Of zal ik liever zeggen tien sterren❤️ een week vol liefde, gezelligheid, heerlijk eten, fijne yoga lessen Ik kom hier nu voor de derde keer en kan iedereen aanraden om Doby en Aleid te ontmoeten Lieve, gastvrije en enthousiaste mensen die je ontvangen in een heerlijke huiselijke sfeer. Aleid die je goed begeleid in de yoga lessen een goede coach is en waarmee je heerlijk kan struinen en wandelen door de prachtige natuur, ze houd van bloemen plukken en geniet van een nieuw pad kiezen tijdens de wandeling De kookkunsten van Doby zijn fantastisch 😍 Het zijn liefdevolle mensen die je een warm gevoel geven de hele week!! Je kan opladen, genieten tot rust komen zoals jij dat wil. Ik heb weer genoten van mijn relaxt week en heb ook zeker meer zelfliefde gekregen om mee te nemen naar huis Bedankt lieverds 🥰 jullie hebben een speciaal plekje in mijn ❤️

A week to remember! If you are looking for an individual or couple centred approach to healing, then Sharanam retreat will offer that and more. The retreat which is Aleid and Doby’s home is set in the beautiful Catalonian countryside surrounded by olive trees and vines, with mountains as a backdrop and the soothing sounds of the river flowing outside your window. Doby and Aleid are an amazing team, whose beautiful energy and compassion simply releases healing, they possess wisdom and knowledge that they readily shared through a programme that was tailored to needs. Aleid through the ease of instruction and wisdom in yoga or through the care and attention offered in healing sessions of balance and trust, and Doby who shared his love of food by creating amazing dishes from around the world and by offering therapeutic massage and reiki healing which he carried out with skill, care, and stillness. Together with their beautiful companion animals they have created a space that truly holds you. If you are reading this, don’t hesitate! I will certainly be returning.

Just got back from a week with the beautiful Aleida and Doby, our wonderful hosts, and special souls.The week of yoga, meditation, conversation and wounderful healthy home cooked food made me come away feeling refreshed and fulfilled and lighter then I have felt for many years. Being the first retreat that I have been on (and never doing yoga before) I was apprehensive what I was walking into. This retreat, the experience and how welcome I was made to feel, removed any doubts that I had. I am already planning on returning. Aleida has many years of experience, teaching and learning and this shines through in her yoga sessions and counselling. Dobys knowledge of food, and balanced healthy meals is amazing. I ate food (and loved it) that I had never heard of before and came away feeling I'd had a detox. Final shout out goes to their beauful animal companions, who were the cherry on the cake. If you are reading this review, you have found where you need to be, don't look any further just book it, it will have an impact on you and your life.

Aleida and Doby are lovely people and wonderful hosts. I spent one week at the retreat and enjoyed it so much. If you are looking for a friendly, warm place, yoga in small groups, a wonderful surrounding in the mountains of spain, nice long walks, great, fresh and healthy (vegetarian/vegan) food and time and calm for yourself this is the right spot! ☺️

Wat een heerlijke week!! Een verblijf bij Aleid en Doby zul je niet gauw vergeten. De fijne sfeer, de mooie natuur, de liefde en aandacht die voelbaar is in de yogasessies, de gesprekken, en niet te vergeten de fantastische gerechten van Doby. Ik heb genoten, kom graag weer terug volgend jaar en kijk uit naar de ochtendwandelingen met Hearty ❤️!

Wat een heerlijke week heb ik hier gehad. Terugdenkend zijn er zoveel aspecten die het een mooie ervaring maakte. Waaronder: De gastvrijheid en aandacht van Aleid en Doby. Goede gesprekken - of het nu het dagelijkse gesprek met Aleid was of als 'keuvelen' aan tafel of tijdens een wandeling. Yoga sessies waarbij met een ieders kunnen rekening gehouden werd. Het plekje / de prachtige natuur. De bijzondere plekken in de buurt droegen ook bij aan een verder stukje innerlijke reflectie. Heerlijke voedzame/gezonde maaltijden. Kleinschalig met echte aandacht. Een week op de goede plek met alle aandacht en verzorging die ik me wenste. De week overtrof mijn verwachtingen. Ik kom zekers terug. Lisette

This is no sausage factory retreat! The setting gives you a glimpse into authentic Catalonian life and the retreat offers you opportunities to explore and experience this. Aleid and Doby’s skills perfectly complement each other. Aleid gently guided and coached me during our yoga sessions and has deepened my insight and practice. She is also a gifted councillor. The heat that radiates from Doby’s deft hands during massages and reiki sessions was truly restorative. Then there is the food! Each meal was prepared with fresh organic ingredients and the flavours will stay with me for a long time. I should mention that my gluten intolerance was graciously catered for. I spent one week here and it is my intention to return. I hope you get the chance to treat yourself too.
