Unified Track
Most retreats offer a buffet of options. We offer a single, profound arc. At The Badia, there is no parallel programming.
Every guest journeys through the same sequence of Spirit, Art, and Perspective, creating a singular, high-energy container that transforms the collective.
Internal architecture, morning transmissions, and the deep work of silent inquiry.
Jay Chodagam
Sensory awakening and creative immersion through the "Renaissance Eye."
Alessandro Esteri
Evening dialogues bridging ancient wisdom with the modern world.
The Guest Master
The Daily Rhythm
Instead of a boring schedule,
use a sophisticated timeline.
Sunrise
The Garden Practice. Silence and internal architecture.
Midday
Core Teaching. Guided inquiry in the Great Hall.
The Siesta
Mandatory rest. The luxury of doing nothing by the infinity pool.
Late Afternoon
The Alessandro Hour. Somatic work and artistic immersion.
Twilight
The Feast. Long-table Tuscan dining and the "Renaissance Dialogues."



A 10th-century sanctuary restored for modern contemplation. This is not a hotel; it is your private villa for seven days.
To ensure the intellectual and spiritual caliber of the cohort, every guest is vetted via a 15-minute alignment call.
We seek individuals ready for 'Noble Silence' and radical inquiry.
We evaluate for Spiritual Readiness, Cultural Contribution, and Aesthetic Curiosity.

The June window is the peak of the Tuscan season.
Applications for the 30 seats close March 15th.
