    About Sana Sana - Wellness Retreat in Teulada, Spain

    A sacred space for healing, growth, and reconnection with your authentic self

    Sana Sana Retreat was born from the friendship of two men with one shared mission: help people live healthier, happier lives. What began in 2014 has grown into a sanctuary where thousands have recharged, reset, and rediscovered themselves.

    Jeroen, your warm-hearted host and wellness guide, and Gareth, our culinary creative, create an atmosphere that feels like home - but better. Here, you're not just a guest. You're part of our extended family.

    We believe transformation happens when nature, nourishment, movement, and connection come together. That's what makes Sana Sana unique - a retreat built from the heart, designed for your mind, body, and soul.

    Our Story at Sana Sana Retreat

    The Story Behind Sana Sana

    Living in Spain has always been a dream for both of us so finding a new name for our business that embraced the name and culture of the country we call home, as well as our ethos of balanced, healthy living, was important.

    The name Sana Sana comes from a simple Spanish phrase often spoken with care - "Sana, sana, colita de rana…" - a childhood rhyme meaning "Heal, heal, little frog's tail…" and is often said to comfort a child after a bump or a bruise.

    It's a phrase that speaks to something we all need at every age - gentle reassurance, the soothing power of presence, and the quiet knowing that we're already beginning to heal.

    At Sana Sana, we carry this spirit into everything we do. Healing doesn't always come from doing more. Sometimes, it comes from slowing down, listening to your body, being surrounded by nature, nourishing yourself, and feeling truly cared for.

    Sana Sana is a space where you can reconnect with yourself - without pressure or expectation. A place where you're free to rest, move, reflect, and begin again.

    Because real wellbeing starts with a simple truth - you deserve to feel whole.
