"Heerlijke vakantie"
De locatie is echt heel fijn. Met 3 anderen op een kamer in stapelbedden, maar wel pal. naast de zee waardoor ik heel goed sliep. De groep is vrij groot waarmee je surft en eet. Maar er zit altijd wel iemand bij waar je naartoe trekt en een klik mee hebt als je alleen bent. De sfeer is heel relaxt en laid back. Ook het personeel. Iedereen is vriendelijk.

Le cadre dans lequel s est déroulé le séjour était ressourçant et dépaysant. L accès à la mer à pied, une piscine avec un espace transat pour la détente sont appréciables. La décoration, l ambiance que dégage la villa permettent de déconnecter totalement avec la vie trépidante extérieure.
L accueil deJinane, notre hôte, permet de découvrir la chaleur du Maroc.
Prendre les repas en extérieur ,en commun, avec les professeurs et les stagiaires permettent une bonne communication . Les sujets évoqués sur la vie au Maroc étaient très intéressants et enrichissants.
La cuisine proposée par le chef était de qualité et variée.
Les cours de yoga étaient intéressants et accessibles pour une débutante comme moi.

"A true scape from this frenetic world"
Staying at this surf camp boutique hotel was an experience I'll never forget. The staff made me feel like I was part of a family from the moment I arrived—so warm, welcoming, and truly caring. The surf instructors were incredibly skilled and patient, guiding me with expertise and encouragement that boosted my confidence on the waves. Every day felt like a new adventure, but what really touched my heart was the sense of belonging and connection. This place isn’t just a hotel; it’s a home filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories. I can’t wait to come back.

Es war alles sehr gut organisiert, professionelle Yoga und Surf Coaches, die Atmosphäre ist locker leicht, das Essen ist sehr lecker und gesund zugleich, dabei gab es viel Auswahl für jeden Geschmack. Und natürlich nicht zu vergessen, die schöne Lage, wo man nicht nur die Ozeanaussicht sondern auch den Sonnenaufgang und Untergang genießen kann. Einfach nur traumhaft.

Het golfsurfen was erg leuk om zelf maar ook in combinatie met een groep en instructeurs te ervaren.

De yogalessen van Olga waren er goed en hielpen tegen de spierpijn van het golfsurfen.

Ich hatte eine tolle Woche im Yoga Retreat und meine Erwartungen wurden auf jeden Fall übertroffen. Das Verhältnis zwischen Freizeit und angebotenen Aktivitäten war super. So konnte man einfach mal nur in der Villa entspannen mit Sauna, Pool und Whirlpool oder tolle Ausflüge unternehmen, wie zum Beispiel ins Paradise Valley. Hanane hat sich sehr viel Mühe gegeben, alles nach unseren Wünschen zu organisieren. Das Highlight waren auf jeden Fall die Yogastunden morgens und abends und das tolle und vielseitige Essen. Nush ist eine tolle Yogalehrerin, zu deren Stunden ich auch gerne zuhause gehen würde. Ich kann den Aufenthalt im Retreat jedem nur empfehlen, der ein wenig abschalten und entspannen möchten.

"Moroccan Magic "
The moment you step into Surya Villa you know you’re in for a treat 🥰All the staff are polite friendly, warm and considerate . The atmosphere is tranquil and calm -decorated in beautiful authentic Moroccan style. Everything is extremely clean . The rooms are simple -fresh and bright-we had a balcony with sea view . The shower was efficient and hot any time of day and luxurious smelling toiletries are provided. Food was amazing -everything cooked from scratch , varied with nothing unhealthy and beautifully presented . We ate outside at night altogether in a pretty courtyard.
The yoga teachers Maja and Nush are both talented and dedicated and their styles compliment each other perfectly. They have a way of making everyone feel cared about and teaching is of a very high standard. The classes are challenging but inspiring. Every class was different . I loved the way philosophy was brought into the practice by both teachers in a different way. I was fortunate to have a Reiki session with Maja and felt enlightened by the whole experience. Other workshops are on offer and trips to see the area available . Would recommend the Hammam experience-such a treat and the best massage I’ve ever had !
The area is unspoilt and quiet -with a sandy beach a stones throw away -lovely for walks or a swIm in the warm sea .
I would definitely love to return to Surya again -we met some amazing likeminded people from all over Europe making
Thank you so much to all🧘♂️

Villa Surya is tucked away in the hills but is a short walk to the beach. The host Hanane is lovely and makes you feel at home the moment you arrive. You have 2 daily yoga classes taken my Maja and Nush. They are amazing yogi teachers. The food is delicious and there’s plenty of it. I would recommend Villa Surya to anyone. I loved it!

