A STORIED VILLAGE. A STORIED SEA. A STORIED WEEK.
Tucked into the storied village of Deià — a haven for poets, painters, and artists for centuries — our retreat unfolds at a five-star Belmond hotel where the Tramuntana mountains plunge dramatically into the Mediterranean. Sunrise yoga over the sea. Cliffside hikes once walked by painters, ending at hidden Mallorcan picnics. Mornings wandering the open-air markets of Deià and Sóller. A dreamy afternoon aboard a luxury catamaran. A hands-on paella class with regional wines. The historic wooden train winding through orange groves to Port Sóller. And evenings of cocktails, candlelight, and Michelin-starred dinners by celebrated regional chefs.
OUR HOTEL
FOR THE WEEK
We're thrilled to host our retreat at La Residencia, a Belmond Hotel — a five-star haven perched between the sea and mountains in the storybook village of Deià. Once beloved by Princess Diana, this iconic property is known for its deep connection to the arts, lush terraced gardens, and panoramic views of the Tramuntana range.
Art-filled suites with private terraces, a world-class spa tucked among olive trees, and three exquisite restaurants — including the Michelin-starred El Olivo. The serene fitness pavilion, tennis courts, and easy walk into Deià's vibrant cultural scene make this a place that feels both blissfully secluded and effortlessly alive.

DAILY ITINERARY
A Mallorca Dreamscape
A sample itinerary—subject to slight changes as the magic unfolds.
-
DAY 1
Arrival & Sunset Welcome
Settle into paradise. After check-in, unwind at your own pace and meet us on the green lawn as golden hour falls over Deià. Craft cocktails, local canapés, and live music beneath the olive trees. As night sets in, we gather for a celebratory welcome dinner on property — a perfect introduction to the flavors of the island.
-
DAY 2
Coastal Trails & Hidden Picnic
Wake to the golden light of Mallorca and begin with a grounding yoga practice overlooking the Mediterranean, the Tramuntana mountains at your back. After breakfast, we embark on a breathtaking guided hike along the Cami de Pintors — an iconic cliffside trail once walked by poets and painters — ending in a secluded location where a traditional Mallorcan picnic awaits. Tonight, we gather off-property for a warm, elegant dinner at a charming local restaurant filled with art.
-
DAY 3
Roam & Restore: Deià Market Day
Today is market day in our charming village of Deià — a perfect opportunity to wander the open-air stalls and explore at your own pace. The day is yours: hike to a scenic overlook, book a spa treatment, paint with the artists in residence, or simply settle into the easy rhythm of slow Mallorcan living. In the evening, we gather back together for a relaxed group dinner.
-
DAY 4
Paella, Wine & Mallorcan Flavors
After morning yoga, we head out for a hands-on paella cooking class at Ava Vi winery, paired with a relaxed regional wine tasting. Expect laughter, shared tables, and the simple joy of cooking and eating together in one of the island's most picturesque settings. Tonight, dinner is on your own at La Residencia — three on-property restaurants to choose from at your own pace.
-
Day 5
Seas the Day
Begin the morning with energizing yoga, a HIIT class, or both, followed by a leisurely breakfast on property. After breakfast, we head out for a spectacular coastal boat excursion — sailing along Mallorca's dramatic shoreline with time to swim, soak in the views, and enjoy a relaxed onboard spread as the day unfolds on the water. The evening is yours: dinner on your own in the village, or arrange a transfer to a nearby town for a memorable night out.
-
DAY 6
Sóller Market, Port Sóller & White Night Gala
Our final full day. We venture to the historic town of Sóller to wander its luminous open-air market, then board the famed wooden train that winds through orange groves and down to Port de Sóller for a leisurely seaside lunch. In the evening, we close the retreat with our White Night Gala at El Olivo — La Residencia's Michelin-starred restaurant — a beautiful, candlelit finale of regional flavors, heartfelt toasts, and one last toast to the week. Come dressed in your finest whites.
-
DAY 7
Soft Goodbyes
Wake slowly and savor your final Mallorcan breakfast — coffee in hand, mountain views in sight. Whether you're heading home or off to your next adventure, you'll leave with a nourished body, a full heart, and a deep sense of connection. While the retreat may end, the community we've created will carry on.

Meet Your Host
After 15 years in corporate leadership — while teaching yoga, coaching speakers, and building community-rooted nonprofits — I felt called to bring it all together. That's how LDW Coaching & Retreats began.
These retreats are thoughtfully designed to offer more than just a beautiful escape. They're a return to what matters most — rooted in presence, beauty, and connection, and built to create space for rest, growth, and meaningful community.
Whether we're flowing on a yoga mat, sharing a meal, or watching the sun set over the Mediterranean, my hope is simple: that you leave feeling more grounded, more connected, and more yourself.

THE FAQS
-
All guests should fly into Palma de Mallorca Airport (PMI), the island's main international airport. From there, La Residencia is approximately 40–45 minutes by car. The hotel is happy to arrange private transfers upon request, or you can easily call a local taxi or request an Uber. Once on the road, enjoy a scenic drive through Mallorca's countryside as you make your way to the enchanting village of Deià.
-
Early October in Mallorca: warm, mild days (highs around 75°F / 24°C) and cool evenings (lows around 60°F / 16°C). Plenty of sunshine with a touch more rain than the summer months — pack a light layer for evenings and you're set.
-
Comfortable layers for yoga and movement, activewear for hikes and excursions, a swimsuit and cover-up for the boat day, and relaxed-yet-elevated outfits for evenings out. A light jacket or wrap is recommended for cooler mountain evenings, and comfortable walking shoes are a must. Don't forget your sun protection, a good book, and anything that helps you feel grounded and at ease. Yoga mats are provided on property; no need to bring your own.
-
Your 50% deposit is non-refundable and non-transferrable. The full-cancellation deadline is July 6, 2027 — cancellations after that date are non-refundable. We've designed this retreat to be almost entirely all-inclusive, with the property and all excursions privatized and booked well in advance, and our cancellation policy reflects the limited space and long lead time required.
-
Any and all dietary restrictions can be accommodated. We work closely with the property's chef to curate a menu special to our group, and the same goes for outings where meals are provided. Just let Lindsay know in advance and she'll coordinate with the team.
-
Europe as a whole is not a heavy tipping culture, but our local guides work with American travelers and have come to appreciate tips. If you feel inclined, plan to tip your drivers, bellman, and wait staff while off-property.
-
We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance for international trips to protect your investment against flight delays, lost luggage, and medical emergencies abroad. If you'd like a recommendation, I work with Sharon Creasy at Elevation Travel: sharon@elevtionstvl.com | 404-626-4997.
