Aloha House

Everything

The minute I walked through the doors of Aloha house I felt it. Peace, calm and tranquility. I travelled with my friend and our room was beautiful, overlooking the river.

The welcome from Louise and Brian was so relaxed and we were 9 in total on this retreat. On Our first evening Louise brought us through an amazing guided meditation in their stunning yoga studio. That started the relaxation for the weekend. The Yoga was fabulous and so invigorating and the sound therapy was a first for me but I enjoyed it. There was a lovely mix of therapies and free time. We found the beautiful Rossbeigh beach and had a few gorgeous swims. The aerial yoga on our final day was such an experience and definitely put me out of my comfort zone but was thrilling. I had the privilege of experiencing a lomi lomi massage with Louise. This was a mind, body and spirit experience for me. I can’t describe the feeling but it was incredible and I will definitely have more of these massages. Thank you Louise 🙏🏼. Brian cooked beautiful vegan food for us and every meal was delicious. I wish I could have stayed for the week. Maybe that might happen next year ! Thank you all so much, I will be back

I travelled as a solo traveller. Such a sense of calm and love in Aloha House from the second you arrive. Louise and Brien are so warm and peaceful to be around. The house itself has wonderful smells, views and cosy seating areas to snuggle up with a book overlooking the river and forest. Food was delicious and so tasty! Lomi Lomi massage was the best massage I have ever received. The yoga, aerial yoga, Kambal yoga, sound healing and pilates was delivered with fluidity and encouragement to all levels. I have come away from this weekend in Aloha House feeling like I have found how to breathe again, renergised, healed and full of love for myself and the wonderful world around me! I could not stop smiling all the way back to Mayo in the car. I am so grateful and thankful to Louise and Brien for the opportunity to spend the weekend in their little oasis. It has changed the direction my life was taking for the better and I look forward to going back in the future. I have taken a little bit of their warmth, serenity and peace with me from the weekend! It has honestly opened my heart again. Namaste. ❤️

I loved everything from the beautiful clean room, beautiful views, delicious food, amazing classes and amazing massage. Loved the way th36 classes had me feeling calm and relaxed

I went on my own and didn’t know what to expect. The building and surroundings were beautiful. My room was spotlessly clean and so comfortable. The gardens and walks around the area picturesque. Food was mouth watering and plenty of. The yoga time and instructors were amazing. Conscious of everyone’s levels and worked with each. Very calming and also pushed you a little when needed. Cannot say enough got so much from the whole weekend. I will definitely go again.

what a wonderful experience this retreat exceeded my expectations. i have been on several retreats in the last few years, from the moment you walk through the door of this lovely hotel you feel a warm sense and glow to be met by the lovely Louise and Brian who go out of their way to make you comfortable, they really couldn't do enough for you with warmth and kindness, there is so much to talk about !! Rooms are pristine clean warm and very comfortable,food cooked by Brian was absolutely exquisite and plenty to satisfy any appetite all vegetarian and Vegan with delicious flavor. The sound Bath meditation really works to help you switch off, clear your mind and reflect peacefully a lovely experience. the yoga classes were suitable for all levels and skill sets, the Ariel Yoga is fabulous and again suitable for all levels and experience I was surprised l could do so much considering l had never done it before and was nursing injured ligaments in my ankle Louise is a great instructor and very mindful of each individual.

I also had a Lomi Lomi massage from Louise a Hawaiian massage which works on balancing and aligning the spiritual, mental, physical, and emotional aspects of your body reducing stress, it was all of that.

You will feel relaxed but energized, uplifted in both mind and body and go home wishing you could come back the following week. thank you to everyone at Aloha House.......namaste

The aerial yoga and the facilities. The sound bath. The group of people.

Really welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. I joined the yoga retreat for the weekend and it was really special. Great mix of different yoga styles, Aerial yoga was a lot of fun, mediation and the food was unreal. Brian is an amazing cook! Thank you for an amazing weekend I will remember 🥰

Louise and Brian are wonderful hosts and have created the perfectly balanced yoga retreat weekend at their gorgeous peaceful

home overlooking the Laune river in Killorglin. We received a warm welcome on Friday night, and the first of many delicious home-prepared vegetarian meals. The food was top class, we looked forward to each meal and the plates were invariably polished off, the group unanimous that the food quality was second to none. The yoga classes were varied over the weekend, wirh iyengar, hatha and aerial yoga on offer to suit all abilities. Louise is an excellent instructor, and her calm, good-humored approach put us all at ease and encouraged even the least experienced of us to enjoy trying aerial yoga, and surprising ourselves with what was possible. It was great fun throughout, lots of laughter and a very safe, encouraging environment. For the more experienced, there were options given to try more complex positions, and the balance worked well for everyone. We enjoyed some very special soundbath meditations at night, which have to be experienced. The accommodation was lovely and comfortable, and the overall atmosphere was perfectly relaxed and peaceful. This weekend represents excellent value for money and having been on several retreats over the years, this was by far my favourite. I hope to come back soon.

Everything. Wonderful instructors variety of activities welcoming atmosphere great food family setting great space to relax and fun elements to it all.

I practiced 2 different yoga styles, experienced aerial yoga and took a deep dive into a sound bath. Incredible weekend!

Everything was amazing. The smell as you enter the property, the decor, the room and facilities (Barrys tea and biscuits!). It was the perfect combination of yoga work outs, stretches and relaxation. I feel that I learnt alot and that my home practice will improve, I fell in love with aerial yoga and will look for classes here and the meditations were stunning. The food was delicious, the pace was perfect and the atmosphere and energy was warming and healing.

I booked a yoga retreat for last weekend at the Aloha House with Louis and Brian and I’m already looking forward to going back. Everything about it was marvellous. I enjoyed every bit of the programme, it was so complete. The yoga classes were fulfilling and relaxing at the same time. Louis was delightful and I loved her energy and the confidence she spreads. The food that Brian cooked for us was amazing, each meal was better than the other. The sound healing sessions were renewing and magical, and the views from the house were beautifully soothing. Absolutely loved my experience here and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in yoga retreats.
