About us
Shakti Retreats
A dream come true
When two dreamers meet, anything can happen.
And so it was for us, Manuela and Marco: in our endless desire for discovery and travel, we decided to chase a dream and give life to Shakti Retreats, in the magnificent city of Alghero,
In Sardinia, a land rich in history and natural wonders, we wanted to create a little paradise, where you can experience a true connection with nature and with the deepest part of you. We want to offer you a truly transformative journey, a vacation of relax in our enchanting villa, immersed in the peace of the island.
