Bodhi Surf + Yoga

Bodhi Surf and Yoga es un lugar muy especial que combina la aventura con la naturaleza y la comunidad local. Son unas vacaciones completas de surf y relajación. Aprendimos mucho sobre el océano, hicimos nuevos amigos, disfrutamos conociendo a la gente local y también aprovechamos algunos recorridos paralelos. ¡Qué hermoso lugar!

RESERVE AHORA: me quedé durante 2 semanas en este pequeño pedazo de cielo y fue la experiencia más increíble en mi historia de viajes en solitario. Este lugar está dirigido por personas auténticas e increíbles que también atraen a personas únicas de todo el mundo.no te arrepentirás!

Mi experiencia en Bodhi Surf and Yoga Camp fue una combinación perfecta de relajación, tiempo social, tiempo en la naturaleza y aventura. Todo el personal son personas maravillosas que están ansiosas por ayudar a que su experiencia sea excelente. Las habitaciones eran hermosas, cómodas e impecables. La comida era deliciosa con muchas opciones para todas las dietas. Las clases de yoga fueron personalizadas al nivel de cada persona y fueron el complemento perfecto a la experiencia física de aprender a surfear. Todos los profesores, tanto de yoga como de surf, fueron fantásticos y brindaron atención personalizada a cada invitado. También aprecié los esfuerzos de sostenibilidad y la participación comunitaria de Bodhi, una empresa solidaria que comprende la importancia de apoyar a la comunidad y cuidar el planeta. Me encantó cada momento de mi experiencia en Bodhi. Recomiendo encarecidamente una o dos semanas en Bodhi para personas de cualquier edad y para mujeres que viajan solas.

Este es nuestro segundo conjunto de lecciones con Bodhi y trabajando con Adrienne. Las lecciones son muy completas y obtienes una experiencia muy educativa sobre el océano, las olas, las condiciones y el medio ambiente. Es mucho más que simplemente conseguir que te subas a la tabla de surf. Continuaremos aprendiendo más lecciones de ellos en el futuro. ¡También son geniales con los niños pequeños!

Bodhi predica con su ejemplo. Si quieres experimentar comunidad y conexión, este es el lugar para ti. Han creado una experiencia que está entretejida en el tejido de la comunidad local, e inmediatamente pasarás por allí y te sentirás como en casa. Esta no es una experiencia corporativa; interactuarás con la comunidad local, compartirás comidas con el equipo y apoyarás a varias pequeñas empresas.

Y eso sin mencionar la idílica ubicación y la elegante instrucción de todo el equipo que apoya el surf y el yoga. Estará bien apoyado, bien alimentado y bien cuidado. ¡Entra y sonríe mientras remas! No puedo esperar a volver.

¡Me quedé con Bodhi en noviembre y pasé una semana estupenda! Todos los miembros del personal fueron muy amables, atentos y serviciales, e invirtieron en hacer que fuera una estancia estupenda. Bodhi renovó mi práctica de yoga. Y aunque fue una semana ventosa en la temporada de lluvias, aprendí mucho de Travis y Spencer en el agua. Una noche sufrí una intoxicación alimentaria (en un restaurante de la ciudad) y me llevaron la comida a mi puerta, y Adrianne me llevó a la tienda para ayudarme a conseguir suministros. Lo que más disfruté fueron sus esfuerzos como empresa B y su activo interés e inversión en la comunidad local, y cómo lo hacen también parte de su visita. ¡Gracias Bodhi! (y lo siento, es tan tarde)

¿Cómo puedo expresar esto adecuadamente con palabras? En pocas palabras: ¡vete!

Permítase experimentar una auténtica comunidad de defensores del océano, personas concienzudas y apasionadas por ofrecer a cada huésped una oportunidad única de sumergirse en una cultura del amor. Amor del océano. Amor de familia. Amor por la comunidad local. Amor por la salud. Amor al planeta. Amor de la vida.

No estoy seguro de haberme sentido más atendido en mi vida. Esta fue la mayor bendición de mi tiempo en Bodhi. Como terapeuta y madre, a menudo encuentro que me preocupo más por el cuidado de los demás. La oportunidad de recibirlo fue un gran regalo.

Travis & Pilar y su equipo te recibirán con los brazos y el corazón abiertos. Ve con la mente abierta. Esta no es una versión turística de Costa Rica. Esta es una representación genuina de la autenticidad y la cultura local.

