The Next Chapter Club
Curated reading retreats for women who appreciate slow days, good reads, and great company.
Sometimes, you don’t need another packed itinerary. Just space to breathe, to laugh, to read, or to do absolutely nothing.
It'sNot Just a Retreat, It's a Rewrite
The Next Chapter Club brings together small groups of women in beautiful settings for relaxed, everything-taken-care-of escapes. Come for the reading, stay for the quiet moments, the easy company, and the joy of having nothing on your to-do list.
REAding is the new rich
Slow Down, Turn The Page
Think of it as holiday mode with extras: you can roll out a yoga mat, try something new, or skip it all and claim the comfiest chair with your book. Zero pressure, maximum freedom. Each day brings a mix of activities, from sound healing and gentle yoga to morning meditations and creative sessions. They add a little spark to the retreat, but you’re free to join in or sit them out. Healthy meals are prepared for you, snacks and drinks are always at hand, and the setting is full of cosy nooks and sunny terraces to match your mood. Best of all, unlike travelling with friends or family, there’s no hidden agenda or “what’s next?” list. In this circle of women, you really can do whatever you want, whenever you want. You’ll find warmth, laughter, and the joy of meeting new friends who truly understand the journey.You’ll return home recharged, with a lighter mind, a happier heart, and maybe even a few new friends – plus stories you’ll be sharing long after the retreat ends.
Sunshine, Stories & Good Company
- 9-12 January 2026
High above Marbella, the quiet village of Monda awaits, with mountain views, olive groves, and Andalusian sunshine all around. Just twenty minutes from the sea, our retreat is about good books, authentic flavors, and evenings that stretch into starlight. Think la vida tranquila with a touch of Spanish soul.
- 15-18 May 2026
Step into Villa de Nocfond, a storybook escape in the heart of the French countryside. Here, the “art de vivre” comes alive with slow mornings, creative sparks, and long table dinners in timeless surroundings. A retreat where nature, inspiration, and a touch of French elegance meet, made for savoring life at its most beautiful.
- November 2026
Step into a sun-drenched villa where marble floors, soaring ceilings, and soft Arabian light frame sweeping views of the sea. Our upcoming Dubai retreat is designed as a private, slow-luxury escape in the heart of one of the world’s most vibrant cities – think of it as our Luxury Edition. Think morning yoga on the terrace with the sound of the waves, afternoons by the pool, and candlelit dinners under the desert sky.

Reading retreats have been named one of travel’s most exciting new experiences, blending relaxation with inspiration. The Next Chapter Club was created with exactly this spirit in mind, making it effortless: a getaway that’s as unhurried, social, or solitary as you want it to be.
Women Who Found Their Next Chapter With Us
Our guests leave with lighter hearts, brighter spirits, and memories that last well beyond the retreat. Here’s what they’ve shared about their time with us.
“I’ve been to two retreats with Nathalie, and every single time I’ve come back renewed and refreshed. Everything is so thoughtfully taken care of that you can truly let go. I try to join her retreats at least once a year, and honestly, I can’t wait for the next one.”
“Going to the Marrakesh retreat was honestly one of the best decisions I’ve made in a long time. I laughed so much, had a few good cries when I needed them, and left feeling like I’d shaken off a ton of old weight. It wasn’t all serious either, we had such a good time together. It was a rare mix of fun, heart-to-heart talks, and real connection. I’ll never forget it.”
“What stood out most about the Ibiza retreat was the space to just be. No expectations, no rush, just moments of joy and serenity. The food was amazing, the yoga was gentle yet grounding, and the meditation sessions left me feeling centered.”
