Perched above 1,000 metres in the ancient forests of Piatra Craiului National Park in Transylvania, where bears, lynx and wolves still roam beneath centuries-old trees, Akasha Retreat offers eleven individually designed rooms and a quietly ambitious wellness programme: daily yoga in a dedicated indoor studio, sauna and jacuzzi, massage therapies and a sustainably sourced farm-to-table kitchen earning Romania’s only mention in Rizzoli’s Wellness Bucket List. Named Romania’s Best Wellness Retreat at the 2024 World Spa Awards, this small mountain sanctuary earns its place through the rare restorative power of one of Europe’s last genuinely wild landscapes.

We are Irina, Daniela & Elena. The current custodians of Akasha Healing Retreat. We started this family project by combining our experience as entrepreneurs in hospitality & healing, backed by medicine. We lived in London, UK over 20 years, and for a really long time we shared the dream of a house in the mountains. We wanted to create a space that brings people together, where healthy food is delicious not just functional & where healing happens naturally with yoga, hikes, herbalism & relaxation. We wanted to surround ourselves with kind like minded people that believe in the power of healing that nature brings to the human spirit, like it did for us.
Healing is... The balance of our physical & emotional states by fostering a deeper connection with nature, making conscious choices about food & take part in something magical, a thriving, free thinking, kind community.
