8-Day Surf and Yoga Wellness Escape in Bali

The retreat is run by a small team that operates like a family, known for its welcoming vibe. Guests often comment on the sense of community and how easy it is to make friends. The schedule is structured but not rigid: mornings start with yoga, followed by breakfast and a surf session. Evenings bring a second yoga class and dinner, with free time in between to relax by the pool or explore Canggu.

The yoga program takes place in a 60 m² bamboo shala on the lawn, next to the rice fields. Morning classes focus on energizing the body, while evening sessions are for stretching and relaxing. All props are provided. The surf program is comprehensive, with a maximum of four students per instructor in the water (the listing also mentions a 2:1 ratio in another section), including surf theory, video analysis, and daily feedback on your progress.

The location in Padonan, just outside the main Canggu area, offers a peaceful setting within a short drive of the beaches. You can walk or rent a scooter to explore the surrounding rice fields, or visit beaches like Pererenan, Echo Beach, and Batu Bolong. The retreat center itself has a pool, garden, and open-air common areas with spiritual statues and water fountains.

The Holy Camp was created by a sacred healer and retains a mystical feel, with traditional Balinese architecture blended with clean Western design. Rooms are cozy with open-air showers, and the property is kept exclusive, hosting only up to 14 guests at a time. This makes it easy to get to know everyone and feel part of the group.
