25-Day Yoga & Remote Work Retreat in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua

The retreat runs for 25 days in San Juan del Sur on Nicaragua's Pacific coast. Days here have a loose shape rather than a packed timetable. Mornings begin with a yoga and mindful movement practice designed to wake you up properly before you start working — so you sit down to your laptop clear and focused rather than already behind. After that, the day is yours to organize around your own workload.

The workspace is the practical centre of the retreat. It sits just above the swimming pool and looks out toward the ocean, giving you a light-filled spot to concentrate. Fast fiber-optic internet is what makes the whole thing work — video calls, file uploads, and deadlines all held up without the usual worry about flaky connections. You're not fighting for a café table or guessing whether the wifi will fail mid-meeting.

What separates this from a co-working stay in a city is the location. San Juan del Sur has a sweeping bay, warm Pacific water, and a laid-back surf culture. Being surrounded by that instead of a grey street does change how the days feel, and it gives you somewhere to go the moment you close your laptop — a swim, a walk along the beach, or a surf session if you're keen. The slower pace of coastal Nicaragua also makes it easier to actually rest between tasks instead of pushing straight through.

Over the 25 days the aim is to build habits you can take home: a morning practice, a work rhythm that includes breaks, and a clearer sense of how balanced your work and personal time can actually feel. You leave with your projects advanced, but also with some idea of what changed when you stopped treating rest as something to earn.

The retreat is run by Sasha Kossak, who is based in Nicaragua and also leads shorter surf and yoga retreats in the country. That local knowledge is useful — the practical details of getting around, where to eat, and what's worth doing in the area all come from someone who lives there rather than a remote booking desk. Accommodation is in bungalows on site, with a choice of private or shared setups. Meals are tailored to the group and dietary needs are handled per booking.
