Feel like a new woman

The timetable is fantastic for anyone recovering from grief, burnout or simply wanting to get their health back on track. The instructors are fantastic and the juicing really helped me to regain my energy. It’s set in beautiful countryside and you’re amongst many warm and welcoming guests, so you never feel lonely. I feel like a new woman, and will be incorporating lessons learned when back home.

A relaxing and rejuvenating experience

Following a difficult year this retreat provided the relaxation and respite I was much in need of.
This was my first yoga retreat and I found the whole experience to be well organized and welcoming, from the accommodation, the food and all the yoga sessions. I did not feel that lack of yoga experience was a hindrance in any way.
In fact I enjoyed the experience so much that I plan to book another retreat later in the year.

Completely misleading description of…

Completely misleading description of 'Retreat' in Sidmouth so beware. Massive disappointment. Sessions were not bespoke in any way, no attention was given to our needs, not even a quick chat, we were just booked into local classes. There was no reference to us at all - website says 'Tailored' - total nonsense. Fortunately the Hotel, the Elizabeth, was great with lovely staff - but that's not what we went for!. Tripaneer and BookYogasRetreats fobbed us off when we pointed out that the 'retreat' was mis sold, so obviously they don't care what they sell and this problem may apply to other retreats on the site. Don't fall for the blurb or at least double check what it means as it just wasn't honest at all. I asked if they or the provider 'OceanWellnessHub' were members of any professional or regulatory bodies and they couldn't answer - so that's a bit of a problem in itself. Will never use them again.

Hi Oliver,

Your concerns were reviewed by our team after you contacted us regarding your stay.

Although we understand that the format of joining existing studio classes did not align with your expectations of a more personalized retreat experience, based on the information available at the time the classes included in the program were delivered as scheduled. The program structure and schedule were also clearly outlined by the organizer through the platform messaging system prior to booking.

While a monetary refund was not approved, a goodwill resolution in the form of a €50 Tripaneer voucher was issued to you as a courtesy.

We regret that the experience did not meet your expectations and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. - Michele

Exceptional Customer Service

I had a really bad experience with a retreat teacher I booked being very rude and demanding payment in a manner that made me not feel comfortable going there just a week before the trip. I contacted book yoga customer service and they handled it extremely well and were responsive and professional, offered me options and refunded the non refundable deposit due to the circumstances. I would definitely book through this company again just not the Casa Chakras retreat in Cozumel!

Amazing Yoga and Sightseeingtour in Southafrica/Capetown

BookYogaRetreats treat people exeptionelly badly

BookYogaRetreats platform did not work, so I was not able to pay the deposit. I wrote and told that I would come late at night the next day (after many trials with the payment). I asked them to give me their phone number so I could call them if I did not find the place or anything since I travelled alone and would arrive late.
On the airport I got the answer: "Without the deposit payed, we are not allowed to give you any contact information outside this platform".
I wrote and said that I was on my way, the flight soon taking off, assuring them that I would come, and saying that it gave a lot of disstress not knowing if I had my retreat or not after having bought very expensive flights.

With some delay form the air company I arrived close to midnight. There was NOONE there. I had no phone number, they had not answered my last mail that I sent 12 hours earlier, I could only ring at the bell at the gate again and again and shout, but nothing happened.

I was alone abroad in the middle of nowhere. I can not understand how it is possible to treat a person like this.

The yoga retreat I was supposed to participate in, has written me and said that they had no idea that I was coming!!! What an extreme lack of communicationg and logistic. What a huge amount of carelessness.

I had to go to the hotel possible – a very expensive one, and I had no wish to stay at a place where people treat me like that. So the whole, expensive holiday became something very, very different than planned.

BookYogaRetreats take no responsibility for their own platform not working, no responsibility for eager participants that guarantee to come the next day (if I asked them to reserve for a month, I can understand, but from I wrote them from the airport the morning in the morning til the evening the same day!!

