Solo travel, long stays, and digital nomadism are no longer trends – at GEA, they are ways of living. Ways of slowing down, breathing deeply, creating with purpose, and reconnecting with yourself.
GEA Retreat, nestled in the mountains of Central Montenegro, was born from this very idea: a sanctuary where you can work, rest, heal, and belong – in rhythm with nature.
Whether you’re travelling solo, as a couple, or seeking a remote, wellbeing-focused home while working online, this is where balance truly returns.
Sustainability as a Way of Living
GEA is built on principles of self-sufficiency and environmental respect. Our goal is simple: rely less on external systems and more on nature’s effortless abundance.
We’ve already had in place:
- 🌿 A self-sustaining water system
- 🌿 A human-made rainwater collection pond (up to 500 m³) for irrigation and recreation
- 🌿 Zero food waste: composting + feeding our animals
- 🌿 Waste separation & responsible recycling at our own expense
- 🌿 Development of a mini recycling hub for our local village.
Future steps include solar energy production, expanded rainwater systems, and community-driven circular solutions.
Guests are invited not only to witness these practices but to live them, from motivational bio-gardening to daily rituals of mindful sustainability.
Nature Healing – Returning to Yourself
In a world that constantly accelerates, GEA teaches you to slow down.
Our wellbeing approach integrates:

Here, nature is not a backdrop – it is your companion, healer, and teacher.
Sara, Digital Nomad
This is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever visited. Nestled into the side of a mountain, overlooking a valley full of trees. Pictures don’t do it justice. If you’re looking for a peaceful place to recharge, you can’t do any better…

Montenegro – A Mediterranean Secret Made for Slow Travel
Just minutes from GEA, new stories begin:
- a short walk to the Ottoman-era Presjeka Tower
- hikes to Mount Golija and historic caravan traces
- swimming in Lake Krupac, the “Sea of Nikšić”
- scenic cycling routes and untouched plateaus
- silent sunsets and panoramic viewpoints.
This is the Mediterranean that time forgot – pure, quiet, unspoiled.
Conscious Health & Mental Wellbeing
At GEA, wellbeing isn’t an activity, it’s a philosophy. Everything you take in becomes part of you: the food, the breath, the relationships, the landscapes.
Our team helps you nurture:
- your physical health
- your emotional balance
- your energy
- your connection with nature and community.
It’s about learning to live well, with intention and presence.
Coliving: A Community That Forms Naturally
People who come to GEA often say the same thing:
“It feels like home – instantly.”
Here, coliving means more than sharing a space. It means sharing:
- meals, ideas, rituals, and support
- moments with our animals
- help in the garden or during seasonal work
- winter evenings by the stove, summer sunsets on the terrace
- game nights, wine tastings & thoughtful conversations.
Connections grow effortlessly when people vibrate on similar frequencies.
Workation & Productivity in the Mountains
Digital nomads choose GEA for one powerful reason:
Deep, uninterrupted focus in a naturally balanced environment.
A typical day looks like:
- productive morning work sessions
- breaks outdoors instead of screens
- coworking in the Community House
- wholesome meals
- mindfulness rituals at sunsets
- community or complete solitude, as you prefer.
Many guests complete more in a few days here than in weeks at home or the office.
If you’re seeking a place to work, rest, heal, and feel part of something real – GEA Retreat is your home in the mountains
Message us when you’re ready for your escape. Solo, couple, or long-term coliving – all are welcome. Our community opens its doors with warmth and intention.
