OCTOBER 25-31,2025
Bella Vita
A Christ Centered retreat for immersion, Sabbath (REST), and PLAY
Picture This: You, basking in the golden glow of the Italian sun on a stunning hilltop, the Adriatic coast stretching endlessly before you. Behind you, olive trees gently sway in agreement—it’s time to pause and finally make time to go ALL IN on what you were made for.
Together, we’ll be nestled between the sparkling Adriatic Sea and the breathtaking Sibillini Mountains, Le Marche is like Tuscany 40 years ago (before tourism got big). It's a postcard worthy slice of beauty and bliss.
Julie Andrews would be singing through these rolling hills and charming villages. You're about to experience AUTHENTIC ITALY for an entire week. It's time to unwind and EXPAND, babe! Benvenuta (welcome) to Italy!
You'll start each morning in a plush robe, savoring and slowly sipping your freshly brewed Italian espresso or hot tea, contemplating life’s delightful questions (...like how many gelato flavors are too many?). Yes, we’ll dive into deep, transformative work, but for now…
community and expansion
wellness + renewal + rest
daily worship + Stretch sessions
Welcome to Oliveto! We're settling into untouched Italy and you're about to experience:
We have 3 tiers for you to choose from for your Italian beauty sleep.
(More room and estate pictures can be found here)
DOUBLE MACHIATTO TIER PREMIER:
For those who crave intensity and richness, the Machiatto Tier is your perfect match. You'll wake up in a sea view suite with a private terrace where the ocean greets you every morning. It's sweet, it's bold, it's beautiful, and it kicks off your day in full luxury. CIAO CIAO!
With four rooms in this tier, you can indulge in the beauty of the sea while enjoying the comforts of luxury.
6 Spots @ $5000/per person Sea View Suite + Terrace or Balcony (3 rooms, double occupancy)
2 Spots @ $4750 per person: Sea View Balconette (1 Room, double occupancy)
Each room is available to be enjoyed SOLO for an additional $1000.
DOUBLE CAPPUCINO Tier Two:
Just like the delightful layers of a cappucino, this tier offers a balanced mix of options.
Our garden view rooms provide a cozy escape, surrounded by lush greenery and vibrant blooms.
If you want a little outdoor space, opt for one with a balcony, marked as deluxe garden suites below.
4 Spots @ $4500 per person: Deluxe Garden Suites (Full Balcony)
2 Spots @ $4250 per person: Garden Suite Plus (with Balconette)

If you love the zip of "just right" no frills, the Double Espresso Tier is for you. It offers cozy yet budget-friendly options.
This area provides a snug retreat for 2 or 3, where you can enjoy a delightful stay without overspending.
This “Anne Frank” annex is unique, clean, and spacious, with two sleeping areas. There is a king bed, as well as a twin bed area. If you don’t mind a little ceiling slope as it's in the eaves of the villa, the Double Cappuccino Suite will be perfect for your relaxation.
Attic girls’ night every night?! LET'S GO.
1 spot @ $3000: Cozy Room (Single Twin bed)
1 spot @ $3500: Annex Room (King Bed) or two can share for $3000 each.
These rooms are first come, first serve.

This retreat is where luxury, purpose, and soulful recalibration unite with sisterhood -in the most breathtaking setting imaginable. It's one of those trips that could change the course of your life.
From the moment you step into our exquisite private villas, you're met with nothing but 5-star amenities. We're talking a personal chef, your choice of pool, hot tub, sauna or spa treatment, and yes. You will feel like you are Anne Hathaway and you just accepted the title "princess of Genovia."
And just like that, the rest of the world has melted away.
But this retreat is not just about physical luxury. It's about aligning your gifts and your desires with the purpose God has placed you on Earth to accomplish.
THIS RETREAT IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU'VE BEEN PRAYING FOR.
.
This is your sacred week to reset, recharge, and reconnect with the Lord’s calling on your life. Because we only get ONE life.
Have you ever watched a sunset start to finish? Or shared late-night heart-to-hearts over sparkling water and gelato with women who get you? IT'S TIME.
Because you deserve to unwind without unplugging your ambition.
This isn’t just a retreat—it’s a sanctuary where your faith meets your purpose. You’ll walk away deeply aligned with God’s calling on your life, and recharged in every way.
Whatever you are craving—whether it’s reflection, immersion, or a mix of both—we’ve curated THIS retreat to nourish you from the inside, out.
"it is vain for you to rise up early, To stay up late, To eat the bread of sorrows; For so He gives His beloved REST." Psalm 127:2.

Why now?
If there isn't transformation, it's just another girls trip.
We will use three tools to uncover your BELLA VITA transformation. Ready?
1. IMMERSION.
2. PLAY.
3. PURPOSE.
We'll get into these more later but here's the skinny:
1. Immersion
It means ALL THE WAY IN. NOTHING FORGOTTEN. Like God's immersive love.
We've experienced all this in Hawaii in Costa Rica, and now it's time to do it in Europe. (Immersion also screams cold plunge and get ready to learn what all the hype is about.)
2. Play
When did adults get so serious?
Come learn HOW to feel fully alive again by playing and letting your hair down. RELAX.
We're inviting your inner child out to come PLAY in the hills like the VON TRAPP children (singing and tree climbing totally acceptable.)
3. Purpose
You will return home changed. With a fire in your belly to do what God made you to do. "Without vision, people perish." Proverbs 29:18
READ THAT AGAIN AND INHALE IT ALL.
And NOW it's time make your plans to step into this sacred, distraction-free space.
Speaking of sacred spaces… are you ready to pick your room?
Ready, set,
Retreat!
