Retreat Planning in Croatia
Yoga, wellness, and company offsites—venues, logistics, menus, and on-site support so you can lead, not juggle admin.
What we handle
Venues — coastal villas, island villages, inland hideaways matched to your dates, size, and budget.
Logistics — ferries, transfers, rooming, schedules that actually breathe.
Menus & On-site — chef options, dietary flows, discreet coordination.
Lead the retreat. We handle the rest.
Venues that breathe, logistics that flow, and on-site support that keeps it all effortless.
From ferry timetables to kitchen timings, we make Croatia feel like home.
Small-group retreats across islands and inland villages— You bring the practice. We bring the calm.
We started with a simple belief: retreats work best when the container is calm. Croatia gives us that—sea, islands, quiet inland villages—and we bring the rest: the right venue, a humane schedule, and smooth logistics so leaders can lead.
Over the years we’ve walked docks before sunrise, tested ferries and transfer routes, counted beds and blackout curtains, and learned which kitchens sing at scale.
Our Story
That homework lets us match your dates, group size, and budget without the drama. Yoga is our native language, and we plan with the same care for wellness gatherings, breathwork weeks, creative intensives, and small leadership offsites.
We keep the planning light and the standards high: clear timelines, honest ranges, and discreet on-site support when you want it. High-touch or mid-ticket, island or inland, we build weeks that breathe.
Fewer moving parts. Better rest.
A retreat that feels effortless to run—and unforgettable to join.

Option for on-site support when it matters
-
I started YogaHrvatska in 2020 to share the Croatia I know—sea, islands, inland villages—and to make retreat planning feel light. Today we’re a small, local team that designs calm containers for yoga, wellness, and team offsites. We match you with the right venue, manage logistics and menus, and provide discreet on-site support. You lead; we handle the rest.
-
We start by listening—purpose, dates, group size, budget, and the energy you want. From there, we curate a venue shortlist, align logistics (ferries, transfers, rooming), plan menus and dietary flows, and set a clear timeline. Sustainability matters, transparency is standard, and on-site coordination keeps the week calm and beautifully paced.
-
We support yoga and wellness leaders, coaches and therapists, creative studios, founders, and company teams. Whether it’s your first retreat or your fifteenth, we tailor venue, logistics, and on-site support to your style and group size (most often 10–20 guests). You bring the content; we create the container.
What others say about us
“Thank you Tamara for facilitating a beautiful retreat. Tamara was super helpful and responsive before my stay via email and there to assist during the retreat. The house was amazing, clean and beautiful, there was a cleaning crew daily and an amazing chef who prepared healthy meals. Croatia is a special place.
I swam in the clearest, bluest waters I've ever seen.
I found peace spending time in nature, which was abundant on the island. I was in awe with some of the most beautiful sunrises I've seen. I couldn't believe how beautiful everywhere smelled, because of the amount of rosemary and fragrant trees everywhere, even around the city. Heaven on earth. Grateful to meet some special people in this magical place 🙏.”

“A seamlessly incredible experience from start to finish. This was my first time doing any kind of retreat and I think I'm spoiled now as, according to others on the trip, this was indeed an exceptional retreat experience. The location, property, and amenities were exquisite, the food phenomenal, and the curriculum profound. Highly recommend.”
— Katie, yogini

With heartfelt gratitude to Sierra, Tamara & Sonja for creating & cultivating such a loving, fun & authentic experience allowing us to safely dive deep & explore all kinds of terrain. Still receiving & integrating all of the wisdom.

“Hard to put words to our exquisite week of yoga on Vis Island led by Marieke and Tim! You captured it so beautifully Tamara on your website! The sights, sounds, smells and the SILENCE linger in my bones! So incredibly restorative. Thanks so much for your delicious healthy food, for your warm and welcoming nature, your ease and great sense of humour! And for all the extra 'Tamara sparkle' along the way.. fresh coffee and cherry pie in the afternoon..home made body scrubs..lavender and liquor tasting with the locals.. drop offs and pick ups in your car..and all local tips and information to make sure we had the best experience ever! I'll be back!.”

“Spending time exploring Croatia and practicing with an incredible group of people was amazing. The experience was incredibly supportive, well-organized, and joyful. The retreat struck the perfect balance between movement, rest, and exploration—it was such a beautiful way to get to know the area. Every day offered something special, from thoughtfully led yoga sessions to optional outings that helped us connect with the landscape and local culture. Tamara is a terrific host and organizer. Plus a big shout out to Chef Sonja - who created fresh, innovative, and nourishing meals throughout the retreat. Thanks, YogaHravatska”
