Prana del Mar is a five-star yoga retreat center. The facilities are spacious, pristine, sparkling clean, and high-end. The staff is incredibly friendly and treat you both like royalty and part of the family at the same time. The food is clean, healthy, fresh, and some of the most tasty recipes I’ve ever experienced. The location is a dream come true – overlooking the ocean. Watching the whales, hearing the sounds of waves rock you to sleep each night, and enjoying the gorgeous skies at sunrise and sunset are just a few of my most cherished memories. The staff takes care of you and are extremely organized and professional with everything!
