Imagine Greece exceeded our expectations in every way. We partnered with them for a spiritual retreat in Greece, and our guide Jonas proved to be so much more than a logistics coordinator. Behind the scenes, Jonas navigated some genuinely challenging hotel logistics with professionalism and grace — the kind of problem-solving that makes or breaks a group trip. But what truly set him apart was how naturally he became part of our group. He laughed with us, embraced our spirit of love and joy, and showed up with an open heart throughout the entire journey. For a retreat rooted in connection and community, having a guide who honors that energy made all the difference. We would wholeheartedly recommend Imagine Greece to any group looking for a travel partner who brings both competence and genuine warmth to the experience. We looking forward to joining with them again for another travel adventure.

Thank you beyond words, Pam. It was an honor to work with you, and a pleasure to spend such a wonderful, enlightening time with your group. Already looking forward to the next time. Blessings, Jonas

A magical retreat I didn’t want to leave! Jonas, Rania and the team at Lakki Village created a wonderful immersive experience filled with creativity, kindness and positivity. The masterclasses were fantastic, Jonas generously shared his deep insight, offering leading edge perspectives to elevate our writing. Alongside Rania, he also provided valuable guidance on pathways to publishing. Each day we enjoyed time to write, reflect and explore the island with our generous and informative hosts. The property is amazing, I swam in the sea out front every day. I cannot wait to return, with gratitude Ingrid, Sydney Australia šŸ™ā˜€ļøšŸ’•

It was great! I learned a lot during the workshops, and enjoyed meeting Jonas and Rania and the participants. The accommodations were comfortable and spacious, but it should be noted that the advertised outdoor walking trails turned out to be mostly private property and were thus inaccessible. We very much enjoyed the chef-prepared meals despite the surprise that we would only be eating vegetarian meals throughout the week. Waking up to various birdsong in the mornings was very special, and overall the setting was peaceful and lovely. It even got warm enough for a dip in the pool! All in all, it was a very special retreat in a beautiful country setting, and I am looking forward to applying what I learned.

This was one of the best trips I’ve taken. All of the people were so open and easy to talk to. It was incredible to be able to connect with people with the same interests and passions. The excursions were so amazing and thoughtful. It was clear they wanted to balance out sight-seeing/ holiday with the productive workshop so that we enjoy both. The location was extremely relaxing and I didn’t feel overwhelmed with tourists. It was clear that Jonas and Rania have a passion for literature. They were so overwhelmingly eager to help everyone succeed. I left feeling so inspired to work on my novel with the guidance and insider knowledge I never would have had otherwise. The trip far exceeded my expectations at every turn and I can’t wait for the next one!

Thank you Jonas Saul and Rania Stone from Imagine Greece Retreats for our outstanding Writing retreat 2025. My sincerest thanks for your tuition, mentorship and friendship … and for bringing us together in picturesque Tolo, to develop our knowledge and writing skills. I feel like I'm finally standing on solid ground for sinking my teeth into my writing, from the basics of style guides, to editing, to creation tension on the page, to great dialogue, leveraging social media to find readers and engage with them and so much more. I will treasure the invaluable industry insights you have shared with us ... and the new connections I've made amongst other authors. If you're on the fence... stuck with your early writing journey or career, I strongly recommend you consider joining an Imagine Greece Retreat with Jonas and Rania... their guidance, unwavering enthusiasm and energy for writing will certainly inspire and equip you, to get started, gain momentum and achieve your dreams!

I attended the Retreat, hosted by Jonas and Rania in October 2024 as part of my solo holiday and as a way to kickstart my aspirational writing career. After a lot of various last minute changes, not least the ferries going on strike, everything worked out for the better in the end. Overall it was a wonderful experience in the magical island of Amorgos. The scenery was spectacular, the Greek hospitality was exemplary and the food was delicious at Lakki Village. It was like being part of an extended Greek family (even the cats and dogs were welcoming). The course participants were also friendly and i made long lasting friendships there. Most importantly, I was inspired by the classes and wish I could have stayed longer in Amorgos (had to leave on the 26th itself). With encouragement from both, I came out equipped and confident to start writing more and losing the fear in the process. I am hoping to be able to attend more of these retreats next year in Greece :)

What an amazing trip to Amorgos, Greece for the Psychological Thriller Readers Retreat. Hosted by the legendary Authors Jonas Saula and Rania Stone, I was delighted by this little corner of paradise. The hotel resort was lovely in its complete and modern rooms, ground amenities, dining options, the pool area and bar. Lena the bartender was superb. Rania's family owns and runs the resort. So friendly and inviting this family was, I could not ask for more. The resort is located right on the beach. I started my mornings with tea and breakfast and a glorious beach view. It does not get better than that. The retreat schedule of events was just right. Something fascinating to experience each day with plenty of time to explore or chill as you like. Jonas is the perfect host with knowledge, humor, energy enough for everyone. The author guests were accessible and engaging, even those we met via Zoom. It was thrilling to learn about their beginnings, writing styles, publishing and all. AND, oh the giveaways! The retreat swag is top notch. I truly enjoyed this experience and am looking forward to a return trip. I highly recommend this retreat experience.

We did the Reading Retreat in Amorgos June 2024, and it was fabulous!! The island, the venue, the food, the events—everything was perfect! It was so helpful to have Imagine Greece Retreats coordinate all arrangements, and they were readily available to answer questions. If you love reading and want to experience Greece, this is the way to do it!!
