Description
Looking for the perfect family holiday? Need to reconnect with your loved ones? Look no further—our Family Fun, Sun, Surf and Yoga Retreat is the first of its kind, and we at Santosha are proud to offer it to you!
The scheduling of this family retreat allows parents to rejuvenate in the morning yoga sessions while children enjoy learning to surf or participating in beach activities. After the morning fun, everyone gets together for a hearty breakfast and a chance to reconnect. In the afternoon, the children engage in yoga or outdoor activities and the parents grab a board and head for the waves. To seal the day for mums, dads and children, we finish with a guided relaxation to set the scene for a perfect night's sleep!
The yoga offered is for all levels, beginners to advanced, as is the surfing. Children need to be at least seven years old and confident in the water. For younger children, we have expert child minders readily available.
We understand the challenges of meeting the tastes of every member in a family, so we have included a scrumptious brunch as part of your retreat. This way it is easy for you to shop locally to fuel growing bodies and have the foods that your family wishes to eat for the other meals of the day.
For those who want some extra pampering, a masseur is available onsite, ready to give you the royal treatment at any time of the day. All you need to do is book!
All of our activities are optional, and there is plenty of time for relaxation and exploration of the area.
The accommodations we have chosen are perfect for families, with beachfront bungalows that sleep six easily and have full kitchen facilities. You can keep within your budget and find all that you need to unwind and restore.

The cost of this retreat covers two parents and two children; for each additional child, there is a charge for childcare, yoga and surfing activities.For younger siblings that need childcare please let us know and we can organise this.

See the Accommodation Page for more information.