"Wonderful yoga retreat"
I joined Villa Surya’s, 4 day yoga retreat program and I am very satisfied. The location and the facilities are amazing, a lot of attention to details and all of it helps you feel relaxed and at home.
The receptionist, Hanane, assisted us with all our requests and helped us with ideas for the activities between the yoga sessions. It made our lives very easy.
The yoga instructors, Maya and Nush definitely rised to the occasion. Maya introduced us to a more gentle and spiritual type of yoga that I have not tried before. I especially liked the yoga Nidra session with her. Nush on the other hand, focussed more on movement and functional asanas. I enjoyed the fresh perspective on her approach and some new challenging poses.
Nush and Maya completed each other resulting in a well rounded yoga experience.
Definitely recommend the retreat!

"Pure relaxation"
The house is just wonderful - there's plenty of space to withdraw and relax. All the stuff is incredibly sociable, organized and friendly. Everything is absolutely spotless and tidy. The rooms and bathrooms are cleaned every day. The bed is made too!
The yoga classes are perfectly harmonized with rather intense flows in the morning and more unwinding in the evening.
The food was incredibly tasty and always healthy. I loved the community aspect of eating at the same table and sharing food with each other. Luckily I was able to share my experience with a superb group, which made the stay even better.
There's a wide variety of activities to pick from in case you want to have some action.
I could've stayed there for way longer, and will definitely come back again in the future. It was a remarkable experience.

"Perfect retreat to recharge and get some autumn sun"
Villa Surya is exactly what I needed to recharge and experience Morocco.
I’m a complete beginner and I was made to feel included and the classes accommodated my limited knowledge. Particularly Salomé, she used a more workshop themed approach which I really appreciated as a complete beginner.
Hanane is a great host and makes you feel so welcome, it’s a very relaxed place and has a home away from home feeling.
The food was delicious and there was plenty, I didn’t struggle not having lunch as I normally don’t eat breakfast. The breakfast is a brunch style and is very substantial.
I was extremely lucky to meet a great group of women which made my holiday extra special.
I had an amazing experience and I’m already planning my next visit. This was my first trip to Morocco, on a yoga retreat and as a solo traveller. It will not be my last.

Die Hotelanlage ist einfach unglaublich schön. Es gibt so viele schöne Plätze (Dachterrasse, Pool, Bar, Strand usw.), wo man sich hinsetzten und die Zeit geniessen kann. Das Essen ist lecker und das Frühstück war jeden Morgen mein Highlight. Die Yoga- und Surfstunden waren super die LehrerInnen sind toll und machen einen super Job. Leider waren die Wellen an drei Tagen nicht so toll. Trotzdem haben die Surflehrer alles gegeben, damit wir trotzdem ein paar Wellen erwischen konnten und unsere Zeit geniessen konnten. Wir waren eine kleine Gruppe, was mir als Anfängerin sehr geholfen hat, da die Lehrer viel Zeit hatten und man schnell Hilfe bekam.
Alle Angestellten sind einfach unendlich freundlich und hilfsbereit.
Die Zimmer sind sehr schön und sehr sauber, jeden Tag wird alles blitzblank geputzt.

