The Boutique Lifestyle Lodging Association (BLLA) is proud to announce the successful completion of its first retreat in collaboration with Conscious Souls of Hospitality. Held from April 7th to 11th in a stunning location on the Spanish island of Ibiza, the event marked an important fusion of spirituality and hospitality, focusing on the roots of true health.
Hosted by BLLA’s own Ariela Kirajian and co-host Caroline Legrand, this retreat explores the profound concept that hotels cannot truly be conscious unless the decision-makers themselves embody consciousness. It was done. With this philosophy at the forefront, the event provided a platform for deep conversations around regenerative practices, sustainability, and the nature of conscious living.
Attendees participated in wellness activities such as somatic yoga flows and a traditional tea ceremony, highlighting the retreat’s commitment to holistic health. The gathering also featured hospitality industry insights through exclusive tours of notable properties such as Finca Can Marti, Aguamadera Ibiza, Six Senses Ibiza, Unio Ibiza Hotel and The Standard Ibiza. These tours provided a valuable learning experience and a glimpse into the practical application of sustainability in the hospitality industry.
This retreat featured renowned facilitators who brought depth and expertise to these discussions. Among them are Renu Kashyap from Ibiza Bohemia, David Murin from Six Senses Ibiza, healer Elaine Mary Collins, tea ceremony facilitator Alexia Panay, Lara Davies from Ibiza Retreat, and veteran Villa They included host Anke Reiss and Dawn Hindle of Pikes Hotel.
Personal chef Blanca Stanczuk expertly catered to the culinary needs, creating nutritious and flavorful meals that complemented the immersive experience. Guests were provided with fresh juices in the morning, followed by a hearty breakfast, lunch, and assorted dinner.
