The real deal
I found this little sanctuary on Google so I was a little nervous that it would be a disappointment but I was very pleasantly surprised.
There is a lot of heart energy in this place and it attracts kind and authentic people both with the staff and volunteers and the guests. The yoga and classes were excellent. The little natural pool was a welcome cool off. And the food was delicious.

great retreat close to the beach
Kai and his team created a beautiful sanctuary in Puerto Escondido close to the beach . Beautifully landscaped with an artistic touch all Bungalows are very comfortable, clean and have a unique architecture . A natural water pool invites for splashing, or just napping in a hammock. The shared meals in an open-air kitchen are perfect to meet other guests. A feeling of belonging and family, makes the experience special.
Thank you for having me.