"Ein unvergesslicher, erholsamer Yogaurlaub"
In der modernen, liebevoll eingerichteten Villa Surya fühlten wir uns insbesondere durch die angenehme, fürsorgliche Betreuung des sympathischen marokkanischen Personals und mit den leckeren frisch zubereiteten und abwechslungsreichen kulinarischen Genüssen aufs Angenehmste verwöhnt.
Die Villa bietet zahlreiche Rückzugsorte der verschiedensten Art, z.B. eine weitläufige Dachterrasse mit Jakuzzi inclusive Meerblick, einen Pool mit Liegen und Sonnenschirmen...
Von allen Yogalehrerinnen wurden wir in abwechslungsreicher professioneller Weise meditativ sowie muskulös gefördert und gefordert, was anspornend und mega entspannend war.
Der Transfer zwischen dem Flughaften Agadir und der Villa wurde verlässlich organisiert und funktionierte super. Auch alle anderen Angebote wie die Massage (welche sehr zu empfehlen ist) oder Tagesausflüge wurden rechtzeitig besprochen und organisatorisch abgesichert.
Zum Meer ist es nicht weit, nur einige Minuten über eine leicht befahrene Straßen hinweg. Der Strand ist wunderschön. Das Strandrestaurant ist sehr zu empfehlen, das Preis- Leistungsverhältnis stimmt und die angebotenen Speisen sind lecker.
Insgesamt möchten wir dem gesamten Team von ganzem Herzen für diesen wunderschönen Urlaub danken.

Everything was perfect. The villa is a real place to calm down and enjoy time with urself and a book. I stayed in a private room, it was lovely. The village itself is not the prettiest but the beach is nearby and i stayed almost the whole time in the villa. The yoga classes were fantastic, loved both teachers!
What i have to acknowledge the most is the food, absolutely AMAZING! Such a variety and so tasteful, everything vegetarian or vegan.

"Happy place mit grandions"
Das Surfcamp hat definitiv alle meine Erwartungen übertroffen. Das Frühstück kann man sich selber zusammenstellen und es ist sehr reichhaltig und war ein perfekter Start in den Tag.
Der Lunch wurde durch die Surflehrer mit zum Strand genommen und auch wenn man nicht Surfen war, wurde der Lunch dann vor Ort liebevoll auf einem
Teller angerichtet. Das Abendessen bestand jeden Tag aus 3 Gängen und war abwechslungsreich und man konnte einen Einblick in die marokkanische Küche bekommen.
Das Serviceteam ist der Wahnsinn. Sie haben alle eine Passion für ihren Beruf und das Wohl des Gastes stand zu jeder Zeit im Vordergrund. Seit Tag 1 wussten sie alle Namen der Teilnehmer und so kann man sich nur wohl fühlen.
Die Zimmer sind gemütlich und sauber. Die Reinungskräfte machen einen super Job, zudem
Sind sie sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich.
Insgesamt hatte ich die Beste Woche an diesem wunderschönen Ort und ich freue mich schon auf das nächste mal, denn das wird es definitiv geben. Egal in welcher Verfassung man dort anreist, wenn man abreist hat man definitiv ein Lächeln auf den Lippen und ganz viele unvergessliche Momente im Gepäck.

"Relaxing and so organised "
The Villa is beautiful, with extremely clean rooms and bathrooms, tasteful modern Moroccan decor and has so many lovely spots to sunbathe, read, take a sauna, drink tea etc. the yoga twice per day was great, a mix of slow vinyasa and yin/restorative with a good focus on the yogic philosophy and mindfulness and all the props you could ever want. The food is incredible!! The freshest salads and breads and everything tastes delicious, presented beautifully and caters for vegans very well. Both breakfast and dinner feel like 3 course buffet style meals. The host and teacher sit with you to eat so it feels like you’re staying with a family. Kaouta and Hanane organise any taxis, trips you wanted as soon as you mention it with such speed and efficiency you don’t have to worry about anything. Due to the shared meals and sharing circles in yoga class solo travellers get to know people easily and find travel conpanions for day trips to Marrakech, surfing lessons, hammam visits etc.
I highly recommend this holiday to anyone looking for luxury relaxation with a personal touch.

"Villa Surya provided the yoga retreat I wanted"
Villa Surya is such a lovely place to have your yoga retreat. I had a great time there.
What I appreciate most are the staff and food. Hanane is such a caring and considerate girl who is doing more than what a receptionist should do to take care of us. The yoga practice with Maya and Nush were excellent. I like we practice the strength along the sunrise and do some yin yoga along the sunset. I like we share about each other's thoughts after our practice, which make guests more connected.
The food in Villa Surya are top notch. You can expect different menu each time which are both healthy, delicious and very instagramable. I am always very excited to have meal and had a great chat with Hanane, yoga instructor and other guests. I am very lucky to make a few good connection with the guests there.
Regarding the construction next door, I have prepared for it before coming. It still has minor work going on. However, Hannae has always been very helpful and try her best to move us to the their another hotel in Taghazout where have a better view on seaside and rooftop yoga if the construction is going on. I had a great time there as well.

