Reconnecting to a deeper knowing

Set in the peaceful, lush countryside near Pazin, Istria, this retreat gives you a quiet place to reconnect with your inner wisdom and step into a deeper knowing beyond your mind.

by our previous retreats

The retreats are set in beautiful places, great nature around. Alex and Richard hold the space for everybody with so much compassion and understanding, no judgement.

With their guidance I can see and feel my conditionings and patterns very clearly. It`s so refreshing. The deep meditative state induced by the Hanuman Chalisa cleaned up hidden beliefs, that had no significance any longer, and showed me more and more the real deal.  The healing is amazing, my life becomes so much more rich and true.

Alex and Richard are wonderful people, I love their retreats, so much joy and wisdom. The companionship with the other retreaters was always deep and funny and straight from the heart, beautiful.

FAQ

How do I get to Pazin / Villa Dolores? The retreat venue, Villa Dolores, is located just outside Pazin in the peaceful Istrian countryside (Srbljani area). Nearest airports: Pula Airport (PUY) ≈ 50–55 km / 35–45 minutes by car (recommended for most international arrivals). Rijeka Airport (RJK) ≈ 55–60 km / 50–70 minutes by car. From either airport, the easiest option is to rent a car (roads are good and straightforward via the Istrian "Y" motorway) or arrange a private transfer/taxi. Public buses are available but less direct (e.g., from Pula via Vodnjan to Pazin bus station, ~1.5 hours including transfers). A supermarket and basic amenities are within walking distance of the villa, so once you're here, no car is needed for the retreat itself. We recommend arriving in time for check-in from 4 pm on Saturday, May 2, 2026, so you can join the first gathering at 7 pm.

Is there a refund policy? Deposits (300 € for single rooms, 200 € per person for double/twin or dorm) are required to secure your spot and room, and are non-refundable in case of cancellation. The full balance is due by April 15, 2026. For any questions about specific circumstances or possible exceptions, please contact us directly at booking@alexandrakreis.com — we handle each case with care and understanding.

What about dietary needs? All meals are included in the full price and are prepared at the villa (which has excellent kitchen facilities). We aim to accommodate common dietary preferences such as vegetarian and vegan options — please let us know your needs when you enroll so we can plan accordingly. If you have specific allergies or other requirements, mention them in your booking email so we can ensure everything is comfortable and supportive for you.
