Anique Radiant HeartInvoking The Goddess

Your sanctuary in Crete

A white hotel with balconies, palm trees and flowering gardens under a blue sky.
Fly into Heraklion Airport on Day 1, and a short taxi ride brings you to our hotel, your sanctuary for the whole journey, close to the shops of Hersonissos. Settle in, breathe, rest. Each afternoon we return to rest before dinner.

On the first evening we gather as Sisters for our joyful Welcome Dinner, then share dinner together at the hotel each night.

Retreat setting

The Temple Palace of Malia, with the mountains beyond.
The temple sites, caves and grottos of the Great Mother are all within reach of the hotel. Each morning an air-conditioned coach takes us out with an experienced English-speaking local guide, and each afternoon brings us back for a swim and a rest before dinner. Pictured: the Temple of Malia, home of the Bee Priestesses.