I enjoyed a week at Vila Suraya where I stayed for yoga retreat. People who work there made this stay really special, site manager is very caring and tries to accommodate all guests requests to her best, yoga teachers are great - you get much more than just yoga classes there. Facilites on sights are more than enough, but you can get to a nearby village by taxi in 15 minutes in case you need shops, restaurants or more walking places. The food was really tasty, although I am not vegetarian, I enjoyed it a lot. All in all, it is a great place to stay and to disconnect.

"Beautiful seaside location and excellent surfing"
I had a fantastic stay at DFrost Almugar.
The place is gorgeous. It's right on the seafront with an infinity pool and terrace that look out over the waves. At the top there's a separate yoga terrace again with panoramic sea views, where you do your morning and evening classes, the former while the sun rises and the dawn chorus breaks out which is incredible.
The staff were lovely and welcoming, and very helpful. Surf tuition is generally good, and they give you a lot of time out doing it during the day. There's also an option to go sandboarding or to the (rather amazing) skate park perched up on the hill above the town if conditions are not good for surfing.
The food is good, particularly the breakfasts which are huge and set you up well for the day ahead.
NB: A lot of the reviews mention noisy building works on a neighbouring property, but these had all been completed by the time of my stay.

The food was lovely and beautifully presented, breakfast was a time where everyone came together including the yoga instructor. They mostly accommodates my unusual food intolerances, sometimes you just need to check before eating.

"Almost perfect "
The accommodation is lovely and the location is superb; a two minute walk to a wide sandy beach. There are dogs, camels and horses everywhere. I loved the fact that Imi Ouadder is where Moroccans go for their beach holiday. It felt ‘ real ‘ and not some tourist trap. It’s not all tidied up and watered down.
The yoga with Nush was absolutely spot on. I Was thirty years older than everyone else but I never felt left out of the yoga and the instructor was always considerate about everyones limitations. I slept well. I love Morocco and the Atlantic waves pounding into the beach made me feel very free. I plan on returning as it’s a safe and secure way to have a solo trip. The staff are kind and helpful. The food was delicious

I stayed at the villa 1 night, I had 1 evening meal on arrival and next day brunch. The food was lovely and the outside seating area excellent. During my 1 week stay I met three different instructors. They were all very good and flexible with delivering the classes, acording to my needs.
Each instructor had a different speciality and it was nice to learn a lot of new ways to practice yoga, using a variety of props.
The hotel we were moved to did not offer yoga on Thursdays, so we were offered a day surfing as compensation. I really enjoyed the activity, it was well organised.

Von der Unterkunft, dem Essen und der liebevollen Betreuung durch die Hosts Kaoutar & Khadija über die Tagestouren, Massagen und zusätzlichen Angebote bis hin zu den tollen Yoga Lehrerinnen Amy & Gwen, dem Yoga Loft, dem Pool und den zahlreichen Dachterrassen - es war einfach nur sensationell. Eine Woche fühlt sich an wie drei Wochen Tiefenentspannung!!!

The villa is lovely, clean, loaded with amenities such as sauna, jacuzzi available for use at anytime. teas, coffees, juices available all day is a nice touch too.
But this place's best asset is certainly is it's staff. Both of our hosts were sweet, attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely interested and willing to please :)
Both yoga instructors were good.
But Gwen certainly stood out, not only with her excellent classes which were beyond any expectation, but her lovely bubbly personality, as well as genuine interest in each of her students regarding yoga and otherwise.

