Review Time
I booked a sailing and Yoga trip which awesomely had the option of a private cabin. After having booked and paid, I was informed by the host, Ana, that it was no longer possible to get that private accomodation. I asked if I was at least gonna share with a girl as my partner and I would not feel comfy otherwise. I got the response that the host does not think this trip is for me as sailing is a social activity. Obviously afterwards I also no longer feel comfy to go there. I now asked for a refund as the host herself told me not to come. She first offered me an overpriced retreat in Barcelona that had nothing to do with sailing. Then bookyogaretreats took over. They also only offered store credit. I made it clear that I am not sure if I ever wanted to book with them again after this experience. It then took several interactuons with their Customer Service via Email (they answered promptly, friendly and seemed competent). I have now gotten a cash reward. In the process I found it bothering that with this being the situation I was offered store credit in a way that it was assumed that was a good deal that I found irritating. Also, waiting for the money, despite it only being around a week, didn't feel great.In the overall process I found that BookYogaRetreats.com does not facilitate anything much as compared to booking directly with retreats as I have done many times before with never even once having a bad experience.I would personally probably not book through them again, as apart from a very well made website that gives you a great overview I do not really see any advantages with the experience I had. I realize that the fault is overall not at all with bookingyogaretreats originally, but I feel it would have been around as difficult to get the money back from the original host directly had I booked through them and probably without an automated booking system his mistake could have even been avoided (they tell you which rooms are available if you book through a person and not a machine that might have to be updated when over night there are many bookings).
Dear Yoga Retreat Team,I would like to express my sincere gratitude and enthusiastic review for the unforgettable yoga retreat experience I recently had. It was truly a transformative journey that I would recommend to anyone seeking inner peace, physical strength, and mental clarity.From the very beginning, I felt the warm and welcoming atmosphere you created. The entire team was extremely professional and empathetic, and I felt comfortable and well taken care of from the first minute. The organization of the retreat was outstanding, from the seamless registration process to the thoughtful design of the daily program.The yoga classes themselves were outstanding. The experienced and compassionate instructors encouraged me to explore my limits and take my yoga practice to a new level. The various yoga, Meditation, Breath-work styles and techniques we practiced were diverse and challenging, yet accessible to all participants regardless of their experience level. I felt inspired and motivated to deepen my own practice and discover new aspects of yoga.In addition to the yoga classes, the retreat offered a wealth of enriching activities. The guided meditations helped calm my mind and establish a deeper connection with myself. The mindfulness and self-care workshops provided me with valuable tools to manage stress and enhance my overall well-being. Furthermore, the walks into the surrounding nature were simply breathtaking and offered a welcome change from the daily routine.Last but not least, the accommodation was top-notch. The retreat's surroundings were idyllic and provided the perfect setting for relaxation and rejuvenation. The rooms were comfortable and tastefully furnished, and the healthy and delicious food exceeded my expectations. It was wonderful not having to worry about anything and being able to fully focus on the retreat and my personal development.Overall, my yoga retreat experience with you was truly transformative. Not only did I deepen my yoga practice, but I also gained new insights about myself and found an inner calm that will resonate with me for a long time. I cannot thank you and your team enough for this wonderful experience.I will definitely recommend your yoga retreat to anyone seeking a getaway to harmonize their body, mind, and soul. Once again, thank you for your excellent work and warm hospitality.Best regards,Elena
Really lovely! Perfect chilled retreat if you love animals and total chilling this is the place. Lovely staff very accommodating and made things flexible for us even changing yoga to a hike to waterfalls to do it as our request. It was beautiful. Animals wondering around and food is very healthy and yummy.
It's a family running a sustainable small holding, commited to healthy living managing a team of young international volunteers who are constantly changing. Not a recipe for 5-star hotel service, but something very special that you are not going to easily find elsewhere. If guest realise this, they can create a conviviality between them that results in interesting conversations around the dinner table and supportive companionship during the activities, including those ad hoc ones that the guests arrange for themselves.
Really easy to use site for finding and booking a yoga retreat. Everything went smoothly and was exactly as described. I had no need to use customer service, so I couldn't possibly comment on how good or bad that might be. I would definitely use the site again if looking for similar experiences.
The genuine way of connecting with people and feeling at home with a group of once strangers from the verry start is something i find magical and a thing to be remembered for the rest of my life.To LizaYou are an amazing woman and i will see you again while walking the path you've helped me see so clear ❤️
A lovely setting for a relaxing few days. Very welcoming. Great yoga and meditation in a beautiful converted barn. Comfortable sunny accommodation. Felt very homely. Good food. A bonus of great company from the other guestsHighly recommend
The people in anandamaya are caring and they are doing everything with love. The yoga instructor knows so well human body and she can adapt the yoga session to your body needs. Also she is an excellent therapist. Vasso who was responsible for the meals was an excellent cook and a very caring person , so she does everything with love and care and Konstantinos the host is a very polite and goodhearted person always willing to help. Also the house is amazing.
