FAQ
Do I need a certain level of Spanish to join?
No specific level is required. The experience is designed to adapt to you, whether you're a complete beginner or already feel comfortable speaking. The goal is to meet you where you are and help you grow naturally.
Will I be traveling alone?
Many participants come on their own, and the experience is designed to create a warm and welcoming group dynamic from the very beginning.
It’s also a beautiful experience to share as a couple, with friends, or even as a family — there’s no limitation on joining as a group.
How does the airport transfer work?
Everything is taken care of for you. We work with trusted local partners who will pick you up at the airport and take you directly to the door of your hotel — and back again at the end of the retreat.
👉 You won’t have to worry about anything from the moment you arrive.
What is the group size?
Groups are intentionally small, usually around 8 people, to keep the experience personal, flexible, and deeply connected — so everyone feels seen and supported.
What is included in the price?
The retreat includes accommodation, breakfast, transportation, activities, and daily Spanish sessions. Everything is designed so you can fully focus on the experience.
What does a typical immersion day look like?
Each day begins gently, with a wellness session to ground you and connect with the rhythm of the island.
After a relaxed breakfast, we move into a Spanish session designed to support you in the experiences of the day — giving you the tools, confidence, and language you’ll naturally use as everything unfolds.
From there, the day opens into shared moments, activities, and spontaneous conversations, where Spanish becomes part of the experience rather than something separate from it.
Do I need to arrange my own accommodation?
No, everything is taken care of for you. The retreat price includes your accommodation in a luxury beachfront hotel, daily breakfast, all transportation, and the activities we’ll do together.
Our goal is to offer you a complete immersive experience, so you can relax and fully focus on enjoying and learning Spanish.
Can I extend or shorten my stay or the course?
If you fall in love with the island and would like to stay longer, Nuri can help you extend your hotel stay depending on availability.
However, shortening the retreat is not possible. The experience is carefully designed as a complete 5-day, 4-night immersion journey, where each activity, class, and shared moment builds upon the previous one. Leaving earlier would affect both your personal experience and the group dynamic, making it difficult to fully benefit from the transformation and language immersion the retreat is created to offer.