"Thoroughly recommend"
Accommodation - clean, well decorated (both modern and Moroccan) good size to allow both personal space and to get to know some of the other guests. My room was small-ish but cosy. Perfect for 1. Bed - the best I had in Morocco overall - more soft and lovely duvet for the colder nights.
Food - yummy healthy and plentiful. Really thought through and beautifully served. The way everyone sits down together outside in the courtyard is very special.
Yoga - just wonderful - this is NOT a place to come and do instagram-power yoga but definitely one for meditative mindful and self-kind yoga. It has really opened up my practice. Both teachers Amy and Gwen were lovely and very accomplished teachers.
Other activites- I really enjoyed the hammam ! Very decent price too. Otherwise it's a lovely place to relax - multiple areas and the pool.
Staff - very welcoming and helpful.
Surrounding area - good for an explore and amble around, not a tourist hub. Lovely to walk along the beach. Not far from other more bustling tourist areas (Taghazout).

I loved the yoga retreat.
Especially the yoga classes with Amy.
She explained everything in so many ways that there was an opportunity to follow the yoga class for everyone. The massage she gave, the Thai massage was one of the best I ever had. She is such an inspiration in so many ways. I'll also would like to give a huge compliment to Kadija, the host. She made everyone feel very welcome. Kadijha is very professional and kind. She made the villa feel like home. She was always there when we needed something. It was my birthday during the retreat and they even made me a special birthday cake so we could celebrate it all together. Thank you to the whole crew, you are doing a great job. Namaste.

"Lovely Moroccan retreat in a sleepy village "
I was looking for a yoga retreat on the coast of Morocco, and found what I was looking for. The day begins with sunrise flow yoga before a healthy yet amazingly tasty vegetarian breakfast. You’ve a few hours to go to the beach (only a few minutes walk away), or visit the local town, or even chill in the pool and jacuzzi. There are lovely seafood restaurants nearby. Then there’s sunset yoga before an innovative and amazingly dinner. The hosts are fantastic and there are daily excursions to choose from (typically €20-€30). Great and moderately priced yoga retreat.

I was staying 8 days at Villa Surya and had a wonderful time there. The staff is so welcoming and friendly, food is excellent, great location.

The yoga was great, varied, and alternatives were given based on guest limitation, customer focus was great of both instructors. Resort was very comfortable and well taken care off. The set-up of having breakfast and dinner together was lovely, great conversations during meals. The hamam treatment was excellent.

Die Yogastunden waren sehr gut aufgebaut, abwechslungsreich und jeden Tag anders. Die beiden Lehrerinnen Lottie und Amy verkörpern in meinen Augen Yoga.

Ich habe noch hier sofort wie zuhause gefühlt. Das Essen war neben dem Yoga immer mein Tages Highlight. Super lecker!

The yoga classes with Amy and Lottie were very inspiring and relaxing, the massage, the time in the villa, and let's not forget the food! Everything was delicious and more!
The team was always here for questions and it was nice and fun to spend time with them during meals.
I was here in July where it's apparently low season, so it was only me and another guest, so I could benefit a lot from the almost private classes :)

"Unbelievably good"
I am a novice to yoga and went to Villa Surya with reasonably high expectations. The facilities are really nice but the highlight are the staff and the food. The yoga instructor is very knowledgeable and adapted to my needs, and really put me through a 'crash' course in 7 days. The house manager is very caring and looked after my every need. And the food is unbelievable good, particularly if like me you had learnt not to expect too much from a vegetarian offer. Villa Surya is also run in a professional way, and the high standards the owner clearly sets are felt everywhere.

"A slice of paradise "
I arrived with no preconceptions, apart for a small amount of trepidation, having never taken part in yoga before. I was in need of rest, relaxation and a detox from urban life.
All these and more I found on the retreat. The retreat was a delight and it felt I was being welcomed into a family and was immediately put at ease.
The yoga instructors were mindful of my novice status and included this in the sessions but in such a way that didn’t lessen the practice for others and allowed me to feel part of the group.
The accommodation perfect enough places and spaces to settle costly and if wanted to do one’s own thing with out being in the way oaf any other, be it read a book, catch a few rays or play/practice the guitar (which I took with me).
The beautiful beach is on a few minuets walk away.
As for the food delicious and the shared meal times with our yoga instructors and hosts a delight full of conversation and laughter.
So at the bottom of it all highly recommended and I will be returning..

