Aegialis Hotel & Spa
Amorgos Island, Greece
A once-in-a-lifetime retreat experience on a Greek island that feels like a movie… because it is.
Join us for the next chapter of the most soul-awakening women’s retreat in the world.
This is not a holiday. It’s a homecoming.
UGWA 2026 isn’t your average women’s retreat.
It’s a week that shifts you. That brings you back to the truth of who you are. That reminds you how it feels to be fully seen, wildly inspired, and deeply connected—to yourself, to your purpose, and to a global sisterhood of women doing the work of becoming.
This time, we are heading of to the island of Amorgos in Greece.
Think: Mamma Mia energy, Aegean Sea views, ABBA nights, ancient healing waters, and the kind of joy that lives in your body for years to come.
What Others Say - Elizabeth Gilbert
“I had a most marvellous time at The Ultimate Girls Week Away. It was a true moment of communion to be able to spend time in paradise with so many diverse, extraordinary, brave, and searching women.
Over the course of the week, we all took turns playing the role of teachers, students, healers, role models. I will never forget my time in this powerful gathering space!”
♡ LG - Fiji, February 2020
A week that changes everything
The Ultimate Girls Week Away is more than a holiday — it’s a global gathering of women who are ready to reconnect, recharge, and rediscover their joy. For seven days, you step out of the noise of everyday life and into a space designed for deep rest, real connection, and big dreams. It’s about pressing pause on what drains you and pressing play on what lights you up.
What makes UGWA unforgettable
At UGWA, you’ll meet women from across the world who celebrate you exactly as you are. You’ll hear from inspiring voices whose stories will stay in your heart forever. You’ll create memories in moments both big and small: sunrise swims, shared laughter over meals, late-night conversations under the stars. And in 2026, you’ll do it all in Amorgos, Greece — a place as magical as the experience itself.
Why it matters now more than ever
In today’s world, it’s easy to feel pulled in a hundred directions at once. UGWA offers a rare chance to pause, reflect, and remember who you are beneath the busyness. It’s one week that will fill you with inspiration, clarity, and a sense of belonging that follows you home. This is more than a retreat — it’s a chance to return to yourself and carry that energy into the rest of your life.
What You’ll Feel
From the moment you arrive, you’ll feel a sense of exhale—the kind of relief that comes when the world slows down and you finally have permission to just be.
Surrounded by breath taking beauty, laughter, and sisterhood, you’ll feel nurtured, supported, and celebrated.
Expect waves of joy, moments of deep reflection, and the kind of soulful connection that reminds you of who you truly are.
What You’ll Do
You’ll immerse yourself in:
Daily workshops and wisdom sessions with world-class speakers, thought leaders, and incredible facilitators who will take you on a journey from creativity to mind shifting tools.
Nourishing experiences—from yoga and meditation to cultural adventures and unforgettable evenings filled with music and connection.
Wellness rituals—spa time, movement, and practices designed to align your body, mind, and spirit.
Community building—sharing stories, meals, and magic with women from around the globe who feel like instant family.
Joyful surprises—from Greek nights and dancing, to quiet conversations on balconies overlooking the sea.
It’s the perfect mix of inspiration, adventure, rest, and play.
You’ll Walk Away With
When you leave UGWA, you’ll walk away with:
A full heart—carrying memories of laughter, tears, and the profound connections you’ve made.
New clarity—about your life, your dreams, and what it means to live fully and unapologetically.
Practical tools—insights and wisdom from the workshops and speakers that you can integrate into your daily life.
Lasting sisterhood—a circle of women who understand you, cheer for you, and stay with you long after the retreat ends.
A renewed sense of self—the version of you that feels alive, strong, and ready for whatever comes next.
Dear Amazing Women of the World,
If you’re reading this, there’s a part of you that’s already yearning for something more — more connection, more meaning, more you. It’s welcome here.
UGWA began as a dream — a vision of women coming together not just to rest or escape, but to truly come home to themselves and each other. Over the years, it’s grown into something far bigger and more powerful than I could have imagined. And yet, no matter how many women gather or how far we travel, one thing never changes…the magic of the UGWA Experience.
One of the most magical parts of UGWA happens when no one is performing, and everything just is. It’s in the laughter that erupts over breakfast, the quiet support offered in a shared glance, and the unexpected friendships that form in the space between workshops. As the retreat unfolds, there’s this breath taking moment — again and again — where I get to step back and witness it all: women connecting, healing, and simply being together. These aren’t just highlights; they’re the heartbeat of UGWA. And in 2026, on the sun-drenched island of Amorgos, we’ll do it all over again — with even more soul, sparkle, and sisterhood.
If your heart is calling you to be part of something unforgettable, this is your invitation. Come as you are. Bring your stories, your hopes, your exhaustion, your joy. There’s a place for you here.
I can’t wait to welcome you in Greece.
See you in Greece,
