I have just come back from a week at La Vida Surf and I cannot recommend it highly enough! The riad is perfect, the staff are friendly and the yoga is excellent. On top of that the food was truly incredible all week! If you are looking to recharge and relax, this place is perfect.

I had a wonderful week with friends at La Vida Surf in November - the perfect escape from autumn in London. The sunrise and sunset yoga with panoramic views were the perfect start and end to each day and the food was amazing - I’ve never eaten so well! I am returning home refreshed and rejuvenated and having met a lovely, friendly and diverse group of people. Thank you!

I had a yoga retreat in November and I was impressed by this place. The location is on the hills close to taghazout and it ideal for having peace and practice yoga and meditation. The food is amazing and the staff is going above and beyond to accommodate any requests. The atmosphere is super friendly and familiar. Super recommended for those who wants to have a fantastic retreat in Morocco.

La vida surf is a fantastic, very well organized and lovely place to be. The retreat has been amazing and it has exceeded my expectations! The stuff, teacher and chefs are amazing people who made this week to something really special. I really enjoyed the balance between yoga, activities and silent. And of course the best food I’ve ever got - it was a surprise everyday! I highly recommend this place. Thank you La Vida - you are great!

I came here for a 1 week yoga retreat. I loved my time here, the riad is very nice and cozy, the rooftop for yoga has an amazing view and you can catch the sunset every morning. The food is very nice, almost always vegan. My favorite was always the amazing breakfast with fresh fruits and local products on the communal table outside. Will miss this so much!

The Retreat was an amazing experience, I would always recommend. The yoga practice is amazing. We had different styles, always at sunrise and sunset. The food was beyond amazing and the timetable allows you to have a good amount of structure and activity but also time for yourself. I will come again :)

I joined the yoga meditation retreat and enjoyed it very much. There was a really nice schedule with yoga classes, workshops and free time. You could join but not had to. So everyone could just do what they wanted to and how they felt. Practicing yoga during sunrise with a view over the mountains was so fabulous. The service was just amazing. Everyday there was different very delicious food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. They are organizing the transfers and make sure you get safely from and to the airport. Also the place is really beautiful with the pool, rooftop terrace and silent surrounding.

I recently had the pleasure of attending a yoga retreat at La Vida Surf in Morocco, and it was truly a transformative experience. The small group setting created a sense of intimacy, fostering connections with like-minded individuals. The yoga sessions, held twice a day, were nothing short of amazing, catering to all levels of expertise. The additional workshops added depth to the practice. The positive vibe at La Vida Surf is infectious, and the hosts are incredibly welcoming. What sets this retreat apart is not only the focus on yoga but also the delicious vegan food that enhances the overall well-being. It's a week filled with relaxation, self-discovery, and the joy of embracing yoga at your own pace. Whether you're a seasoned yogi or a beginner, La Vida Surf is the perfect haven to unwind and immerse yourself in a week of holistic well-being. Highly recommended!

I recently joined a yoga & meditation retreat at La Vida Surf in Morocco, and it was such an amazing experience exceeding my expectations. The group size was perfect to create new connections, feel safe and have great yoga sessions. It was 2x yoga - during sunrise and sunset - with stunning views over the Moroccan mountains and the ocean. The teacher and all the other stuff at La Vida Surf are incredibly welcoming. The workshops vary between the retreats but for us they offered Acro yoga and breath work which was just amazing. Food is as well fantastic: Mostly vegan, homemade and incredibly tasty. This week was full of relaxation, joy, self-reflection, connection and moving your body at your pace and adjusted to your needs. 100% recommended!

The retreat was amazing! It was my first retreat and I booked it very sponteanously. Meike and Elena answered me all my questions in advance and where very helpful. When I arrived in Agadir I was picked up and brought to the Riad. The transfer from and to the airport as well as transfers to the dunes, death valley, Taghazout etc. have always been organized by Elena and Meike. They help you with everything so that you just have to decide what you want to do and enjoy your time. Yoga classes have been amazing with Reettaa. She is a kind and lovely teacher. I was new to Yoga and a bit afraight. But I started loving it and practice it since then as she made Yoga for me a great experience that helps me to quiet thoughts and connect with the body. The food was delicious! As I am sensitive to gluten and milk, I got alternative meals. The have been prepared with so much love and tasted like that! The place was one of my favorite things..the Riad is a very warm and welcoming place. My room was lovely and it was quit during the night. Living in a big city it was just so nice to enjoy the calmness. And the view from the Riad was just soo beautiful! Apart from your Yoga classes and surf lessons (which I haven't booked) you can do so many things. We have explored the dunes, Taghazout, Paradise Valley and Souk el Had. Everything was organized for us and the team supported us in everything regarding our trips. I will definitely visit one of la vida surf retreats again. :)

This was AMAZING! Everyday beautiful sunrises and the view is absolutely stunning. The area is safe and nice to explore, the food is fresh, healthy and always enough to eat. Very friendly employees, they will help you with everything which was super nice for me since it was my first time in marocco. The yoga lessons were amazing, thank you Liana ♥️ I definitely will come back to this beautiful place!!