I could not imagine that my stay at Villa Surya would have been such an amazing experience. All the staff give you a warm welcome and follow you in your trip with discretion but attention and care. The house itself it's a lovely villa created with attention to detail, airy with a warm feeling. The food is amazing, fresh, tasty, and healthy, and they also accommodated my intollerances creating alternatives if needed. The yoga teachers are proper professionals, they help me to get back to yoga after an injury and for this I'm really thankful to both of them. The morning is a vigorous class with always some meditation at start and end, the evening is a more relaxed class that takes you into a different galaxy. It's located in a small holiday houses village and 2 minutes from a huge, lovely beach which is never too full. looking at the fishers' boats arriving at the beach with a cloud of seagulls on top of them was my favourite activity. I liked the location because is quiet and this is what you need in a yoga retreat! I would HIGHLY recommend Villa Surya to anyone looking for a yoga retreat, it's been just perfect and I'm already looking forward to go back there again! Thanks to Kadija (sorry for the spelling if wrong!), Eloise and Amy, you made my stay special :)

"An oasis of calm"
I had a fantastic time at Villa Surya. I arrived feeling in desperate need of a re-set and left feeling completely renewed and energised. It's a beautiful villa with excellent facilities and friendly, welcoming staff who create a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere. Everything you might want has already been thought of, the yoga teaching was excellent and the food was healthy, nourishing and delicious. The location is a short walk from a huge beach which was never too busy. There's not a lot in the town, but it's easy to get to Taghazout or elsewhere if you want a change of scenery.

I stayed at Villa Surya for 10 days and had a fantastic time. The yoga classes were great, especially Eloïse's very dynamic vinyasa flow classes in the morning. The food was super delicious and gluten-free options were available, which makes traveling with gluten intolerance so much easier. Also the staff was really friendly and definitely part of making my stay so special. I felt at home from the first day onwards! Thank you again for the amazing and very relaxing time!

"A relaxing week at Villa Surya"
Words do not describe what a fabulous place this is. My daughter and I were pretty stressed and in need of a relaxing week. We honestly couldn't have found a better place to go. Everything was perfect. Villa Surya is an easy drive from Agadir airport, we were picked up by the Villa's driver which made our arrival hassle-free. The villa is simply but tastefully furnished in Moroccan style with beautiful tiles throughout. There are different courtyards and roof terraces, a swimming pool, hot tub and plenty of sunbeds. The matrasses on the beds are comfortable. The staff were delightful, professional and always helpful, making us feel relaxed and truly at home. The meals were wonderful, mostly whole food plant based and so delicious that I can't imagine meat-eaters even missing meat. I don't think I've ever stayed anywhere with better food - the presentation was a work of art, all on beautiful Moroccan plates. The yoga studio was a dream - light and airy with the sound of the waves from one side and birdsong from the hills behind. The 2 yoga teachers were both lovely and professional. Private sessions were also available. There was plenty of time during the day for other activities. We went to Paradise Valley, to the hammam and to the soukh in Agadir. It was also lovely walking along the beach or lying by the pool with a book. For breakfast and dinner all the guests sit round a big table together, soon getting to know each other, which was definitely an added bonus.

Staff Hadija and Karen were very helpful and nice to get to know. Instructors Eloise and Adam both brought their own individuality and expertise to the classes. I was glad for the variety of styles and movements provided in the classes.
Perhaps the best part was getting to know the other guests and late night jacuzzi/sauna parties :)

They were always there to accommodate our needs. Thanks for accommodating our vegan dietary wishes!

"Best present for my soul "
Yoga: the instructors are professional, also warm hearted and caring. There are 2 classes per day, sunrise and sunset time. I feel grounded and fullfilled after yoga.
Facility: pool, sauna, jaccuzzi, roof top terrace for sunbathing. I can enjoy doing nothing just to relax inside the Villa. The villa itself make me feel like home. Room is new and clean. Bed is comfortable. Sleep really well every night.
Food: Delicious and authentic vegetarian meals. Every day menu is different. Plus fresh fruits, tea and drinks are available all day long. I feel my guts become very healthy.
Extra points: There is a daily schedule everyone has to follow, I feel great to wake up early for yoga and end the day with yoga. Me, yoga instructors and other guests eat and do yoga together everyday. So at the end, we become like a big family.

