Summersalt Yoga

Just finished the Foodie Yoga Retreat on Vis and it was a fantastic week. The food was really wonderful, the villa beautiful, I was challenged in the yoga classes and the company was perfect. I would highly recommend this retreat to anyone!

My husband and I had the most amazing time on the balance retreat last week. Milda and Mario were great hosts. The food was delicious and they were able to cater with ease for my complicated dietary needs. We met the most amazing people and made great new friends. the yoga which was taught by the lovely Leah was just what we both needed. I have come home feeling refreshed and relaxed. Vis is a beautiful magical place and we cant wait to return! One of our best holidays, I would highly recommend it!

Amazing retreat in beautiful location! Our yoga teacher was very attentive, the food was healthy and delicious, prepared from organic foods in villa and the tours were fun and interesting. Loved the family vibe there. It was hard to leave after the yoga retreat since it felt like we knew everyone for ages. Highly recommend for singles or couples who want to have their holiday in a relaxing environment. Now they do yoga retreats not only in Croatia, but in Portugal and Thailand too! Hopefully will try them soon!

Great retreat in Croatia! Beautiful location, delicious food and plenty to do if desired or just to chill. Exploring different aspects of Yoga with Vanessa was great, she was patient and adjusted to different needs. Mario was a very knowledgeable, friendly and involved guide to the area and its history and Milda served up delicious meals. Lovely vibe..

I loved every aspect of this yoga retreat! The location was just breath taking, Vis is such a perfect little island! The house we stayed in was super comfortable and had a beautiful view of the sea and sunset/sunrise. Mario and Milda are super welcoming and made me feel welcome from moment 1. The food is healthy and delicious. The yoga classes were beautiful. The teacher, Sabi, such a lovely person. The activities carefully selected, the people attending the retreat, etc etc. Super recommend! <3

I have recently spent 6 days doing a yoga retreat with Summersalt Yoga in Vis, and I have to say that everything ran perfectly good and I had a memorable and such enjoyable time over there. First of all, the organisation from Milda and Mario is very good and efficient, and you feel at home since the very fist moment you contact them and in addition are such an openmind travellers and people with whom you can chat about many different things. The villa itself, in the gorgeus location of Vis, is amazing and I can never get enough of that view. The villa has all kind of amenities and it is big, clean and a cosy place to stay in.
The activities organised were well prepared and it is a fun way to get to know the island together with the rest of the participants. The food made by Milda is just amazing, whatever you are vegetarian or not, it is just super healthy and tasty, having a different menu set every day. Mario's knowledge about his own country is too very relevant as he gives you a good overview of what was Croatia in the past and what it is today.
As regards the yoga, after the practise during the retreat I felt so relax and good, both mentally and physically, thanks mainly to the great teaching skills of Leah. She is an experience yoga teacher who loves to transmit all her knowledge and experience direct from her heart, making her lessons an unique thing to try. I appreciated too that everyday we worked on different exercises and parts of our body.
Well done to you guys.

A really well organized and fun week. I highly recommend Summersalt Yoga to any yogie looking for a 'bit more' than 2 yoga classes a day. We had interesting island tours, history lessons, organized visits to stunning beaches and 'off the beaten track' restaurants. The 'foodie' theme to the week was genuine and impressive - some fantastic meals. Brigid's yoga classes were also some of the most enjoyable I've had. Mario was also a brilliant host and engaging lecturer on the history and politics of Croatia. Accomodation first class, and Vis the Island, definitely worth a visit.

Amazing Retreat!

I attended the Balance Retreat in Oct 2016.

Vanessa is a fabulous yoga teacher, with each day of our retreat focusing on a different chakra. Her classes are challenging for the body, and nourishing for the soul.

In addition to handling all things administrative, Milda was our chef for the week. Fantastically delicious meals!! In seven days, I never once heard anyone say they were hungry. We inhaled everything she prepared.

Mario was our attentive guide. His knowledge of Croatian history, as well as wine producing, provided us with hours of entertaining stories.

The island of Vis offers spectacular ocean views wherever you look. The private villa where the retreat is held is comfortable and spacious. We had common areas where we could gather as a group, and there were enough private spots where one could have some alone-time if needed.

Highly recommended!!!!!

The island of Vis is the perfect choice for a yoga retreat. The dedicated team make you feel welcome and they're eager to pass on local knowledge. The vegetarian/vegan meals were unique and delicious. Lastly, the yoga was perfect no matter how experienced you are or what level your practice. I loved it!

Amazing location, staff and experience. Perfect combination if your favorite things are yoga, different cultural experiences and taking a pause from the daily routine. Oh and btw, food was amazing.

Summersalt Yoga went above and beyond my expectations!!! Milda and Mario are the perfect hosts. The food was exceptional and the excursions to various beaches and towns were an added bonus to the retreat. Our yoga instructor, Sabi, led us through incredible vinyasa flows in the morning and yin style flows in the evening- the perfect combination! I have been practicing yoga for over 5 years, and felt the flows to be the perfect challenge. I brought my 65 year old mother, who is new to yoga, and she was able to participate in every class with helpful modifications. The small number of yogis (only 9 in our group) allowed you to more intimately connect with like-minded individuals. Traveling in such a small group felt less "touristy" as well. Last, but certainly not least... THE STUNNING VIEWS!!! I was never disappointed with the view in any direction: the Adriatic Sea , vineyards, quaint villages. I travel quite frequently, and this will go down as one of my top experiences! Thank you.

I spent incredible week in Croatia at Summersalt yoga retreat. Gorgeous island + attentive yoga teacher + delicious healthy food + amazing villa = best way to relax and find new inspirations. Highly recommended for those who want to relax and enjoy the moment.

Some girlfriends and I just spent a week doing the Foodie and Yoga retreat with Summersalt Yoga in Vis. It has been one of my best holidays ever - the island is beautiful, so chilled and really sets the mood - being awoken by church bells, sea gulls calling from blue skies during the morning yoga on the terrace and getting lost in the small village of Vis, with stunning scenary and crystal clear waters. Besides the wonderful yoga from Brigid (morning vinyasa and evening restorative yin) and the fascinating history lessons and wine tastings from Mario, the island offers so much more to do like supping, hiring a scooter and exploring, enjoying a fresh juice at a cafe by the sea, visiting the stunning beaches and the blue cave and eating the most delicious food from Lola cafe and other great restaurants. I can highly recommend the foodie and yoga retreat if you want a week to travel back in time, relax, unwind and take some time to invest in yourself. Thank you Milda, Mario and Brigid.

Amazing experience! I recommend this yoga retreat to anyone who wants to recharge, relax and have an active rest for 7 days - on beautiful island of Vis. The teachings were wonderful and suitable to all levels, veggie meals tasty and nourishing, and the whole team dedicated and open-minded. Thank you so much!

This was my first serious encounter with yoga and I must admit that it completely caught me off guard. I arrived to Vis island barely being able to walk due to my lower back injury with a bare minimum expectations (yep, I'll just lie in the sun for a week as I won't be able to take part in the yoga practices as I'm barely able to put on my socks!). After a week now I am not only able to walk but run and attend yoga practices at the studio and gym. Thank you Leah, the passionate nomadic Yogi, for such an incredible patience, experience and the most genuine smile I've seen for a looong time... thank you Milda for the tasty eye opening meals and care and Mario, for your extensive knowledge of Croatia's history and culture. This week has cleared my mind, helped regain my energy and motivation getting away from my busy lifestyle in the 'Big Smoke'.

Summersalt yoga is everything you need from a yoga retreat. The morning and afternoon yoga classes, the people you meet, the places you see and the food you eat all add to the incredible experience.
