Holiday ExpiredAbout Bamboo Yoga Retreat
We have missed the vibrant energy of Goa and cannot wait to return in 2023. We’re heading further South to the peaceful and unspoilt beach of Polem, the new home of Bamboo Yoga Retreat.
Polem is a beautiful secluded beach with a long sweeping crescent of golden sand sheltered by rocky headlands. From the beach you can see a tiny island out to sea and reach other secluded beaches by boat or on foot.
The peaceful retreat is located on the beach close to a small village for the perfect authentic Goan experience and low key nights of music around the beach fire. The more lively areas for a night out are just a short drive away so you can experience all the vibrancy and colourful energy that Goa has to offer.
Retreat programme
Join Jess for a yoga retreat at this very special place with two fully equipped, shaded yoga shalas overlooking the beach with breathtaking views and a sea breeze to keep you cool. An opportunity to dive deeply into your yoga practice in simple surroundings and restore your elemental balance.
Each day will begin with a morning class of meditation and flowing asana to gently open the body and attune the mind to the breath. The afternoon class will be more restorative and often include yin yoga, pranayama, meditation or yoga nidra.
Between classes there will be time to relax on the beach, swim in the sea or take a massage. There will be two yoga-free half days when you can head out and explore or take a boat trip in search of dolphins at sunrise or sunset, included as part of the retreat.
Accommodation & food
Bamboo offers beautiful beach bungalows that blend into the natural surroundings with balconies that face towards the ocean and surrounding paddy fields. All with en-suite bathrooms, air conditioning, mosquito nets and the option for single, double or twin occupancy.
A small number of cabanas are available with direct ocean views for an additional supplement cost.
Freshly squeezed juices, tropical fruit and teas will be offered from sunrise. Delicious Goan-inspired vegetarian brunch and dinner using locally sourced ingredients will be offered each day. On the last night there will be a special farewell beach dinner.
