What drives the price

  • Accommodation: dorm, shared room, private room or private villa is the biggest single factor.
  • Length: compare the price per night, not the total.
  • Location and season: peak summer or holiday dates cost more.
  • Group size and teachers: small groups and well-known teachers cost more.
  • Extras: massages, excursions, surf lessons and transfers.

What is usually not included

Flights, travel insurance, visas, airport transfers (sometimes), optional treatments, and meals on free days. Ask before you book so there are no surprises.

How to save

  • Book early-bird prices, often 10–20% off
  • Choose a shared room
  • Travel in shoulder season
  • Pick a retreat you can reach by train or a short flight
  • Try a weekend retreat before committing to a week

Deposits and payment

Organisers commonly ask for a deposit to hold your place, with the balance due a few weeks before the start. On Book Yoga you agree payment directly with the organiser; Book Yoga does not add booking fees.
