A Journey of discovery: Sisterhood, Beaches, Hammam, Art , Pamukkale & Well-being
Antalya
Bismillāhir-Raḥmānir-Raḥīm
At Musafir Homes, we design seamless, stress-free retreats that allow you to focus on what truly matters: discovering the beauty of your destination and nurturing your personal growth and connection. With access to halal dining, prayer-friendly schedules, and thoughtfully curated experiences, our retreats are tailored specifically for Muslim travellers.
Our ethos is rooted in holistic wellbeing — nurturing the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of each guest. Every retreat offers something unique, with lasting benefits that extend far beyond your time with us.
We combine years of travel experience with genuine guest feedback to constantly improve and evolve. We also speak directly with all activity providers, and whenever possible, conduct exploratory visits to ensure safety, authenticity, and depth. Unlike unstructured solo, group or family travel, our retreats provide curated accommodations, guided experiences, and meaningful activities — all aligned with your values.
Our goal is not just to give you a memorable journey, but to leave you with something that stays with you long after the retreat ends.
We nurture your spiritual, emotional, and physical wellbeing through thoughtful retreats.
We design retreats that offer space to explore, pause, grow, and connect in a safe, enriching environment.
This retreat takes place in the stunning coastal city of Antalya, where you'll stay in a spacious wooden chalet — each with its own private swimming pool for your comfort and privacy. Following the success of our previous retreat here, we’re excited to return — this time offering two date options to accommodate both school holiday schedules and those outside of them. This rare opportunity allows more sisters to join us in a serene, uplifting setting.
In addition to carefully curated experiences, tours, and wellness activities, we are taking a day trip outside Antalya to explore the stunning natural wonders of Pamukkale, located in the Denizli Province. This remarkable excursion is part of our commitment to creating meaningful, bespoke experiences.
Sisters will be treated to a Muslim women-only hammam—a truly relaxing highlight that was deeply cherished by our previous group.
Health Screening at a World Class Hospital: in keeping with our well-being ethos, we are always looking for meaningful ways to add genuine value to our retreats. As part of this, we’ve been able to secure access to professional Health screenings at a world-class hospital in Antalya for those who wish to take advantage of what Turkey has to offer. These private, VIP health screening sessions are available at a fraction of typical UK costs and provide an opportunity to fast-track diagnostics, with comprehensive medical reports delivered by highly qualified, English-speaking doctors. Participation is entirely optional and tailored to each individual. We will explore the details during your one-to-one retreat introductory session, ensuring it aligns with your personal needs and intentions.
Keeping with our well-being theme we are delighted to have two well-being sessions from a UK qualified and experienced practitioner- she will be focussing on mindfulness and breathing techniques, supporting emotional well-being while respecting islamic values and spirituality.
In addition we have arranged a block printing workshop, open to all attendees, offering a creative and enjoyable activity that adds a unique touch to your retreat experience.
Our trips are designed with your comfort and privacy in mind—we usually hire large cars or buses, so you won’t normally share transport with members of the public, unless the overheads are so high that it will impact the cost of the trip.
Full details are provided below in the accommodation details and retreat highlights.
Nestled in the peaceful town of Kadriye, our chosen chalets and villas offer the perfect balance of comfort, privacy, and accessibility for sisters seeking a relaxing and spiritually nourishing break.
Discover the breath-taking beauty of Pamukkale, Turkey’s famous “Cotton Castle,” with its white mineral terraces and warm thermal pools. Wander barefoot across this surreal landscape and visit the ancient city of Hierapolis, where history and tranquility come together. Travel in comfort with your group in a private, air-conditioned vehicle (non-shared, subject to minimum number of participants) while enjoying stunning views along the way.
We have carefully selected a leading Antalya hospital to offer optional VIP medical health screenings, including private transport to and from the facility.
You’ll have one dedicated day to explore your health at your own pace, choosing as much or as little screening as feels right for you. This experience must be booked in advance and can be discussed during your one-to-one retreat introductory session.

I had an amazing experience with this travel package to Istanbul! Everything was well organised, from airport transfers to guided tours. It removed all the headache of planning a trip. Highlight of the trip for me was the Bosphorus cruise. The itinerary had the perfect balance of sightseeing and free time. I would definitely recommend Musafir Homes.
I booked through Musafir Homes after being referred by a friend. The service provided was excellent. Responses were timely and professional. I booked an apartment in KL, Malaysia for 2 people and saved approx £50 compared to the cheapest I could find myself online. Thanks to Musafirs service I was even provided a free complimentary upgrade once at the apartment. I would highly recommend Musafir Homes and will definitely be using them in the future.
We booked our apartment hotel and airport transfer through Musafir Homes and were really impressed.. They provided complimentary airport transfers, which made it so much easier. There was a small mix up at the start with the car company, but Musafir Homes immediately fixed the issues and ensured our return journey was confirmed in time. The apartment they recommended was in a great location with lake views and shops and a pharmacy nearby. It was really clean and had two bathrooms and it was near Skendenberg square. Communication with the company was excellent throughout and they even got us the apartment cheaper than other websites. Their attention to detail and personal touch really stood out, we'd definitely recomnend them to anyone looking to save money and get hassle free stays and transfers.
I'd like to say a huge thank you to the team at Musafir Homes for organising our Istanbul trip for my large family of 24! I know it couldn't have been easy, but they made everything completely stress-free. Musafir Homes took care of every detail, from our airport transfers to our return journey home. They also organised our Istanbul city tours. We did two different tours with them to explore different zones in Istanbul. They were also very flexible, they arranged a special day trip to the Asian side of Istanbul, where we visited the breathtaking Grand Çamlıca Mosque which was my favourite day in Istanbul! I was initially worried as we were travelling with many children and older adults, but Musafir Homes made our lives so much easier. We were able to relax and enjoy ourselves while being transported smoothly from our hotel to each tourist spot. Our tour guide, Emirhan, was extremely knowledgeable about Istanbul's history and sites, and his storytelling in English was very engaging! It was also very clear that him and our driver were always in good communication to ensure that our tours ran seamlessly. The price was also much better than what we would have paid if we booked through Tripadvisor or other online sites. Most importantly, the team at Musafir Homes were friendly, flexible, and genuinely committed to finding what worked best for our large group. I wholeheartedly recommend booking your holiday with Musafir Homes. Thanks to them, we had the most memorable summer holiday in Istanbul.