¡Mi copa se rebosa!

“Sonríe mientras remas” -Travis

¡Lo pasé fantástico en mi primer viaje en solitario a Bodhi! Bodhi es un lugar acogedor y amigable y el equipo es muy amable y servicial.
La combinación de excelente comida, buena compañía y la oportunidad de aprender a surfear la convierte en una experiencia única. Reducir la velocidad y sumergirse en un nuevo entorno puede ser transformador y recomendaría este lugar por ello.

Tuve las mejores vacaciones en mayo de 2023 en Bodhi Surf and Yoga. Los alojamientos estaban limpios y tranquilos, las lecciones de yoga y surf eran excelentes y me hicieron un mejor surfista y más consciente, y la comida era excelente. No podría recomendar este lugar más

Took the family here for Spring Break. We were totally new at surfing, but Bodhi made it fun and accessible. The location is amazingly beautiful. The lodge is elegant yet simple, a natural part of its locale. The surrounding community is thriving and growing. It felt safe, and there were delicious eateries within walking distance. The Bodhi staff are amazingly generous and kind-hearted. We would definitely recommend Bodhi Surf & Yoga!

Loved getting to spend a week at Bodhi Surf + Yoga. They create an environment that allows you to completely take a break from the stresses of your at-home-life while creating a schedule that has the perfect balance of activities and rest.
The staff and service is really good which definitely contributed to the wonderful experience we had here. The staff are helpful and interesting people who really care about their work. I could not imagine Bodhi without each of them as each brings their own uniqueness to the table.
Bodhi is a Benefit Corporation and thus has a mission to connect people to the community and environment in a way that leaves you very grateful for the people around you and wanting to be apart of the good in the community you're apart of.
Thank you Bodhi!

Me quedaré en Uvita por unos días y espontáneamente decidí intentar surfear por primera vez: contacté a Bodhi y pude unirme a una lección para principiantes. La playa a la que fuimos era perfecta para principiantes y disfruté plenamente de las 2 horas de instrucción: el instructor Spencer fue muy claro en sus explicaciones, consciente de mis problemas (¡coordinación!) ¡Y muy alentador! Gracias Bodhi por la experiencia.

Was invited to Bodhi with a friend & did not know what to expect. I ended up having one of the best weeks of my life! George, Adrienne, and Keisha went out of their way to help us on every level. Housekeeping keeps every room immaculate. The property is gorgeous. It felt like we were in a treehouse. I had never surfed before, but immediately felt comfortable with Travis’ instruction, and by the end of the week we were all more or less “surfing” on a beautiful beach in a national park during brilliant sunsets. Pilar is an excellent yoga instructor who tailored each session to our group’s ability and needs (after surfing we needed to do some stretching!). The group meals are fantastic, Fanny is an excellent cook. There are also some really great restaurants in the area, which the staff are happy to tell you about if you need recommendations. Bahia Ballena/Uvita is a great little community. Nothing too touristy. Very chill. Despite all the physical activity, I felt so relaxed after this trip. Didn’t even take that many pictures because I was having too much fun in the moment. Can’t wait to go back!

Bodhi is more than just a vacation spot, it is a place to connect with others and yourself, to stretch your mind/body/soul, appreciate your surroundings, have fun and be a little adventurous, and relax and recharge all the while being considerate of our environment, being socially and economically conscious and give back to the local community. The combination of surf and yoga was perfect and the staff, food and lodging are amazing. This was an absolutely perfect trip and I highly recommend for all.

This was an exceptional week that exceeded our expectations in every way. The accommodations were quality and well-furnished. Food by Fanny is excellent. Adrienne and Noeme handled details smoothly. George is an amazing host that made us feel right at home the minute we got there.

The instructors are world class. I've had several surf lessons, but Spencer taught me fundamentals that got me surfing on a new level. And although I'm a yoga teacher with a well-established practice, Anki brought new perspective into things and taught classes that both first timers and advanced students could enjoy.

Uvita is a beautiful place that is destined to gentrify quickly now with the newly paved roads. Visit Bodhi Surf and Yoga now while it still is an emerging secret destination.

On top of everything else, Bodhi is an eco-friendly and conscientious business making a difference locally and worldwide.

