This is a location where tradition and modernity blend to create a unique experience of well-being and inner rebirth, just 30 minutes from Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport.
Immersed in the wild beauty of Sardinia, it is the perfect center for retreats and workshops, an environment designed to facilitate a return to oneself and a connection with the surrounding nature.
Events, courses, workshops, and residential retreats have been organized for Alessandro Baricco’s Scuola Holden, the international school of Metamedicine, masterclasses with trainers such as Claudia Rainville and Yvan Herin, Igor Sibaldi, Marta Pastorino, Sabine Wendt, Eleonora Sottili, Antonella Paiano, Cristina Benefico, Celeste Piazza, Guillermo Quiroz, Hermano Ichhu, and many others.
In the heart of nature, you can experience themes of research and innovation, personal growth, and professional evolution.
We offer intimate and personalized retreats, thanks to the peaceful atmosphere and small-group activities, with the possibility of one-to-one meetings as well, in the private spaces.
Far from the chaos of the city, in greenery and tranquility, we organize workshops, training activities, and events in a privileged atmosphere that supports the achievement of every goal.
The success of an event depends just as much on the context in which it is lived!
Our architecture is a tribute to Sardinian tradition, and the first thing that strikes those who arrive is the timeless beauty of the chosen materials: stone and wood, which together tell centuries of history and traditions. Stone, strong and solid, represents the strength and resilience of this land. Every wall, carefully crafted with traditional techniques, carries with it the charm of ancient Sardinian homes, able to blend perfectly with the surrounding nature.
Wood, instead, is chosen to give warmth and harmony to the spaces. Exposed beams and natural wooden structures create a welcoming atmosphere that recalls the island’s typical homes, inviting anyone who enters to relax and let go.
Every detail is designed to celebrate authentic Sardinia, that for centuries has been home to peoples who lived in harmony with the land and respecting the rhythms of nature.
At the same time, we know that well-being also comes from the beauty and lightness of the space we are in, which is why the new panoramic rooms were designed to offer an immersive and innovative experience.
The large panoramic windows that frame the rooms are not just a window onto nature: they are an invitation to connect with it, to feel part of a landscape that stretches without boundaries.
An environment designed for healing and deep well-being
This place was conceived to facilitate physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.
The spaces, harmonious and welcoming, are designed to create an atmosphere of peace that encourages deep relaxation. Each panoramic room is filled with natural light filtering through the large windows, offering a complete view of the wild, unspoiled nature.
Every retreat and workshop becomes a journey that respects the rhythms of nature and the cycles of the day: the panoramic rooms, strategically facing the Sardinian landscape, allow participants to see the sunrise gently lighting up the mountains and the sunset coloring the sky with warm, enveloping shades.
This constant visual contact with nature helps participants rediscover a deep connection with themselves and with the surrounding environment.
Founded as an exclusive refuge for intrepid explorers of the human universe, this Sanctuary of the soul is a place of being and its expression, able to spark concrete shifts in perspective.
A refined location in a strategic position for retreats, workshops, training moments, and niche ceremonies, thirty minutes from Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport.
Choosing this as a place for a retreat or workshop means harnessing the natural energy of this land to amplify the effects of practices and natural healing.
Every breath is infused with Sardinia’s pure, fragrant air, and every moment spent in this magical place becomes an opportunity to find yourself again, to let go of worries, and to reconnect with your true essence.
This location, beyond offering breathtaking views, is charged with a primordial energy that facilitates the process of healing and rebirth.
The silence that envelops the property is broken only by the sounds of nature, allowing participants to immerse themselves in an atmosphere of peace and tranquility, ideal for releasing tension.
There is within you a great potential for listening, creativity, and innovation that is asking to be explored: Essenza responds to this primary need of the ever-evolving human being, offering spaces and pathways, including outdoors, for personal exploration in complete freedom.
Just some words written by those who took part in a retreat here:
“I thank you from the bottom of my heart, with tired arms and a heart full of gratitude and joy for yesterday’s gathering! I thank each and every one of you for the trust, the patience, and the dedication 🌿 It’s not easy to build your own drum, but beyond the satisfaction, you’ll feel it will vibrate with what you’ve sown!“
Celeste
“Yesterday was a fantastic day, compliments on the wonderful place you’ve created—stunning landscapes and a beautiful aesthetic. You can see all the care and passion you put into it…“
Doris
“The energy truly began to move, and even now it’s still with me… I’m enchanted by this deep connection and I’m joyful for this experience I lived… guided, accompanied by a wonderful flow of energy… deeply grateful to Life for this experience, and thank you as well for being part of it…“
Rosy
“Another unforgettable experience has come to an end in the magical setting of Essenza in Sardinia. A passionate group—engaged, open to listening, and to discovering a new paradigm of being—made the journey back to essence, to what truly matters: love for oneself, caring for the most delicate and precious part, one’s inner child. I thank Valeria, who makes us feel at home and offers us so much beauty and expertise. For the brothers and sisters living on Sardinian soil, and for anyone who wishes to take a journey within the journey, gifting themselves a stay on this beautiful island.”
Antonella
“Endless thanks again from the bottom of my heart for Sunday—for the energy, the place, and the welcome“
Stefania
“Before the workshop, I arrived there carrying such a load of stress, physical and emotional exhaustion—I felt a bit like there was no way out, because of a situation I was going through. The only doubt I had before signing up was about money, but of course it’s worth every single bit, because during the masterclass I discovered so many things—really so, so many—each one more beautiful than the last. Maybe the main thing I discovered is that I could truly feel well again. If I look at myself on the day I arrived and the day I left, it feels like I’m dealing with another person, because in some way I became lighter—I shed layers of pain that I was able to bring out and release. The place is truly wonderful; you can breathe in an incredible energy. You really feel at peace with the world. For me it was a truly magnificent, illuminating, positive experience from every point of view. For three days I was truly in a perfect bubble of world. Thank you again.“

