The somewhat elevated location of the Eco Lodge "Home of Silence" ensures breathtaking views over the mountains to the Temple of Apollo and the Ionian Sea with its extensive beaches. On different terraces there are sun loungers for reading, a yoga platform and a refreshing pool. Nature dictates the structure of the property and no interventions have been made that would harm nature. In addition, the lodge is completely supplied with solar energy and spring water.
The Home of Silence Yoga & Meditation Lodge was opened in 2017 and expanded until 2020. After a week of relaxing yoga holidays, Silvio Perpmer spontaneously took over the Eco Lodge and created an unusual retreat for body and soul. Between sky, sea and mountains there is above all a lot of space for rest and relaxation.
Living (together) takes place out here. An open kitchen invites you to linger. The joint dinner is wonderfully informal. Ulli is passionate about cooking healthy and regional delicacies. In addition to the single rooms in the main building, there are three lodges and three glamping tents in the garden. All decorated with light natural materials, quality futon beds and colorful plaids. Beautiful sculptures and cozy places with hammocks to unwind are distributed over the entire property.
Surrounded by beautiful nature and full of cultural offerings in the vicinity, there really is something for everyone; Sunrise yoga on the beach, meditation session in the twilight hour, lounging by the pool and touring ancient sites and excavations. Here thoughts are still and life wonderfully colourful.
