding, winging) and road bikes available between classes. A proper yoga retreat in Greece with plenty of time to be quiet.

Food & drink

The yoga week runs on Club Board: breakfast every morning and three evening meals through the stay (welcome night and BBQ night bookending, plus one mid-week). The Beach Club kitchen does seasonal, locally-sourced Greek food that suits the yoga context: fresh plates, generous salads, a proper vegetarian line-up, and the local Robola whites for the evenings that aren't strictly post-savasana.

What's included

Breakfast every day + 3 evening meals (welcome, mid-week, farewell BBQ). Lunches and other dinners are pay-as-you-go at the club taverna or local tavernas.

Fresh Greek salad and mezze plates
From our team

Seasonal, local, generous

At Lixouri Bay the kitchen leans into what's on the Paliki peninsula that week: tomatoes picked that morning, goat's cheese from the village, fig leaves, wild oregano. The food works beautifully next to a yoga week: plenty of vegetables, fresh fish when you want it, nothing that leaves you heavy.

In the local area

Akrogiali Taverna

5 min drive

Long-standing family taverna on the Lixouri seafront. Grilled fish, Greek salads, kind service.

Maistrato

5 min drive

Harbourfront spot for a pause between yoga days. Great for a quieter lunch.

I-Scream Ice Cream

5 min drive

Honest Greek ice-cream in Lixouri town square. Non-negotiable at least once.

Apolafsis

10 min drive

A little further out, worth the extra five minutes for the freshest fish and warmest welcome.

Itinerary

A gentle, flexible week. Multiple yoga sessions run each day; dip into whichever ones you want to. Between sessions the Beach Club is yours: beach, pool, watersports, road bikes, long lunches. Nel will fine-tune the daily shape to the group on arrival.

Location

  • Yoga Holidays KefaloniaYour base

Kefalonia

Kefalonia is one of a group of islands on the western side of Greece in the Ionian sea. It is the largest of the Ionian islands and parts of the island are now national parks, home to wild horses, golden eagles and other protected flora and fauna.

Getting there

The Beach Club is easy to reach: 3 hour flights to Kefalonia Airport (EFL) from most UK airports, then a 60 minute transfer round the bay to Lixouri Bay on the Paliki peninsula. Flights are not usually included; we can book them as part of an ATOL-protected package (ATOL 12803).

Flight times
Arrive by 18:00 · Depart after 11:00

Direct summer flights to Kefalonia (EFL) run from most UK airports. Pre-book a transfer with us on arrival, as the airport is often hectic.

What we recommend

Pre-book your arrival transfer and be met at the airport. For the return, some guests take the Lixouri-to-Argostoli ferry (20 minutes) plus a short taxi to EFL for a gentler end to the week.

I had a fabulous fitness week at the beach club in Lixouri. The staff were amazing, nothing was too much trouble and they are super friendly. The accomodation and food offerings were fantastic. I do this trip every year and every year it gets better!

What a fabulous holiday! From start to finish - Kostas , Akis & their family could not have done anything more for us - nothing is too much trouble , the rooms are spotlessly clean , large and although simple - well equipped. The food is fantastic , portions are huge! We would recommend hiring a car if you want to go into Lixouri - it’s a good hour’s walk or 10 euros each way in a taxi. The beach club and watersports are brilliant. Hugo and his team - Nell ( yoga guru) , Ben , Max , Jake & Ellie ( cycle queen) are so friendly, professional and have health & safety at the forefront. I really wish I had done more activities- oh well , we will have to return! Fitness Is was amazing - great workouts and a lovely group of ladies Thank you all !
