Wellness is a journey, not an achievement.
An odyssey is a journey, we believe you are the curator of your journey, we just help you shape it, and travel it. Aura is your energy, the feeling you carry, the character of a place, & the essence, the intangible quality of an experience is the light you carry once it is done. That is the whole idea: a week of movement, culinary discovery, cultural immersion and long afternoons. A quiet clarity that follows you home. We built Odyssey Aura for people ready to wind down, de-stress and return to themselves.
There is no single script for feeling like yourself again.
We started Odyssey Aura because we were tired of one-size-fits-all. Not everyone finds peace and calm in the same way. We are all built differently, and we want to embrace that individuality and allow our guests to help shape their retreat.
We curate a selection of retreats and events, and are always open to building new ones if demand is there. Some of us find our solace and reset on a yoga mat. Some of us need waves. Some need mountains. Some need a proper reset of what we eat, how we sleep, how we move.
So we built a collection of retreats around the world: Italy, Portugal, Spain, Bali and Thailand, with a wide variety of activities all under one roof.
One common purpose runs through all of it: to make you feel rejuvenated and alive and return to who you are.
A tapestry of retreats: movement, creation, flavour and rest, woven into one collection.
Twelve guests, never more
Every escape caps at twelve. Your host will spend time getting to know you, who you are, what your goals are for the week. Your instructor quickly learns your pace, curating the week to fit exactly what you hoped it would be. Small intimate groups helps us keep the quality high, and gives you a higher chance to really get the most out of the week. In a world that hurries, this is where you wind down.
One house for the week
No hotels, no shared coaches, We take the whole property, so mornings stay slow, nothing feels borrowed, and the house becomes part of your own aura of calm.
Food as part of the practice
Local kitchens, produce from within an hour's drive, and long lunches that are allowed to run over. Culinary master tailors the weeks menu to the practice, and guests dietary preferences. Where possible, all food is locally sourced, with a low carbon footprint.
Space left deliberately empty
Two sessions a day, one excursion, and afternoons that belong to you. Rest is the itinerary, not the gap in it. De-stressing happens in the spaces we protect.
