Santorini Retreat | 27th April - 1st May 2026
📸 Simply Art Photography Retreat: Santorini, Greece – April 2026 - Only 6 attendees!
After the incredible success of our retreats in Tuscany, Bali, Western Australia and the Caribbean, we are beyond thrilled to announce our next Simply Art photography retreat destination — Santorini, Greece!
Known for its whitewashed villas, iconic blue domes, and sunsets that take your breath away, this retreat promises to be one of the most magical Simply Art experiences yet.
We’ll be staying in a luxury villa overlooking the caldera, where the turquoise Aegean Sea stretches endlessly before you. Each room offers spectacular views, and our private infinity pool, expansive terraces, and beautifully styled living spaces set the perfect tone for relaxation, creativity, and connection.
As always, your accommodation, breakfast, lunch and drinks at the villa, airport transfers, and transportation to and from all shoots and are included. All you need to do is book your flights and prepare yourself for the adventure of a lifetime!
🌿 This retreat will see us diving into personal branding and business development
and will feature incredible styled photo shoots in some of the most breathtaking locations on the island — think sweeping cliffside backdrops, charming stone streets, white rooftops overlooking the sea, and the golden glow of the Santorini sunset. You’ll capture images that look straight out of a dream while expanding your portfolio and deepening your creative voice.
When we’re not shooting or learning, you’ll have time to explore and indulge — sunset dining in Oia, dinner at Santos Wines, exploring the island, shopping in Fira, and simply unwinding by the pool with new friends who share your passion and drive.
This experience will be filled with not only breathtaking photography opportunities, but also practical, high-level business and creative education to take your studio to the next level.
