Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Petunia Hotel, overlooking the mystical Es Vedrà , this retreat blends luxury, connection, and pure rejuvenation in one of Ibiza’s most enchanting locations. 

We’re beyond excited to invite you to our next retreat, Pause and Play, hosted by The Connected Collective in partnership with Paper Plane Travel, taking place from Sunday, 4th May to Thursday, 8th May 2025.

Pause & Play

My invitation to you...

From soul-nourishing wellness practices to unforgettable moments under the stars, this retreat is designed to leave you feeling rejuvenated and inspired. I promise you, this one will live rent free
in your mind, forever. 




Nestled on Ibiza’s serene southwest coast, Petunia Hotel is a tranquil retreat away from the island’s busier hubs. The whitewashed casitas, adorned with vibrant bougainvillaea, exude charm and offer stunning views of the Balearic Sea and the iconic Es Vedrà. With interiors designed by Argentinian artist Lula Galeano, the hotel combines boutique elegance with artistic flair. Guests can enjoy wholesome cuisine crafted from local ingredients, many sourced directly from the hotel’s own garden, all while embracing sustainable luxury aligned with mindful living.

Your Days of
Pause & Play

Imagine waking up to sun-soaked mornings, the sound of waves in the distance, and Ibiza’s serene energy.

Begin your Morning Bliss with yoga overlooking Es Vedrà or SUP Yoga at Cala Escondido, followed by a delicious beachside breakfast. Embrace Afternoon Serenity by unwinding at the pool, indulging in holistic spa treatments, or exploring the charm of Ibiza’s Old Town. As the day transitions to Evening Connection, enjoy restorative yin yoga, cacao ceremonies at sunset, starlit dining with a chilled glass of rosé, heartfelt conversations, and an outdoor cinema night overlooking Es Vedrà.

"The bonds I formed with these women are something I will cherish forever..." 

The bonds I formed with these women are something I will cherish forever... hard to believe they were complete strangers 4 days ago. Now it feels like I'm leaving with a wonderful new group of friends. The stunning Alila Bay could not have been a more perfect place for a retreat - truly embodying the essence of a sanctuary. Grateful and inspired by this beautiful journey and it will live rent free in my memory forever. 

"That was the first time I truly believed in taking care of myself".

I just wanted to say thank you for giving me the opportunity to attend the Reset & Renew retreat... That was the first time I truly believed in taking care of myself and I owe this all to you as to where I am today. 

"It seriously feels like a dream! So grateful for these past 3 days".

"We have the left the retreat.. but the retreat has not left us!"

We have already sold a number of the rooms to prior retreat guests and TCC members so if you are wanting to come - please do not delay in booking as this will sell out fast!