"Tensions fall away"
Villa Surya was genuinely transformative. The villa is situated at the back of Imi Ouaddar, a small 2nd world fishing village with an expansive sandy beach. We had a physically challenging yang-style Ashtanga- and power-based class in the morning, and a yin-style class in the evening using techniques drawn from Yin, Nidra and restorative yoga. I gained a lot of excellent technical information from the former, and entered into deep and often strange states of consciousness in the latter, particularly in the restorative yoga sessions in which we would literally hang out for long periods in a Shala bathed in the bronze light of the glorious sunsets that seemed to occur every evening. The food was astonishing: seated in the beautiful courtyard, we had, for breakfast alone, freshly-made smoothies and juices, porridge made with coconut milk and dried fruits, fresh fruit, vast salads, bean patties, a tray of root vegetables cooked in turmeric and honey, crushed nuts in Argan oil ... I also went mountain trekking and surfing, but the greatest discovery of all was SUP yoga. Padding far out from shore on a SUP (Stand Up Paddle) board, I experienced moments of clarity in which all unnecessary and habitual tensions fell away. In many ways, that sums up the whole trip. Thanks to all the staff at Villa Surya, especially Adam and Amy the two experienced English yoga instructors, the cook, and to Mama Dominica, our Hungarian host who combines efficiency with exuberance.

"A beautiful place with great potential but poorly managed"
The highlight of my trip were the yoga sessions with Adam. Each class was rich and varied in style and intensity. I also liked that Adam recited us mindful words at the end of each session. I felt good during each class with no exception, even when being weak during sickness.
The beach house is quite nice and well-maintained, with beautiful large terrace, located on the water front and in the cleaner side of the village.
Dinners were varied and hearty, some really delicious (Tajine, barbecue) but lunch was only self-packed sandwiches from breakfast.
Euro is widely accepted by locals at 1 to 10. Payment at the property is possible by credit card, also by cash but with exact amount.
I was very excited before going on this trip and should say that overall I had many enjoyable moments and met great people, however, remained very disappointed with the staff and management’s attitude towards a very serious issue of people getting ill in mass. Therefore, I wouldn’t recommend this retreat to friends. Those who decide to take it should consider paying for surf classes on the spot as illness is highly probable while nobody is flexible to replace the prepaid classes with other activities.

"Several poorly handled days"
Nice location and some of the hosts were more helpful than others.
The transfer to Taghazout and out was good.
The yoga classes by Adam were excellent.

"Sjaan and Elena"
The yoga instructors (Sjaan and Elena) were true professionals. Excellent attention to detail, corrected postures, explained reasons for the postures and gave meaning to the practise. The massages were excellent. It was Sjaan and Elena who made the experience better than expected. I think that this should be acknowledged. I will follow them to Santorini!
The host (Dominika) did an amazing job of settling everyone in, making them feel welcome, was always there when you had a question and made sure everyone had what they needed.

Das Essen war super, die Mitarbeiter alle sehr sehr freundlich, wodurch ein schönes Gruppengefühl im Haus entstand. Die ruhige Lage war perfekt und die Tatsache, dass es jederzeit Kaffe, Tee und Obst gab war wichtig und gut!
Insgesamt tolle Menschen, alle scheinen Spaß an der Arbeit zu haben, wodurch man sich dort rundum wohlfühlen konnte.

De hostess Dominika van de villa was een positieve bom van energie. Onwijs leuke meid en niks is haar te veel. Dat maakte mijn trip nog meer compleet. Ook waren de yogaleraresses Sjaan en Elena ook erg vriendelijk. Ze helpen je goed met je houdingen en staan open om je vanalles te leren.
Het eten is ook perfect. Heel gevarieerd, heel gezond en ze zorgen heel goed voor je. Al het personeel is zeer vriendelijk en ze helpen je graag.
De villa is heel groot en schoon. Elke dag maken ze je bed op en maken ze de badkamer schoon. Het is een hele fijne villa. Ik heb zeer genoten!

