Our 7-day retreats offer the perfect escape, carefully curated to cater to all levels of surfers and yogis. Experience paradise, catch some waves, and find your zen in our exotic locale.
A Day in Paradise
At Soul & Surf, your days will be packed with exciting activities and relaxation. Start your mornings with a rejuvenating vinyasa yoga class, surrounded by the stunning jungle. Fuel up with caffeine and pre-surf snacks, then hit the waves for an exhilarating surf session. Indulge in a delicious communal breakfast, followed by chill time by the pool. Enjoy a scrumptious lunch, more relaxation, and soak in the beauty of the sunset during another surf session. End your day with a delectable dinner, surrounded by good company and positive vibes. Our goal is for you to unwind and bask in the awesomeness all around you.
Immerse Yourself in Nature
Prepare to be enchanted by the natural beauty of our property and lodge. Nestled within a tea and coconut estate, the lodge is surrounded by 12 acres of organic tea bushes, coconut trees, and wild jungle. Built by local hands using sustainable materials, our retreat offers a secluded and peaceful ambiance, while still being only a short 10-minute tuk-tuk ride away from the wave-rich Kabalana Beach.
