Itinerary

Day 1

KALIMERA, CRETE

Welcome to Crete.

Your Helios experience begins the moment you arrive. At 14:00, our private transfer will be waiting at the airport to whisk you away to your retreat haven overlooking the Cretan Sea.

Once checked in, take a moment to settle in, soak up the views, and breathe it all in. As the sun dips lower, you’ll meet your fellow guests and the Helios team, who will be taking extra care of you for the days ahead.

We'll ease into the experience with a grounding yoga session, followed by a vibrant Greek feast to celebrate your first evening on the island.

Day one is all about arriving fully—physically, mentally, and soulfully—into the Helios way of life.

Day 2

RISE & SHINE

Sweat, recover, unwind.

Time to detox your mind with yoga and break a sweat during a HIIT class at the Asana fitness centre, a state-of-the-art dome with the most beautiful backdrop you’ll ever work out with.

We’ll follow our sweat sessions with nourishing meals and leave some free time to relax before a coastal walk and an afternoon enjoying the beach.

Day 3

OFF-THE-BEATEN-PATH

Start your day strong.

Begin your retreat with an energising workout, followed by a grounding morning Vinyasa to stretch it all out and set your intentions.

Then, it’s time to rev up the excitement—hop on quad bikes and ride through rugged trails, cliff-edge paths, and ancient corners of Crete that few get to see.

This is not just a day out—it’s an unforgettable adventure waiting to unfold.

Day 4

GREEK PARADISE

The transformation continues.

Each day invites you to shed the weight of stress and step into your strongest, most vibrant self through daily sessions in the stunning Asana Dome.

Train with our elite Helios coaches and push your limits—as much or as little as you like. Every session is optional, and everything moves at your pace.

As the day goes on, we celebrate the new friendships with a stunning sailing experience. An unforgettable moment to connect and make a toast to an epic week.

Crete, you’ve truly captured our hearts.

Day 5

YAMAS, HELIOS FAM!

We’ll send you off in true Helios style.

Our last day starts with a detoxifying morning workout followed by a revitalising yoga or stretch session to leave you feeling balanced and energised.

Then it’s time to gather for one final brunch, savouring fresh Greek flavours and good company before checking out at 11 am. Your private transfer will be ready to take you back to the airport with ease.

You’ll leave feeling rejuvenated, restored, and reconnected with a renewed sense of appreciation for the little things, and a whole lot of sun-soaked memories to take home.

Where you'll be staying

We hand-pick extraordinary hotels and dreamy villas, creating the perfect backdrop for a week of fitness, adventure, and pure relaxation. Always stylish, always comfortable.
