A Susan Hyatt Retreat
Positano, Italy
September 4–10, 2026
POSITANO 2026
The Amalfi Coast Retreat You Weren’t Done With
(And Neither Was She)
Positano
September 4–10, 2026
For a decade, Positano was where women came to start new chapters…in life, in business, in love, in their own pleasure.
Ten sold out retreats. Ten weeks of yacht days, Ravello gardens, Mamma Agata’s lemon cake, cliffside espresso, sisterhood, breakthroughs, and big YES energy.
In 2022, I thought that era was complete. The villa I’d rented for years soared into celebrity only pricing. I closed the chapter and moved on to many other fabulous destinations.
But Italy has her own plans.
Last month, I caught wind of a villa I’ve walked past no less than a hundred times. Fresco ceilings. Bougainvillea terraces. A pool overlooking the Mediterranean. The kind of cinematic backdrop that makes strangers ask why they aren’t living bigger.
For 2026, she became ours.
And so, we’re going back.
A Week That Feels Like a Movie & A Turning Point
This retreat is designed to feel like slipping into a chapter of your life you didn’t know you were allowed to have. Luxury without apology. Pleasure without guilt. Adventure without justification.
If 2026 is calling for expansion, reinvention, or simply more joy, then Positano is where that unfolds.
The Villa
We’ll be staying in a private seven bedroom, seven bath villa perched high above Positano with:
Original fresco ceilings
A sweeping terrace dripping with bougainvillea
A private pool overlooking the Mediterranean
Elegant indoor and outdoor dining spaces
Room for coaching, laughter, cards, Aperol Spritz, and clarity
Cinematic architecture (yes, films have been shot here)
Imagine waking up, barefoot on cool tile, espresso in hand, salt air drifting in. The kind of morning that rearranges your priorities before you’ve even brushed your hair.

FAQ
Can I come alone?
Absolutely! Most guests come solo. Within 24 hours, you’ll feel like you arrived with friends you simply hadn’t met yet. This retreat is designed for meaningful connection, not small talk.
What if I don’t want to hike the Path of the Gods?
The hike is optional. If you prefer to sleep in, sunbathe, shop, or linger over cappuccino, that’s a completely acceptable interpretation of “Path of the Gods.”
What’s the vibe of the women who attend?
Curious. Bold. Funny. Smart. Kind. Women who are here for pleasure, clarity, adventure, and transformation … without apology.
Will my dietary needs be accommodated?
Yes. Our private chef and restaurant partners can accommodate most dietary preferences and allergies (just let us know in advance). Italy takes food seriously … you will be in good hands.
Is this a business retreat? A life retreat? A pleasure retreat?
All three. This week blends travel, coaching, pleasure, clarity, and adventure. Many guests experience major breakthroughs that influence relationships, careers, health, wealth, and happiness….but with less PowerPoint and more lemon trees.

Is there WiFi? Can I work during the week?
Yes, there is WiFi. That said, consider this a delicious opportunity to unplug. If you need to check email or take a quick call, there’s time and space, but the experience is intentionally curated to help you step away from the day-to-day.
What should I pack?
A packing list will be provided closer to the retreat and includes all the essentials…. outfits for coastal evenings, comfy shoes for the hike, beachwear, and room for shopping (linen and sandals are a religion in Capri and Positano).
What’s the physical level required?
Positano is vertical (stairs and hills). The schedule includes movement, walking, and optional hiking. If mobility is a concern, reach out and we’ll help you assess fit.
Can I extend my trip before or after?
Many guests do, and we can provide suggestions for Naples, Capri, Ravello, Rome, Florence, and beyond.
Is airfare included?
Airfare is not included. Everything else from arrival in Naples until departure is handled.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes… you’ll see payment options at checkout. Big Yes Energy members receive a 10% discount.
What’s your cancellation / refund policy?
Travel insurance is recommended and protects you in the event of unforeseen changes. Due to the nature of luxury villa bookings, deposits are non refundable. (More details provided in your contract.)
