Limited to a maximum of 16 guests each Yoga and meditation retreat and Yoga and meditation holiday is created with attention to detail. Take a short, magical journey from Agadir or Marrakesh through the foothills of the Atlas Mountains, Berber villages and the famous surfing village Taghazout to reach the Villa Surya.

Situated right at the famous Paradis Plage one of the longest and most taken care of beaches in the area, surrounded by the anti atlas mountains with its protected forest zone our boutique villa will transport you to another world with its exquisite handmade Arabic and Berber architecture, fragrant flowered gardens, unwinding sun-deck, sunset watch-out, charming rooms, relaxing hot tub, Swimming Pool 8x4m, Sauna and a kitchen full of Oriental delights. We have created an outstanding Yoga-Shala for you on our roof top overlooking the ocean and giving the opportunity to practice and meditate whilst enjoying the sunrise & sunset everyday.

The property ranges over 400 square meters from which 200 square meters are built and form the sleeping and living area inside on 3 different levels. The place consists of 2 villas which we connected. Villa Surya offers 9 sleeping rooms and can take up to 16 guests.

The common areas are spread across the villa. At the entry area we do have our famous swing. In the backyard we have our lovely eating area with its Zen-fountain and cactus oasis as well as the lounge area with a swimming pool 8x4 m. The 360° Sun-deck with its sunset watch out offers the perfect place to sun bath, watch the ocean or enjoy the Jacuzzi and Sauna. On the top floor you will also find our 90 square meter covered Yoga Shala.

The village is called Imiouaddar by the locals but more known as "Paradise Plage". A small fisher village directly at the ocean and anti atlas mountain. The perfect location for exploring a new culture in a safe and peaceful environment. Daily yoga and meditation practice, healthy vegetarian food and a beautiful surrounding make this holiday concept the perfect fit to relax, unwind and refill from your everyday life.

Yoga Shala

Shala is an ancient Sanskrit word for home, and when we created the Yoga Shala at Villa Surya this is exactly how we wanted you to feel from the moment you step inside. The tranquil space is spread across 75 square meters and comfortably fits 16 people with more than enough room to practice your flow. Situated on the rooftop of the villa, the Shala benefits from panoramic views of our surroundings, from the rugged mountains at the back to the crashing waves of the ocean to the front, so no matter what posture you find yourself in you will always be greeted with the natural beauty of our Moroccan landscape. Recently renovated, the space also ensures everything provided is new and of an extremely high quality, built to ensure you get the upmost from your time with us. You will find the space fully equipped with yoga mats and props and also air conditioned to ensure absolute comfort during your practice.

Meditation area and rooftop terrace

Just outside the Yoga Shala you will find our rooftop terrace and meditation area. With 360 degree views of the mountains and the ocean, the space is spread out across two levels and provides you with the perfect setting to spend the day getting lost in a book and soaking up the warm Moroccan sunshine on one of our sun loungers, relaxing your muscles after a long yoga session in the hot tub, or just taking some much needed time for quiet self-reflection in our secluded meditation corner. From sunrise to sunset the rooftop terrace is there to give you the space to relax and heal and get the most out of your Yoga and Meditation retreat at Villa Surya. This year we created a new chill out area for you and added a brand new swimming Pool. Float around the water, get a tan and unwind from your daily life.

Lounge area and swimming pool

The magical place to get lost with your new book or refreshing after a strong Yoga class or soak in the sun. Our pool is 8x4m and offers an infinity view over the cactus oasis and the natural zone at our Villa. Chill on our sun loungers or float around the pool.

Food

You will be served a daily delicious breakfast and dinner along with a light and healthy afternoon snack. All our meals are inspired by Oriental and Mediterranean cuisine and are freshly prepared on site daily by our talented chef.

We serve a yogic vegetarian/vegan seasonal menu with emphasis on local and organic produce. Our dishes are designed to give you all the carbohydrates, proteins and healthy fats that a yogi needs to get the most out of their practice and fuel them for a beautiful day under the Moroccan sun. The Moroccan kitchen is rich in vegetables and legumes with little diary so most of our dishes are vegan. Once a week there is the option to enjoy a fish tagine, but only if the whole group has no objections to fish being served.

If you have special dietary requirements/allergies, please do let us know ahead of your arrival so we can take care of you. Our amazing chef is well used to adapting recipes according to our guests needs.

Herbal Garden

Our beautiful herbal garden at the yoga Villa allows us to serve you fresh tea and dishes with home grown organic herbs. All our vegetables are provided by a local eco-agricultural farm near Sidi-Ifni to ensure the best healthy nutrition for our guests, and our fruit comes from the local souk in Agadir. We use their own flowers to make great fixes for the morning and you will find them even in your salads. The food served is healthy and will ensure you the right energy for all your activities.
