Finding Inspiration in every encounter
Welcome to the world of ManuDiosa, where a journey of self discovery intertwines with the essence of community and healing. Born in a small Italian town, ManuDiosa has traversed the globe with her partner Roberto, finding home for almost a decade in the wild landscapes of Costa Rica and since 2018 moved in the lush hills of Crete.
ManuDiosa and Roberto are passionate creators who have shifted their journey from a vibrant art café in Puerto Viejo in Costa Rica, to a holistic massage and energy therapy studio in Crete. Check www.zoecrete.com Their commitment to well being inspires them to collaborate with talented therapists and healers, offering a wide range of services that nurture both body and soul.

When she first connected with her home in Crete, she immediately felt a deep connection with her ancestors and desided to honor it creating a beautiful container to connect people in a suppotive way, thus transforming the garden into a sacred and spiritual space, called Villa Melodia.
She aims to collaborates with visionary facilitators, that nurture and empower the community dedicated to spiritual growth, supporting people to find greater inner peace, wholeness and life fulfilment through reunion with spirit, nature, ancestral wisdom and practices.
Passionate for music, singing circles, cacao ceremony, djing in ecstatic dance, practising shamanic wisdom and honoring the sacred spaces opened in the circles, ManuDiosa steps forword in her life following her intuitions, intentions and guidances for a greater harmony in support for the collective.
Our Story
Villa Melodia is a magical and charming place, a private home with a relaxing and secret garden, located among olive groves and cypress forests on the beautiful hills of Apokoronas, in Crete.
From the very first moment, the host ManuDiosa felt the call to share her home-temple with people from the community interested in gathering in a healthy way, cultivating a container of holistic activities and workshops aimed at supporting conscious individual growth.
In fact, on a magical and auspicious early spring dawn in 2022, ManuDiosa had a lucid dream in which she saw her community gather in her garden as they danced, sang and opened up in a circle, feeling harmony and freedom in union.
Since that day, she has cultivated her prophecy and vision with care, presence and devotion. She deeply confides that the path of remembrance, our innate connections with Nature, Ancestors, Cosmic Consciousness and our essence as beautiful Creative Human Beings on Earth, open us up to the possibility of creating a life in harmony and abundance, respecting each other and honouring each step we take towards self-awareness and the discovery of our gifts.
Villa Melodia is committed to preserving this sacred space in which we evolve together.
Since 2022, the garden has opened up to artistic healing arts, such as meditation sessions, breath work, women's and co'ed circles, vocal mandalas, devotional concerts, multi-ethnic and conscious music, improvisational dance, somatic works, ecstatic dance, healing therapies, cacao ceremonies, sound healing and more. To date, Villa Melodia has hosted several local and international artists and space helders such as Carolina Chream, Zin Onyx, Themis Alexandris, Nectarios Mitritsakis, Eleni Alexiou,Jennifewr Rose, Maja Backovic, Colleena Shakti, Rob Sykes, David Binyamin, Dr Kamila Hortynska and Paulina Melissas.
Villa Melodia longs to combine personal healing with conscious fun, creating an environment in which to experience the joy of being, belonging to a growing community in Crete and contributing all with our unique presence and gifts. A peaceful conteiner in harmony with Mother Earth, which combines lightness and depth, reflection and curiosity, childish joy and creativity, inspiration, presence and sharing, within a mostly adult community, where children over the age of 8 are welcome with parental supervision.
Villa Melodia offers space rental for workshops, concerts, holistic mini-retreats, healing arts, seasonal community enrichment meetings, aimed at cultivating a more ceremonial set up of sacred space.
If you feel called to join our vision, we will be honoured to explore the possibilities together.
