The Planeta Resort

La Foresteria

La Foresteria Wine Resort stands on a green hill with a splendid view over the countryside near Menfi, representing the nature and style of the Planeta family’s hospitality.

The resort is immersed in a harmonious expanse of vineyards and olive groves, and welcomes those who wish to enjoy a holiday in a peaceful oasis between the beautiful Sicilian coast and the calm of the country.

The scent of the herbs surrounding the wine resort enrich the dishes from our kitchen, a treasure house of flavours from a territory of excellent wine.

They are designed to build up on each other, that at the end of the retreat, you will have learned many key elements that are a total game changer when it comes to movement, finding ease and relaxation and the great magic tool called breath.

At the end of this retreat, you will also receive a certificate of having completed my “breath-body-connection” retreat course.