I am apalled. This is below any standard I´ve seen so far.

Hi Anne, We understand that arriving late at night without confirmed accommodation must have been very distressing.

However, as communicated clearly by both the organizer and our platform, a reservation is only confirmed once the required deposit has been successfully processed. Selecting travel dates or stating an intention to arrive doesn't constitute a confirmed booking.

In this case, the deposit payment was not completed. The unsuccessful payment attempt originated from the card issuer and was not caused by a technical malfunction on the BookYogaRetreats platform. Without a secured booking, the organizer could not reasonably be expected to prepare for or anticipate your arrival.

Our customer support team also reached out via email to assist with completing the payment; however, we didn't receive a response.

While we regret that this situation resulted in inconvenience, accommodation can only be guaranteed once a reservation has been properly finalized through payment. - Michele

6-Day Yoga & Hiking Retreat at Villa…

6-Day Yoga & Hiking Retreat at Villa Pranayama – Bliss Yoga Retreat

I spent six wonderful days at the Bliss Yoga Retreat (27.01–01.02.2026), and from the very first moment the atmosphere felt welcoming and positive.

The Villa & Accommodation
Villa Pranayama truly feels like a home. I stayed in a shared three-person room, which was spacious and comfortable, with plenty of room to keep personal space without feeling crowded. The heated pool was a lovely bonus for this time of year. Everything was well organized and thoughtfully prepared.

The Program & Daily Rhythm
The structure of the days was beautifully balanced — active yet relaxed. Mornings began with yoga, followed by a healthy and nourishing breakfast. Afternoons were dedicated to scenic hikes and beach time, and evenings ended with a delicious three-course dinner (often with wine), creating a perfect sense of completion to the day. The rhythm allowed us to move, breathe, rest, and truly disconnect from daily stress.

The People & Atmosphere
What stood out most was the genuine care and attention to detail. Dominic is a wonderful host, and the whole team worked in harmony to make everyone feel comfortable and supported. Even the villa’s mascot, Carl the little dog, added warmth to the experience. I also met beautiful souls during the retreat — connections I hope to keep beyond this trip.

I wholeheartedly recommend Bliss Yoga Retreat to anyone looking to practice yoga daily, enjoy healthy food, explore nature, and feel truly cared for in a peaceful and inspiring environment.

Really disappointed with this greedy…
Really disappointed with this greedy…
Really disappointed with this greedy company. I had to cancel my retreat due to a late back injury and whilst they supposedly charge up to 15% of the retreat cost on their commission, the initial deposit is about 30%. In this instance they have refused to return any funds to me at all, even though the retreat organiser, who may have incurred some loss at my absence, was happy to fully refund me :(. Try to go direct to the retreat organiser in future!

The sum involved is 367.96 GBP

Reservation Code: VJMOHKX2

They make no explanation of why they need these funds- everyone else refunded, the flight, the hotel and diving I was going to do, but not this greedy company. And offering a reuse after a medical issue within a certain time frame is no help at all. I had an ankle fracture 2 years ago the day before a trip and it took a year to mend properly so I could not use the deposit and now I may be advised not to do yoga again as my back issue was caused by yoga before the trip. Why are you keeping my money?

Hi Jenny,
We understand how disappointing it must have been to cancel so close to the retreat start date, and we truly wish you a smooth and speedy recovery.

Just to clarify, deposits on our platform follow the non-refundable cancellation policy agreed to at the time of booking. This applies to customer-initiated cancellations, regardless of the reason, including medical situations.
Even so, the organizer kindly agreed to make a goodwill exception and a Store Credit for the full deposit amount has already been issued to your customer account. The details on how to use it were shared in the email sent on January 7, 2026. Please feel free to check that message for full information.

We always recommend reviewing cancellation policies carefully before booking and considering travel insurance for unexpected situations, as exceptions aren't always possible. Thank you for sharing your experience, and we wish you all the best as you recover and move forward.-Samron
