YOGA Retreat in SYROS

The island of Syros, in the Cyclades

‍

Treat yourself to a dream stay on the island of Syros, in the Cyclades archipelago in Greece.

Syros is one of the smallest islands in the Cyclades, with a friendly, family-oriented atmosphere and few tourists; the charming town of Hermoupoli is the capital of the Cyclades.
Find peace and quiet, sunshine, and the sea in the southern part of the island, near Megas Gialos Beach.

Rediscover your inner peace, balance, and harmony; stretch, strengthen, and breathe deeply as you gaze out over the crystal-clear waters of the Aegean Sea.

Traditional Greek hospitality and the Sigalas family await you at their charming Hotel Alexandra, featuring modern, fully renovated rooms.

Come relax, recharge, improve your flexibility, and… treat yourself on this beautiful Cycladic island, Syros.
