Local guide & travel expert
Born in Naples with deep roots in Ischia, Giuseppe grew up spending summers on the island surrounded by its lush landscapes, thermal springs, and timeless traditions.
With a rich background in tourism and hospitality, he’s passionate about travel, cultural heritage, and connecting people through storytelling.
He speaks four languages and has guided guests through sacred sites and botanical wonders in Spain, most recently at the Pyramids of Güímar in Tenerife.
Now, he returns to Ischia to share its hidden trails, ancient ruins, and local gems offering an authentic experience only a true insider can provide.
"Ischia isn’t just a place, it’s a feeling. And I’m here to help you discover it."
Lenka and Giuseppe bring two worlds together — one guiding you inward through yoga and mindfulness, the other guiding you outward into the culture, nature, and heart of Ischia. Together, they create a retreat experience where wellness, connection, and discovery flow in harmony.
Details of this retreat
Not all escapes take you far away, some bring you closer to yourself…
Elemental Ischia Retreat is a 4-day, 3-night immersive experience that invites you to slow down, reset, and reconnect not only with nature, but with your inner rhythm. This retreat blends yoga, meditation, culture, and thermal wellness in one of Italy’s most magical settings: the volcanic island of Ischia.
Even if you had the best virtual reality glasses, you still couldn't fully capture the feeling of being here, surrounded by lemon groves, the scent of fig trees in the air, and the sound of the sea just steps away. Located in the heart of the Tyrrhenian Sea, Ischia has been a healing sanctuary for over 2,000 years. The Romans once bathed in its thermal springs and covered themselves in volcanic mud to restore vitality and balance. Today, that same energy flows through the island’s fertile soil and the healing waters, offering you a rare chance to realign with the elemental forces within and around you.
Led by a dedicated yoga teacher certified in Hatha Flow, Vinyasa Krama, and Meridian Yin and a local guide fluent in four languages this retreat is thoughtfully designed to blend movement, stillness, discovery, and connection. Mornings begin with dynamic and meditative yoga,, and guided breathwork, held either outdoors in nature or in a peaceful studio space. All levels are welcome, and each practice is adapted to help you feel grounded, present, and nourished.
Afternoons invite you into the living, breathing culture of Ischia. Through curated excursions, you’ll explore an ancient castle by the sea, authentic fishing villages, marine thermal waters, healing waters, all with stories told by those who know the island intimately. Along the way, you’ll savor homemade meals crafted with sun-ripened local produce. Ischia’s culinary tradition is deeply rooted in the land, and every meal is a celebration of nourishment and joy.
You’ll be hosted in a cozy, family-run hotel just steps from the sea, offering a tranquil environment with geothermal pools, a sauna, steam room, and a dedicated yoga terrace and studio. Rooms range from shared to private, all with essential comforts and surrounded by lush gardens.
Whether you’re seeking to restore balance, reconnect with yourself, or simply experience something deeper than a vacation, Elemental Ischia Retreat offers a space to breathe, feel, and be.

You’re craving reconnection with nature and yourself
You’re looking for a small group retreat with authentic, local guidance
