Open your heart to the timeless wisdom of Mind, Skin, Microbiome and Energy in a safe home we meticulously picked for you.

The location is a journey. Our exclusive sports and wellness retreat takes place in a luxury family Basque house, nestled at the feet of the ocean, facing the mountain ranges of the Pyrenees — at 200m from the beach.

Our wellbeing Program is designed to meet a variety of objectives based on deep relaxation.

Reinvigorate yourself deeply through a synergistic blend of healing yoga enhancement, surf sessions, face workout and balancing culinary art.

Welcome to your new home.

WHO ?

HOME BODY was born with the purpose of bringing together sportive souls who share a passion for escape, in an exceptional setting where body and mind connect harmoniously.

We welcome guests from all walks of life, guiding them on the path of self-discovery and renewal.

Authentic, open-minded, and resourceful are the individuals we aspire to have at HOME BODY.

It is dedicated to travelers, creatives, adventurers, entrepreneurs, and those who are attuned to the world around them. We seek curious individuals who do not take life too seriously and fully embrace its joys.

WHY ? 

Our starting point for reflection is simple: we are exhausted.

Designed to revitalize the healing energy within oneself, HOME BODY creates an immersive stay centered around four fundamental elements of personal development : Mind, Body, Microbiome, and Energy — with water as the transformative vector.

Our retreat is a synergy of complementary disciplines with the aim of achieving one goal : soothing mental and emotional stress through physical activity amidst tides and mountains.

"Self-care is how you take your power back." - Lalah Delia

Unwind your body
in your all-inclusive Program

Five harmonious days alternating the practice of three types of yoga: aerial yoga for soaring, a combination of vinyasa and yin yoga for grounding, and finally, a soothing meditative interlude to deepen mindfulness.

On the shores of the Atlantic waves, our meticulously designed surf lessons cater to both novice and seasoned surfers, with two specific objectives in mind: self-transcendence and rediscovering our primal connection to the natural element of water.


No part of the body is left neglected. HOME BODY provides two specialized face treatments for rejuvenation.

Created by our therapist Lily from BlissTouch Massage, experience the Facebliss facial massage inspired by the Kobido technique to deeply stimulate facial muscles.

Similar to high-intensity interval training for the body, the innovative Facegym mask will have the same effect on facial muscles.

Its secret ? Utilizing electrical muscle stimulation technology to strengthen, sculpt, tone, and firm our beautiful visage, all in just 10 minutes.

Our experienced and certificated instructors will coach you in each discipline with the best care.

ABOUT

I am Gilone. A long run model, singer, free dance performer and music producer born and raised in Guadeloupe island, French Caribbean.

Working all over the world led me to have a disciplined lifestyle to stay balanced. Stay healthy is a full time job.

In 2009, while recovering from a knee fracture, I discovered yoga in Cape Town. The experience had a profound impact on me. My mental strength multiplied, my anxiety diminished, and my body underwent a life transformation.

Passionate about freediving and swimming, I felt the desire to learn a new water sport, upon returning from Los Angeles in 2020.

I enrolled in my first surf and yoga retreat in Portugal, where I encountered the thrill of riding waves and the pursuit of self-improvement. I was captivated by the experience.

"How do you do your job for so long ? What sport do you do ? Which foods make your skin so good ?" are constant questions people ask me.

HOME BODY is my answer. 
 
Welcome to your new home.