"An amazing time!!"
The time at Dfrost Yoga and Surf was more than expected. My sister and me spent 8 amazing days in Dfrost Yoga and Surf and we didn't t wanted to leave.
We were surrounded by lovely people!
The Yoga class with Lisa was excellent and we were very happy that we came at that time when she was there. Lisa is a wonderful person, speechless...
The surf instructors are very kind, responsible, motivating and good surf teachers. We felt in good hands. Thank you for motivating us and taking my fear ;-) We had a very good time with you guys. You all do a good job.
Many thanks to everybody working in the house!!
Hope to see you soon!

"A sunny break to relax and be a healthy yogi"
Yoga lessons were very good. The shala house, the rooftop, the food, the spirit of the villa, the proximity to the ocean, the service, the kindness of people, the relaxation that come necessarily !

"Great retreat but cold in January and February "
The atmosphere and food were amazing. Our hostess Dominika was very friendly and helpful, we loved her. One of our yoga teachers, Helena, was very good —the right balance between guidance and respect for your limits while stimulating you to challenge yourself. Wifi was OK. The beach is beautiful and perfect for long walks.

"Super friendly hosts, outstanding food"
Location was super accessible to local amenities.

I absolutely loved the diversity in everything. The breakfast, dinner, yoga classes as well as the wonderful people staying there. Our hostess was absolutely wonderful and so energetic and smiley, that you could not avoid being affected. After only a few days in the Villa Surya, it felt like I had been there for a year. That's how relaxed you'll be when your day consist of nothing but yoga, good food and total relaxation on either the roof terrace, the beach or in the jacuzzi.

"A perfect place for a break "
Alles.
I just loved it. It helped that i didnot set much expectations. I was tired from work, from the dark gray sky, and i went for the blue sky, the sun, the daily yoga exercises, the all-in service. I got that all and that was indeed very comforting. But also, i soon fell in love with the simpleness of life there, in a small village where people still smile from their hearts and where i could still stroke dogs and cats living in open air. There was not much to do and that quietness brought me happiness in such a simple way. The house and its people take very good care of us guests. Not just in a professioanl way like i'm used to in hotels, but more in a kind, sweet way like with family and dear friends. The yoga teachers bring the special spirit to the house, and 3 hours of yoga with their kindness, together with other guests is uplifting. Last but not least, the staff who clean the rooms, prepare food, clean the fountain...i donot see them a lot but always enjoy their gentle kindness when i do.
Interactions with other guests was a big bonus point, though it was not my intention to seek social connections actively. Things flow naturally in the house and among people. It is a place filled with gentle happiness.
Everybody will have a unique experience with this holiday I believe. I am very grateful for mine being so perfect, and wish that you find what you are looking for.

"Great week of strenuous relaxation!"
Yoga classes - went to two a day and they were great. Lots of variety and talked through each move and pose to get the most out of it. Yoga Ryan was helpful and made the classes really enjoyable.
Surfing - the instructors were just great. Ibrahim is a natural teacher - patient, calm, kind, and determined for you to succeed. Hussain was also kind and patient, dedicated to helping us improve and helped with tips and advice throughout the whole day in the water. Kamal was entertaining and pushed us hard.

"If you are looking to disconnect, this is the place for you"
The food was outstanding. I had no idea what to expect going vegetarian, but it was so easy, I didn't even miss the meat. The location was very nice as well. It wasn't as busy as Taghazout, so going to the beach was nice and hearing the sounds of the waves and children playing while doing yoga was so peaceful. The staff was also wonderful and I really felt welcomed by the entire group. My goals for the trip was to interact with as many people as possible and improve my yoga practice, which I definitely was able to do, so in this sense the stay was what I was looking for.

The place is nice, clean and near the beautiful beach. Laura the co-host was friendly and helpful (thanks for arranging our boarding passes). I really enjoyed the variety of yoga styles by Sjaan and Katrina. The atmosphere was easy going (there were also ashtrays...and I let go of a fag or two!). The vegetarian food was also good, breakfast and dinner were always different.

"Amazing place for totally switching off"
Lovely hosts and yoga teachers, the food is wonderful and the whole atmosphere is really relaxing. They have a great roof terrace with jacuzzi for views of the night sky and the ocean. And I really enjoyed the surf lesson and the hammam- definitely recommended! Went beyond my expectations- the only problem was that I didn't stay longer!
