The Amphitheater
Uniquely designed to represent the Sun and the Moon and surrounded by high walls, the totally enclosed amphitheatre is a contained and acoustically perfect space for live entertainment, shows and performance art as well as yoga, tai chi and night meditation ceremonies. Picturesque, with low walls for seating and mature trees for shade, it is a popular spot for performances of all kinds.
Everyone needs and should honour themselves with some time out from their routine and go on a retreat. The finca is genuine paradise. The architecture, colours, light, the best food in the world formulated by the loving, nurturing people who run it. I loved it and hope to be back.

A beautiful and tranquil place. We have been going to various places on your retreats over the last 5 years and La Finca Paradiso has had by far the best food, alongside incredibly kind and friendly staff.

We all had such a lovely time with you last week, thank you, and all the team, particularly Penelope for taking such good care of us and helping us become very relaxed. We had such a happy time. It was wonderful. Still can't believe on top of everything else that the food was so incredible. Absolutely delicious. I am so pleased that I took part in as many of your wonderful activities as possible, thank you so much for making me so welcome.

As a painting tutor, what I require from a venue is not only surroundings that will inspire my students, but a tranquil and supportive atmosphere that enables them to concentrate on their creativity and me to get on with my teaching. La Finca Paradiso fulfils those criteria admirably. Added to that, cuisine and comfort are clearly top priorities at the finca, while everyone who works there is committed to providing a personal service to each and every guest. I’ve taught at the finca on three occasions now and every time, my students are not only relaxed and happy, but produce great work.

After 5 years to going to different venues in Italy, France and Spain, and enjoying them, I can honestly say we have found a wonderful venue. The standard of food, guest relations, ambience, welcome and general feel of La Finca Paradiso was second-to-none. As soon as you arrive you start to relax unwind and be at one with the exquisite gardens - lying by the pool listing to the birds, to the relaxing mood music for dinner, the attention to detail was wonderful The outstanding food was superb and all dietary requirements were catered for seamlessly. The accommodation ranged from good-sized shared rooms to a fantastic main suite in the finca. I would sincerely recommend La Finca Paradiso to any instructor looking to take a group on a retreat.

The team made the whole experience wonderful. Katie is a top-class chef and the food is amazing- a riot of flavour and colour. The rooms and gardens are wonderful, the massage was the best I've ever had. But most importantly the people who run the place do it with genuine love and care which makes the retreat healing, nurturing and peaceful.
