Eight men celebrating in turquoise pool water at Cinq & Sept hotel near waterfall, Roujan, France

Group fun in the sun



Our spring and autumn retreats are a fantastic way to learn new skills, meet new people and escape to the sun. We've tracked down some amazing instructors to lead each of our retreats - all experts in their field. Each retreat begins with a group dinner , and a group breakfast is included each morning. We also organise a Pizza & Games  night on the Thursday, and a Canapés & Wine event on the last night. You'll have plenty of time each day to explore the region, relax by the pool or unwind in our jacuzzi. Read on to find out more about the retreats on offer this autumn and next spring.



THE WATER RETREAT



SEPT 29 - OCT 4, 2026

The Water Retreat invites you to explore the south of France through four days of water-filled fun and relaxation. Sail on a luxurious private catamaran to Cap d’Agde, kayak the River Orb (with a picnic lunch), and take a private Wine & Oyster Cruise on the Thau Lagoon. Then relax at the luxury Calisséo spa, with its huge outdoor hot pools, saunas and indulgent treatments. Experience the beauty of our region through its waters.

HIKE & DIP RETREAT



OCT 6 - 11, 2026


Four fantastic walks through some of France's most stunning scenery - with an optional swim at the end of each. You'll visit different types of terrain (mountain, coast, vineyard & lake), and stop to enjoy picnics with a view. There's a dinner on the first night and time to unwind in the jacuzzi or explore the area. 
(Dogs are very welcome!)



DEEPER TANTRA RETREAT



OCT 13 - 18, 2026


This is not a beginner’s retreat. It’s for men who’ve already explored tantra and are ready to go deeper—into the body, into connection, and into the space where tantra meets conscious kink. Through guided practices, breath, touch, and intentional play, you’ll heighten awareness, expand your edges, and explore desire in a grounded, respectful way. This is a shared journey that blends depth, genuine connection, and a touch of playful hedonism.

SOUTHERN GEMS



OCT 20 - 25, 2026

A private tour of the very best of the Languedoc region of the south of France - stunning medieval castles, Roman ruins, and walks (and swims) in breathtaking landscapes. Enjoy a private Wine & Oyster Cruise, and share meals with new friends that celebrate the region’s finest flavors. A relaxing blend of history, nature, food and wine with your guide Joel.

(Tours all in English.)

'Easter Kink' Weekend



APRIL 3 - 6, 2026


Slip into a sensual Easter weekend where erotic energy, conscious touch, and playful mischief set the tone. With group dinners, time to chil & explore, and playful Easter rituals (seductive bunnies, “egg painting,” erotic treasure hunts), the weekend is sexy, light-hearted, and spiritually charged. On Saturday, get ready for a sexy Easter fancy-dress party. Get ready to let your inner rabbit run wild!

'Halloween Kink' Weekend



OCT 30 - NOV 2, 2026


A chance to relax and play - and bring out your darker side - for a Tantra-inspired weekend of eating, drinking, exploring, relaxing - and of course our Halloween Party with guests and local gay friends. 

TANTRIC ENERGY RETREAT



NOV 3 - 8, 2026


The group will discover the hidden secrets and potential of their bodies by learning to draw on, and direct, their inner Tantric energy. You'll be using yoga, meditation, breath, touch and massage to achieve blissful, possibly ecstatic, states: maybe even 'body orgasms'. 

(Sessions held in English | Non-participating partners welcome!)

'NAKED TOUCH' YOGA RETREAT



NOV 10 - 15, 2026


Run by Ian Rose, this 4-day retreat aims to combine touch and connection with yoga movement to bring us closer to our bodies, ourselves and to others. Sessions are designed to be body-positive, and accessible to those with all levels of yoga. There's a group dinner first night and plenty of time to explore the region or just chill with the group.

CULTURE & WELLNESS



MAY 4 - 10, 2026  |  OCT 12 - 18, 2026

A mix of morning yoga (some at the beach and by our pool) and afternoons spent exploring and enjoying our gorgeous corner of the South of France. Discover the history, wine, cuisine and natural wonders of the Languedoc, while firming up your yoga technique with the lovely Andrew Bloomquest.

LEARN TO MASSAGE RETREAT



NOV 17 - 22, 2026


Learn to send that special someone to heaven and back with the ultimate massage. The lovely Pierre, our masseur, will be sharing the secrets of his intense 'Myofascial Release' techniques. You'll learn by massaging other members of the group - and even experience an '8-hand' massage.

The Perfect Time to Visit



Our retreats are held in spring and autumn - both awesome times to visit Cinq & Sept. In spring, the countryside is carpeted with flowers and in autumn, the vines and tress all turn vibrant shades of gold, orange and red. The region is less crowded and the weather is mostly sunny - the perfect time to explore castles or take a walk along the beach. Enjoy a glass of wine while soaking in our jacuzzi, or chat with friends in our Cocktail Lounge.
