As we enter our second decade of hosting retreats in Italy, Vita Bella is moving into a new and beautiful chapter. Our beloved Tuscany and Florence programs continue, and we’re expanding into Puglia for 2026 with new partnerships, new creative collaborators, and a renewed sense of purpose. What remains constant is our deep commitment to care, presence, and the beauty of gathering. We’re grateful for every teacher and guest who has been part of this journey — and so excited for the luminous experiences ahead.
About Vita Bella Retreats
_edited.png)
Founded in 2014 by Jane Reeves. We are grassroots, women owned and operated. We are an intimate one-of-a-kind unique experience. Not just for the bourgeois but for all the people. We want our guests to have real authentic experiences, not just take photos of pretty things to show to your friends. We want you to dive deep and feel things, or lighten up and feel joy, or remember your dreams and come home to yourself.
Do things you dream about now. Don't wait until some moment in the future when you've got it all together. We do rustic, well run, safe, clean, authentic, richly connected retreats. We're super intentional about who we partner with and work with. Our hosts are deeply caring people born and raised in Italy.
Be here now.
Our Founder
Jane Reeves is the Founder and Creative Director of Vita Bella Retreats, where she creates thoughtfully curated experiences in Italy centered around creativity, culture, beauty, and connection.
A former yoga studio owner, teacher, author, and lifelong seeker of meaningful experiences, Jane has spent more than a decade bringing people together in some of Italy's most inspiring places. Through Vita Bella Retreats, she partners with exceptional teachers, writers, artists, and thought leaders to create intimate gatherings that nourish both personal growth and genuine human connection.
Jane believes that beauty, presence, creativity, and authentic connection are not luxuries, but essential ingredients for a meaningful life. Her work is guided by the conviction that when people step away from the demands of everyday life and gather in inspiring places, something remarkable becomes possible: deeper conversations, renewed purpose, lasting friendships, and a greater sense of belonging.
When she's not hosting retreats in Italy, Jane can be found dreaming up new experiences, writing, spending time with loved ones or exploring the beauty of everyday life.
