A Sanctuary of Wellness Where Ancient Wisdom Meets Modern Healing
Nestled in the serene hills of Mystras, near the UNESCO World Heritage site of ancient Sparta, Euphoria Retreat offers a transformative journey into holistic well-being. Founded by Marina Efraimoglou in 2018, the retreat blends ancient Greek healing philosophies with Traditional Chinese Medicine, creating a sanctuary where guests can rejuvenate both body and spirit.
Euphoria Retreat is a 45-room wellness resort set amidst the fragrant pine forests of the Peloponnese. Its design draws inspiration from Byzantine architecture, featuring domed ceilings and arched corridors that evoke a sense of timeless tranquility.
The retreat’s philosophy, known as the Euphoria Methodos, integrates the Five Elements—water, wood, fire, earth, and metal—into its treatments and architecture, aiming to restore balance and harmony to guests’ lives.
