Come stay with us on Greece’s largest island, where charming villages and ancient history meet dramatic mountains and stunning turquoise beaches.
Crete isn’t just a beautiful backdrop — it is a place that teaches you how to slow down and actually smell the flowers.
Along with meaningful continuing education with fellow professionals, you will experience their distinctive cuisine, beautiful beaches, Greek hospitality, and time to explore on your own.
This is more than a retreat. This is permission to refill your own cup and return home to restore your practice an reclaim your peace.
The investment for our therapist's retreat in Crete has an early bird pricing of $5299. After January 1, 2027, the price will increase to $5599.
For those that would like to share a room with another professional attending the retreat, the price is $4499/person, with an early bird price of $4199/pp. We will need the name of who you are sharing a room with and their booking confirmation.

We only book upscale - luxury hotels. You will have your own room, unless you make the choice to have a roommate.
We have planned activities for every day, along with some alone time so you can reflect and reset. Spending a day at Europe's #1 beach, Elafonissi, is on the itinerary, as well as a cooking class, and an olive oil & wine tasting tour at one of Crete's most famous estates. Also included are:

All meals outside of breakfast, snacks, and welcome dinner. We would never dream of keeping you from exploring this wonderful cuisine.
Alcoholic beverages (some wine and beer will be provided)
Crete is renowned for its safety. Aside from petty theft like local pick-pocketers, Crete has a very low crime rate. The main safety concern is the driving, if you choose to rent a car. The rural mountains and steep, underdeveloped roads that lead to some of the most beautiful places Crete has to offer, lack proper signage and require careful navigating.
All retreats require a $350 USD non-refundable deposit. 50% refund if canceled 60+ days prior to the start of our retreat, 25% refund if canceled 30+ days prior to the start of our retreat. There will be no refund if canceled 29 days or less before the retreat. You will have the option to reschedule to another retreat, provided that your balance is paid in full. If the retreat is canceled on the part of Olive Connections for unforeseen circumstances, a full refund will be issued.
Olive Connections holds no financial responsibility for changes to airfare and other miscellaneous charges.
