The rooftop is your living room
Hand-built pergolas, hammocks, an ouril board, and an outdoor kitchen with stove, fridge, and coffee machine—yours all day and evening.
The whole house, to yourselves
Bring your five favourite people.
Three bedrooms, three private bathrooms, one rooftop terrace, and nobody else in the house. Cristina sets the rooftop table for six at the hour you choose, Maria keeps every room spotless, and Bronk is already waiting by the yellow door.

Questions groups ask
Is booking the whole house cheaper than booking three rooms separately?
At €275/night, it equals the exact sum of Vitamin (€95) + Oxygen (€95) + Energy (€85), with zero group surcharge. Stay 7 nights and you get the 7th night free (€1,650 instead of €1,925).
We are only four people—can we still book the whole house?
Yes. Up to six guests can stay, so a group of four simply gets all three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and the rooftop to themselves.
Can we cook our own meals in the house?
The rooftop outdoor kitchen (two-burner stove, fridge, coffee maker, cookware) is completely free for your group to use for lunches, snacks, or casual dinners, while Cristina still serves breakfast every morning.
Is the house completely empty of staff?
No—Cristina and Maria come in each morning to prepare breakfast and refresh the rooms, and Bronk lives here. If anyone in your group is nervous around dogs, let us know before booking.
Do clubs, yoga teachers, or schools get a commission?
No. We keep our direct price transparent rather than inflating rates to pay commissions. You set and invoice your own retreat or workshop fee to your participants; licensed tour operators with an existing net contract can use their contracted rate.
