Return home with all you need to pursue your creative vision

The Skyros Centre is the original home of Skyros Holidays.

It’s an intimate, adult-only retreat set high up in Skyros Town, with sweeping views over the rooftops and the sea.

It’s a special kind of Skyros: village life on your doorstep, a more focused learning experience, and a warm, thoughtful atmosphere that makes it easy to settle in – whether you come for creativity, perspective, or personal growth.

Many guests come to the Skyros Centre on their own. The small groups, shared meals and welcoming atmosphere make it easy to settle in while still having plenty of time and space for yourself.

How it works

Choose one of two Masterclasses

You’ll select your preferred Masterclass before you arrive. Masterclasses run in parallel mid-morning for three hours a day, over five days — designed to help you go deeper and make meaningful progress.

Morning yoga (optional)

Early morning yoga is available across the week, open to everyone – either as a drop-in or as a gentle progression over five days.

Evening open sessions

Each Masterclass facilitator also offers one early-evening drop-in session, open to all – so you’ll get to experience both facilitators’ teaching over the week.

Optional treatments

An experienced therapist is available for massage and holistic treatments, booked by appointment.

The rhythm

The Skyros Centre gives you enough structure to stay engaged – and enough space to feel like a real holiday.

Between classes, you can explore the lanes of Skyros Town, pause on a terrace for the view, read, or simply rest. For beach time, head down to Magazia and Molos – two long, sandy bays that make it easy to properly unwind. You can take the climb back to Town at your own pace (or hop in a taxi), and there are also optional island excursions during the week, if you’d like to explore further.

As with every Skyros holiday, you can do as much – or as little – as you choose.

Accommodation

Choose between rooms in Skyros Town (near the Centre) or beach rooms by the sea.
