6 Days Family Yoga Holiday in Granada, Spain

Facilities

Casa Iris

Surrounded with ancient olive trees, wild nature, and spectacular views of the high sierras, the 70 square metres house comprises 2 bedrooms (one with a double bed and one with twin single beds), 2 bathrooms, and a beautiful terrace where guests can enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Casa Iris is an eco-friendly property that uses solar energy for electricity and water heater. It also has a kitchen, living room, Wi-Fi internet, a small TV, and a DVD player. In addition, guests may have full use of our swimming pool.

Yurts

Our yurts are eco-friendly, self-contained, fully furnished, and equipped with all modern facilities. Yurts have a different energy from more conventional living spaces: their rounded shape and pointed top create a sense of spaciousness and tranquillity. Guests can gaze up at the stars at night and enjoy the natural light during the day. Surrounded with rolling hills with olive orchards sloping up towards the majestic mountains, our goal is to get our guests closer to nature without sacrificing the comfort.

There is always an opportunity to take your yoga practice to a new level as you experience the joy of practicing outdoors in a warm climate. It can be hot during the daytime in Spain, so you have plenty of time to de-stress, whether its through self-reflection and meditation, spending a while in the pool, or just resting quietly. If you wish to include specific therapy treatments, we can arrange them in your program as well.

In the evenings, if you feel like getting to know the other visitors, you are welcome to join us at Armonia Alpujarra, where everyone gathers in family-style. Should you prefer to spend time separately with your own family, the big yurt is provided with cooking facilities. You may have your own little family dinner or take your family to a spa in downtown Lanjaron, which is pretty near.

We can tailor the program according to your requirements, both for yoga and family activities. There is a wide range of outdoor activities locally, from horse riding to walking along nature trails, rock climbing, camp craft, archery, and beach activities. We also work with local companies, such as outdoors education Only Solutions and Caballo Blanco Horse Riding.
