Host a Retreat in Goa
Host a retreat in Goa without any stress
Imagine leading your yoga retreat in Goa without any stress or worries. Your students drop into their practice. You stay grounded in your teaching. No last-minute scrambling for missing props. No awkward conversations about dietary restrictions that somehow got lost in translation. Your airport transfers are sorted. You have someone to answer questions about the area.
We are here to support you as a retreat host, providing a service that is reliable, well-equipped and easy to organise. We are proud of our hospitality, our space and the area.
Check out how we host our yoga holidays!
Located on the backwater of Patnem Beach
Your group enjoys luxury accommodation on the peaceful backwaters of Patnem. We are away from the busy tourist area and just a 10-minute walk to the beach. At the end of the day, your guests can walk to the Arabian Sea for a sunset meditation or a refreshing dip. We are also a short rickshaw drive from Agonda and Palolem.
Wake up in the morning to the sounds of nature, take a chai on the riverside and you are ready to start practice with impressive views of the palm trees and the sound of the exotic birds and monkeys. Enjoy meals at our riverview restaurant, serving delicious, hearty, vegetarian food.
Everything you need is already here for a well organised retreat. You literally just need to recruit your students and guests.
Teach in a shala that is
surrounded by nature
The yoga shala is exclusively yours. It’s quiet, private and surrounded by nature. You will love how the light dazzles through the palm trees during morning practice and throughout the day.
Mats, blocks, straps, and bolsters are already in place. Nothing to carry or arrange. Just show up and teach.
Feel at home in our cottages
You can host up to 20 people across 10 cottages. Five spacious suites with king beds for couples or those who seeking extra space. Five twin cottages perfect for friends sharing the experience. Rooms are big and spacious, equipped with mosquito nets to allow for air at night.
Each cottage has a modern bathroom with hot water and a private terrace overlooking the palm garden. The cottages surround the yoga shala, keeping the group intimate and connected.
Enjoy chai in our riverside restuarant
Your package includes brunch in our Riverside Restaurant with fresh chai. This is hearty vegetarian food with an abundance of fresh, local fruit and vegetables. Vegan, gluten-free and other dietary needs are easily accommodated.
We offer self-service tea and coffee in the restaurant before early morning practices and throughout the day. Fresh juice and tropical fruit are served before your afternoon session or as needed.
Students typically head to the beach at the end of the day. They can enjoy dinner as the sun stes over Arabian Sea. Group dinners at our restaurant can be arranged on request. Your students can enjoy healthy, savoury, vegetarian dishes served as a buffet providing sustenace for full day of yoga.
The Ayurvedic Spa
Your students can discover authentic Ayurvedic pamper without leaving the property. Traditional Abhyanga Massages melt away tension. Shirodhara is great to calm the mind. Rejuvenating body polishes restore tired muscles from a full schedule of yoga classes.
