Cesmekoy is a sustainable living project established in Izmir. It is a beautiful retreat center in a midst of a forest. People growing their own cultivated products, the decoration is rustic, we will be housed in spacious rooms with nature and sea view. Imagine a place surrounded by pine trees, the sounds of cicadas coming from the forest and singing bird creating a refreshing soundtrack. Practicing yoga, pilates and meditation in a place like this is simply a bliss.

​

In addition to the common daily practices, we organized two visits to the most beautiful beaches of the Aegean Sea, as well as and afternoon at a magical village, Alacati, that has gorgeous stone houses, unique stores and delicious local restaurants.