Amazing retreat run by wonderful people! In one week I was able to unwind, slow down and find back to myself. The program is well thought through and the beautiful location in nature just perfect. Thanks for the sweet memories, sunrises, sunsets and delicious food! <3

Went for a yoga retreat, including yoga lessons twice a day - with the sunrise and in the late afternoon on the roof outside. Classes were amazing, all equipment was provided and good quality and condition, including blankets for the colder mornings. Elena, Meike and Vanessa looked after us along with their cleaning and kitchen staff, who are all lovely, welcoming, hard working and generous with their time. Everything was clean and comfy and the food was very good. There is wifi but it's not overly strong, probably because you're out in the countryside. Taxis are cheap so easy to go explore. So many stars are visible at night! There's a nice size outdoor pool and lounge chairs. Highly recommend! Would go again :)

Such an amazing experience! Me and my friend had booked the surf and yoga package and we loved every second of it. The day started with yoga in the morning, then a delicious breakfast and then we spent the rest of the morning and most of the afternoon learning to surf. We then returned to the Riad for sunset yoga followed by a delicious dinner. We were the only one in our group that had the surf package so we didn't spend as much time with the others in the group, but we still got to know some of them and it was lovely to hang out in the evenings. We also met some lovely people through the surfing. Our surf instructor Momo was amazing! Very friendly and patient with beginners. All the people working at La Vida Surf are wonderful! Reetta is an amazing yoga teacher and she really adds a wonderful personal touch to her teachings. Elena organised everything for us, including booking transport and treatments. Meike was wonderful and friendly and I wish I could have got to know her better! There was always someone around to look after us. All the staff were also super friendly and Mihand and Mohammed even shared their evening meal with us when we arrived late and hungry in the late evening. I will never forget this kindness! Some useful tips that I wish I would have known beforehand (but you can always ask any questions as they add you to a whatsapp group before you leave home): -In March it was quite cold in the mornings before the sunrise so I was very happy I had packed some long sleeved t-shirts and long leggings. I wish I would have brought hoodie as this would have been perfect for the morning yoga. I had my down-jacket but this was very restrictive for yoga. I also wished I would have packed a hat and woolly socks for the morning. As soon as the sun comes up it gets very warm very quickly and the yoga warms you up as well so usually at the end of the yoga I'm only wearing my sports bra! -If you are surfing then pack a beach dress or sarong. I used my sarong every day on the beach. Also in Taghazout you don't have to worry about wearing a bikini top with a skirt or a short dress as this is a surfing town and people are used to it. In Agadir it is better to wear something that covers a bit more skin, but even here tourists wear short shorts. - Definitely bring a baseball cap or similar as you will need it for the sunset yoga to protect your head from the sun. - Cash is king and you can't pay by card anywhere (except the airport). I would recommend lifting most of the cash you will need at the airport as this was the cheapest. A massage costs roughly 400-600 MAD, coffee on the beach is 10 MAD, if you want to buy souvenirs then lovely ceramics cost approx. 100-200 MAD. - There is no alcohol at the Riad and very few places in town serve booze so don't expect a boozy holiday. We went for a beer a couple of times after surfing at World of Waves. - Bring a big water bottle for the beach. You get water with your lunch but you will need more! - You don't need any fancy clothing. The place is very laid back so leave your evening dress at home! You can wash clothes as well if you need to so for a week you don't actually need that much clothing. Maybe three t-shirts, leggings, shorts and a beach dress/sarong. I always pack too much stuff! - The wifi is slow and only available in the common area, so it is a lovely digital detox at the same time. You did not go on a yoga/surf retreat to just be on your phone so just forget about social media and work for a week and just relax!

What a lovely retreat! Secluded in the mountains and the perfect get away. Yoga was excellent; staff were so helpful and kind; food was lovely…and of course the other attendees were so much fun! It was my birthday on the retreat and all the staff went out of their way to make it special …with a happy birthday in boat pose (!) and 2 cakes! I can’t thank you enough for a lovely break…exactly what I needed! Xxx

I came here for a yoga retreat and it was just awesome. the setting is magnificent, we are in the middle of the mountains, from the terrace you can see the sea. It's a perfect place to relax and enjoy the Moroccan sun. The staff is just great, kind, welcoming, their food amazing. In short, a great place to rest.

I don‘t even know where to begin! An allover absolutely fabulous experience, from beginning to end. I‘m very glad we decided to do this yoga retreat, out of the millions of yoga retreats out there this was much better than expected. A special thanks to all the people involved, from yoga sessions through the food experience to simple organizational support. The location, the bed comfort, the pool, the garden, … the list goes on. Obviously everyone has a different experience, but I believe most people will appreciate the things and efforts on offer here.

Amazing value for money, the food that was included was really good, yummy and healthy, the riad was majestic, the yoga instructors were fabulous, the rooms were cosy and well equipped, the hosts will swap a lamp, or a pillow at request, the hosts are friendly and Elena has a wonderful knowledge of the surroundings, I really enjoyed the walk!! It was my first time in morocco, I didn't really know what to expect, but after this trip, I would recommend a visit to La vida surf to anyone!!
