In September, when Formentera returns to a more leisurely pace after the summer, the island will host a wellness retreat designed for a group of just twelve participants. From 17 to 20 September 2026, Carolina López-Tejero will lead an experience at Dunas de Formentera that will combine mindful movement, immersive practices and moments of tranquillity overlooking the Mediterranean.
The programme has been designed by Gannet, a boutique agency specialising in bespoke travel and experiences, and offers an approach to luxury centred on privacy, time and self-care. Over four days, participants will be able to step away from their daily routines and reconnect with their bodies and minds in a natural setting characterised by the island’s serenity.
The programme will be led by Carolina López-Tejero, founder of SWAN, a psychologist, certified yoga and Pilates instructor, and nutrition coach. For over a decade, she has developed her own method that integrates strength, mobility, balance and fluidity with the aim of improving posture, strengthening the body and promoting a more mindful lifestyle.
The SWAN Method combines disciplines such as yoga, Pilates, ballet and functional movement through low-impact exercises. Its approach prioritises body awareness over extreme intensity and views wellbeing as a sustainable practice that goes beyond physical training.
The programme will include daily sessions led by López-Tejero, immersive activities and an activity designed especially for the group. The stay includes three nights’ accommodation at Dunas de Formentera, daily breakfast, selected lunches and dinners, arrival and departure transfers, and welcome amenities.
With a small group format and a programme focused on striking a balance between exercise, rest and the natural surroundings, the retreat offers a more leisurely and personalised way to discover Formentera.
