Bamboo Yoga Retreat

Yoga holiday was bliss. Great spot right on the beach. Comfortable cabins, delicious food and great teachers

Perfectly located at the end of Patnem beach. Amazing food, super friendly staff, great yoga teachers, and cosy cabins!

Awesome atmosphere, wonderful location, effective yoga teaching!

The location itself is stunning. Also the yoga lessons and the food were great. However, we encountered some incidents which have changed this review from a 5 to a 3:nn1. Dolphin tournWe asked where we could book a dolphin tour and they immediately offered us to organize it. The weather was a bit windy and they told us then every day that next day would not be a dolphin tour due to the weather. One morning, however, one staff member told us that the fisher man is also a tuktuk driver and did not want to do the tour because he had some tuktuk business.nThis is when we asked another tour operator and they said that they would go and that the weather is not a such a big issue. Unfortunately, our week was almost over and we couldn't do the tour anymore.nAlso, Bamboo just dropped the topic without any further notification.nn2. Rats inside the hutsnWe got quite lucky. In our hut there was just some rat dung in our bathroom. From other girls we heard that they saw rats in their huts, had dung on their mosquito nets and even got their shorts and underwear bit into (holes). The worst thing was that the staff didn't seem to care that much. The girls were able to change their huts, but only after they got holes in their clothes and the reimbursement was only something from their souvenir shop, maybe worth 2-8 €. Another girl saw a dead mouse under her bed caught in a mouse trap. She wasn't even aware of the trap.nnIn general, we still enjoyed our stay. But the above-mentioned things really need to be improved.

Had an amazing time there, so relaxing, amazing yoga teachers and wonderful staff.
