We had a great time. Wonderful people, great food, and nice accommodations. The agenda and writing retreat put together by Creative Connections was amazing. I would do this writing retreat at this location again!
I did, however, lose out on a day and a half of this retreat due to the weather and the cancellation of ferries. This was no fault of the facility since they can't control the weather. It was a little odd that they checked me out early because I had to catch an earlier ferry. I didn't ask to check out, especially since I had already paid for the accommodations. When I asked about this, the front office staff told me that my room was no longer available, even though no boats were coming in, and I would have to room with other people on my retreat and pay an additional fee to do that. Strange.

This trip was magical. Meeting Robyn and Liz was a once in a lifetime opportunity. Being able to call them friends by the end of the week is more than I could have ever asked for. This adventure was amazing in every way. Jonas and Rania were so welcoming and caring. The resort was gorgeous and I couldn’t get enough of the Chicken souvlaki. I ordered it 4 times for lunch!! Add in Chris Colmenero and an amazing group of fellow readers to the batch and it was perfect. I left with a lot of new friends and an even longer TBR list. I’m so glad I took the leap to do this trip. I will never forget this opportunity and can’t wait to hopefully go back to Amorgos again. It’s a magical place. Thank you Imagine Retreats.

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!!