Travis, Pilar, Adrienne and the staff of Bodhi not only opened their homes, but also their hearts. Yes, the customer service was great, but it’s in a genuine want-to-get-to-know-you kind of way. The accommodations were immaculate and comfortable. The surf lessons were informative and offered personalized feedback. Our group had different levels of experience and we all walked away with additional surfing skills and knowledge. Our entire group stood up on the first day! The yoga was the perfect mix of mindfulness, meditative breathing, and mobility. I left those classes breathing a bit deeper and with a sense of calmness. Fanny provided delicious meals that were prepared on-site and included local ingredients. The entire Bodhi week far exceeded my expectations. I could go on about the influential week I had at Bodhi, but I’ll just leave it here and say thanks for a magical visit. We hope to be back someday soon… until then, come visit us in Hawaii

We really loved the yoga and surfing and the people. It all felt so natural. Both the yoga studio, the water temp and surf location were ideal as well as the food and the staff! If you could close your eyes and dream of something that would be inconceivably ideal.that's what this is. We were so relieved to see our girls (14 and 18) get so lit up with joy and excitement in the waves and on the surfboards. I'd say this is the best way to vacation with teens. They felt comfortable with the youthful but very professional staff. Even weeks after the trip our 18 year old said, "i really miss being at Bodhi. " I'd never surfed before and I can't imagine learning anywhere else. The progression of lessons was perfect and catered to each individuals ability and comfort.

Travis (founder and surf instructor) encouraged me to write something more constructive so this doesn't look like a fake review.:) I would say, that with everything being perfect, there were times when I was uncomfortably warm. I suspect if I spent more time there that I might get used to the muggy days there, which are ideal when you're in the ocean, however, be prepared to sweat.a lot. (we were there toward the end of the rainy season) Coming from Colorado there's a big difference, so maybe that's what I was feeling too. But, if you feel like you need A/C to rest, for example, then maybe there are other places you could stay but still get the benefits of everything else they offer. But I'm not sure that's an option? You should also know that on some weekend nights there can be a lot of motorcycle traffic zooming up and down the road late at night, which can be loud. But that didn't happen much on weekday nights, or maybe I was too tired from surfing to notice! These two things are so minor that I wouldn't let it keep you from having the best vacation ever. Carpe Diem.

Oh yeah. Some parts of Costa Rica might feel a tad rustic. Not Bodhi. We stayed in the Espiritu cabin and it had everything, it was incredibly clean and cozy.beautiful wood and high ceilings.

It’s been almost 2 months since my time at Bodhi and I still reflect on it almost daily! Bodhi was my first stop of a long solo adventure. Within 24 hours I felt a sense of HOME. The Espiritu room - OMG. Very dreamy. The crew is obviously AMAZING. Each crew member is genuinely welcoming, helpful, fun, funny, and knowledgeable! I learned about topics like sustainability which left a mark on me forever. I got to sneak in an impromptu photoshoot with Anki too and I highly recommend her, she was amazing and so were my photos. The surf instruction was absolutely perfect, learned tons, and left feeling MUCH more confident in mama ocean. I also LOVED the schedule they have curated. Perfect to allow space for rest & recovery. The town & the people are very heart-opening. Impossible not to fall in love with it all. I’m still travelling through Costa Rica and know I’ll be back there at some point!

Bohdi is an awesome surf and yoga retreat!
The accomodations were clean, peaceful and serene.
The staff and instructors were all topnotch and ensured a memorable experience.
I've had 3 previous surf lessons (from different locales) over the years, but Spencer our surf instructor at Bodhi is the best! His passion and methodology in teaching you about surfing will have you up in a short period of time!

The yoga portion was very informative and contributed significantly to the surfing.
Anke is a very knowledgeable and patient yoga instructor. As a newbie in the practice of yoga, Anke answered all my questions and really impressed on me the value of yoga in relation to surfing!

The owners have created a wonderful place to
practice/ learn yoga and surfing!

After one week of surfing (of which I was apprehensive), yoga (which delightfully eased my body + brain) and incredible food (that added the surf-burned calories right back onto my bottom), the Bodhi Team became family. The people who come here are drawn by the Bodhi energy, so you're guaranteed a great time, The staff are magnanimous, funny and expert in everything they do. I now feel comfortable in the ocean, managed to stand up and can't wait to go back. Don't mess around, book your trip!
