    "Perfectly curated"

    The food, the chef, the massage, the spa day, the retreat leaders, the hiking guide, the easy transfers to/fr airport, the train passes, the fluffy robe =everything!

    "I’m not sure which of the 3 Jessica’s it was as I don’t know"

    I don’t know her last name. But she was beyond amazing. I don’t think I’ll ever find another yoga teacher so inspirational, upbeat, flexible and who reads the room knowing exactly what we need each time

    "Mountain detox June 2024"

    Good comfortable chalet, sumptuous brunch and fabulous vegetarian dinner. Great schedule yoga + hiking + spa + day trip to town. Good yoga practice twice daily.

    It was a great experience, yoga was very grounding and settling, every practice was very special and the postures were always introduced in different variations and adjusted to the group needs and the activities of each specific day.

    The place was very beautiful just to walk around and stare at mountains, I always had enough things to do if I wanted to, and enough of the relaxation time.

    The meal served by a super talented chef was absolutely delicious. There were also a few organised hikes in the area with great views.

    Lovely experience in general that I would definitely recommend to anyone wishing to have time with themselves, nature, and nice people around.

    "Wohlfühlprogramm Pilates & Hiking Retreat "

    Genau das was ich mir von meinem Retreat versprochen hatte: Entschleunigung, Bewegung, Erlebnis und fantastisches Essen - trotz all meiner Unverträglichkeiten. Das Team ist sehr darum bemüht, dass du dich wohl fühlst und bei Fragen immer ansprechbar. Es war das erste Pilates Retreat, da der Schwerpunkt sonst auf Yoga liegt. Unsere Kursleiterin Ally McDonald Bull hat uns mit ihren kreativen und pragmatisch Ansätzen zu Pilates-Fans gemacht. Wenn man so manchmal auf die Uhr schaut und sich fragt wann die 60 min rum sind, verflog die Zeit nur.

    "Great experience "

    The retreat was absolutely out of my expectations. It is a great, luxurious place to be, with kind, friendly and great hosts and stuff . It was organized in the best possible way. I enjoyed my classes with our great yoga teacher Lisa who made sure that we are advancing daily. She was kind, professional, dedicated and took time to be present with each one of us. Our hiking guide Suz took us on the amazing spots where we had chance to see the beauty of the mountains and nature, I have to mention her dog Obi, he is adorable. The best ever chef Jonno who prepared delicious food, you can expect in the famous luxury restaurants expressing his unique style and artistic expression. Spa and massage was nourishing for soul and mind. I'm grateful for the experience and highly recommend the retreat. I will go gladly again.

    "Blue Rise Chamonix"

    Everything! The chalet was beautiful with excellent facilities (even if the lights were a bit odd to operate!). Excellent chef who catered to all needs and cooked us some delightful food. Ellie, Josh and Vanessa were very friendly and welcoming. Ellie and Josh were extremely accommodating with where people wanted to go and took care of everything from lessons ski hire and transfers. I only needed to pack! Vanessa is a wonderful yoga instructor who read the class brilliantly and taught me yoga practice I hadn't experienced before. All in all I would definitely recommend this retreat for skiing and yoga.

    "A retreat to be connected with yourself again"

    The retreat was great! It was one of the best experiences of my life. Not only the relaxation within the retreat, but also the self-development that I was able to experience with the help of the instructors.

    "Really loved it - worth every cent!"

    I enjoyed this retreat so much, there was always such a positive vibe and it even felt a bit like family!

    Everyone really went out of their way to get you what you wanted (e.g. special-order desert by the phantastic cook, additional transfers into the city-center, or specially providing Coca-Cola because while I know it’s not healthy, I really love it) - and they did it with a genuine smile.

    I was a bit hesitant at first to book this, because I thought it was a bit higher-priced than some other retreats I had looked at: But I think, that since so much was already included in the price (transfers, 1-hr-massage, day-spa ticket, etc.) that in the end, I paid less than for the others, where so many things would have led to additional costs.

    And now that I’ve been there; even if it had been higher priced than other retreats, it would still have been worth it :-)

    The accommodation, the location, the natural beauty, the staff, the food, the hikes, the hiking guide, Anna James and Eleanor and Suz, the excursions, the ambiance that all this together created

    "A lovely week of exercise and relaxation in the French Alps"

    + The chalet offered pure luxury! A magnificent view into the valley and up towards the mountains. Five star facilities: Comfortable beds. Individually decorated rooms (continent-themed). A pool. A hot tub. A sauna, steam and massage room. A fire place. A large terrace and balcony. A small bar area. A games room. A private little movie theatre. A big dining and seating area. Keywords: comfortable and spacious.

    + The surroundings were simply stunning. The snow-capped mountains and lush green hills. Small meltwater streams here and there (one right next to the chalet). Great hiking paths through the forest.

    + A well thought through week's schedule that offered a great mix of yoga sessions and guided activities (hikes, night out in Chamonix, spa trip to Italy), but also left plenty of room for everybody's own plans, relaxation and excursions.

    + Being able to try out varying yoga styles in energising morning and calmer, more relaxing evening sessions. The choice of Naomi Hayama as a yoga teacher was excellent.

    + The massage session!

    + The food was amazing! Even as a non-vegetarian, I thought the (fully vegetarian) meals were absolutely delicious, very varied and always supplied in copious amounts.

    + The fact that one felt pampered and well looked after. That we didn't have to worry about buying and preparing food, doing the dishes or the washing. That even towels, bathrobes and slippers were supplied. One could simply be, switch off and relax...