Here you can live a complete experience made of commitment, reflection, and leisure: only in this way can you give your best and allow yourself the time to make an evolutionary leap, enjoying an intimate, natural atmosphere.
The panoramic view over the greenery, the valley, and the sea on the horizon facilitates meetings, interactions among people, and the sharing of important messages.
The architecture, with its distinctive shapes and proportions, makes this a small natural universe, designed and cared specifically to be home to valuable group experiences: the property, together with the perfect location and the vibrancy of the surrounding nature, is an orchestra created from the heart to exist at the center of the Mediterranean and to keep playing, endlessly…
This is the place to live nature and your finest talents, the place to reach a level of human and professional maturation never experienced elsewhere.
A tailor-made evolutionary lab where the human beings of the future are shaped—people more respectful of the environment and more adaptable to the evolving professional landscape.
That’s why Essenza is not only an open residence where you can spend time with other professionals and learn to be masters of yourselves, but a new idea of humanity.
This place was created for: great thinkers, border jumpers, myth busters, inveterate experimenters, high spirits and lovers of freedom, expert dreamers and great visionaries, life’s bettors, warriors of wonder…
our hospitality
The 6 pillars of our Center
Freedom and flexibility first: because your every need or desire is the North Star around which our professionalism revolves. We follow your pace, your dynamism, and your tastes, so that you never have to settle.
Care for every detail of each “tailor-made” event: because when your desires become reality, then you can truly reach your personal and professional goal without limits.
An intimate atmosphere and informal moments: because our desire is to bring people closer, create complicity and solidarity. Professional efficiency grows with interpersonal efficiency.
Panoramic views and outdoor activities: so you can be far more efficient than you believed you could be. Feel at the peak of your vitality, immersed in lush nature, with a free mind while we take care of everything.
Time and space for moments of relaxation and playful activities: because with more human rhythms and regenerating breaks, you learn and work better. The performance of the brain in a positive, relaxed state is 31% higher than that of a brain in a stressed or neutral state.
A residential dimension that strengthens “team spirit”: because nothing can consolidate the group and increase its effectiveness like gathering in the evening, under the starry sky or around the flame of candles. The circular suites in stone and wood will make it possible to start work on time and well rested—fresh and receptive.

If you are looking for a special place for your next retreat or workshop, this corner of Sardinia is ready to welcome you for an experience you will hardly forget.

“L’Essenza is a fantastic place immersed in nature where it is possible to immerse yourself in the atmospheres of another time. We felt wonderful and at ease, relaxed; Marina and Valeria, with their welcome, made us feel at home, as among people we have known for a long time—right away we felt integrated into this magical and beautiful strip of Sardinian land where it is very easy to feel the presence of the elements of nature. And what can we say about the courses organized by L’Essenza? Simply superb!! The only sour note… we would have liked to stay longer! Until next time…”

“Essence found again. A Nuragic structure with a square-plan layout, that dominates the sea and the mountains. Here there is the essence of sacred hospitality toward whoever knocks at the door. A welcoming environment, rich in soft colors and essential fragrances that, different in every space, wrap you in a mystical aerosol. It’s the second time we’ve spent a few days here and we already feel the need to recharge with energy. EVERYTHING is excellent, thank you…”
Luciana

“Throwing open a window onto senses dulled by city life: breathing in the scent of juniper in the welcome of a delightful green pinnettu carefully prepared for us, listening to the chirping of the night in the total darkness that finally allows the stars to reveal themselves, perhaps brushed by the tail of a wonderful little affectionate feline, feeling the shower water on your skin while immersed in a ritual half-light like in a cave… This and more was Essenza Sardegna. THANK YOU…”
