Soar above the scenary: Our exclusive hot air balloon and paragliding experiences

Some views are too breathtaking to be taken in from the ground. At Retreat Hotel, we invite our guests to rise above it all — literally. Our exclusive hot air balloon and paragliding experiences are designed for those who seek something extraordinary: a shift in perspective, a moment of weightlessness, a memory that defies words.

Begin your morning with our sunrise hot air balloon journey. Just before dawn, we’ll whisk you away to a quiet field inland where your balloon awaits. As the first light breaks across the horizon, you'll rise slowly into the sky — above woodlands, valleys, and misty meadows. The silence is profound, broken only by the occasional burst of flame and the soft gasp of awe from fellow passengers.

Each flight lasts around 60–90 minutes, followed by a gentle landing and a celebratory breakfast picnic featuring locally baked pastries, fruit, and coffee brewed on site. It’s a peaceful, grounding way to begin the day — from mid-air.

For the more adventurous, our paragliding experience offers a thrilling ride along the rugged coast. Launching from a high cliff point not far from the hotel, you’ll soar like a bird — gliding over the ocean, tracing the curves of the shoreline, and feeling the wind shape your path. Tandem flights with experienced pilots ensure safety and ease, even for first-timers.

Both experiences are available seasonally and must be booked in advance due to limited availability and weather conditions. Our concierge team will handle all logistics, including transport, preparation, and any gear required. Just bring your sense of wonder.

Few things make you feel more alive than seeing the world from above. Whether it’s the quiet drift of a balloon or the adrenaline rush of a paraglide, these sky-bound adventures capture the essence of Retreat Hotel — freeing, awe-inspiring, and unforgettable.
