Reviews and Ratings
My stay at Vikasa was a transformative experience, highly focused on yoga and wellness. The instructors were exceptional, making the classes accommodating and fun. Though the food was healthy, it sometimes felt a bit bland after a few days. The rooms, while modest, could use some updating, especially considering the price. Overall, this place is perfect for committed yogis looking for a peaceful retreat.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the yoga practice and the food were highlights, the facilities left much to be desired. The room was in desperate need of an update, making it hard to truly relax. Additionally, the service was a bit hit-or-miss. Overall, if you're looking for a strong wellness focus, this might just be the place for you, but don't go in expecting luxury.
My stay was absolutely wonderful at this place! The yoga classes were fantastic, and I really enjoyed the breathtaking ocean views. The food was a major highlight as well, being both delicious and healthy. However, I did find the numerous stairs a bit tiring at times. Overall, it was a rejuvenating experience, perfect for anyone looking to recharge their energy.
This place is a gem for yoga enthusiasts, offering a blend of healthy food, a peaceful atmosphere, and stunning views. The service is top-notch, with a friendly and accommodating staff that makes you feel welcomed. However, the rooms could use an upgrade as they feel outdated, which slightly detracts from the overall experience. If you’re looking for a retreat focused on wellness and relaxation, this is an excellent choice, but don’t expect a fully luxury hotel stay.
Vikasa feels like an enchanting paradise, offering breathtaking views and a warm, supportive atmosphere. My time there was transformative, with amazing teachers and a strong sense of community, making it a truly unique experience. However, I had a less than satisfying encounter during a day pass, where the service was disappointing and the food not up to par, which dampened the experience somewhat.
