"Suited all levels, beautiful Island, experienced teacher"
I was really impressed with this yoga retreat.
The accommodation is full of character, a quiet, comfortable, basic space with plenty of corners to read and facilities. In particular I loved the invigorating outdoor shower! An eco conscious retreat where recycling and water conservation are taken seriously.
I found the yoga was excellent. Wendy challenged me more than my teachers at home and I was free to step out of my comfort zone a bit, and I was surprised how good this felt. Wendy is highly experienced and the adjustments she offered made me feel safe and cared for. Some of the poems and music really spoke to me, and they were delivered in such a way that emotional release felt natural and easy. This isn’t something that comes easy to me usually so it probably did me some good - and I’m grateful to Wendy for that!
On the final day I felt comfortable doing my own lower energy routine alongside the class. There was no pressure from Wendy to do the advanced poses but equally if you want a challenge that’s supported and encouraged!
I also enjoyed Neil’s food and conversation. The food provided on the retreat was the best I had on the island, and I ate out at some very nice restaurants.
To top of off, a lovely set of people stayed at the retreat.
Maybe I will return in future ! Thank you!

"Great Yoga & Breakfast in Ibiza"
Lotus Pad was really nice, I felt like home staying there. The house is really beautiful and relaxing in the middle of the countryside, but near everything you need. I stayed in the caravan and was so cute and comfortable. The yoga classes with Wendy were so good, I learnt a lot this week, she is a really good teacher. Also she was so nice and careful if you need anything. The food in the breakfast was so tasty an healthy, perfect for practice. I loved staying there, I will go back 100%.

"Short getaway for tired mum"
Wendy is a very experienced yoga teacher and is able to offer individual guidance on poses, breath and yoga philosophy. Breakfasts also amazing and I loved staying in the little van. Great location, a 10 to 20 min drive from everywhere I wanted to go in the North of the island.

"Fantastic experience!"
This was my first yoga retreat. Thank you Wendy for making my stay unforgettable. I learned a lot of new things, new yoga-types and poses. Even though I wasn’t experienced, Wendy helped me a lot. Not only with the yoga poses during the yoga class in the morning, but she is always so helpful when I needed her. Breakfast is amazing. Completely vegan. I loved the finca. I booked a cozy, private room and loved the outside shower and the tranquility the finca had. I loved the cats as well. Would definitely recommend!

"Rural, rustic and wonderful "
The house, the communal breakfast were lovely and the yoga session was a great way to start each day. Wendy's instruction was really helpful. I learned new moves as well as improving ones I'd tried before.
I was happy with the location. I hired a car and Wendy recommended beautiful beaches for me to visit each day. The island is stunning.

The yoga classes with Wendy were awsome, the breakfast was really great, the lodge was nice in a good place to explore the island (though a rental car is needed). We felt very welcomed, Wendy was really nice - we can recommend this place!

"The perfect place to recharge fully"
The yoga classes with the amazing breakfast afterwards was just a treat! I totally recharged fully. Wendy is an amazing teacher with lots of experience and an amazing calm spirit. It’s the perfect way to get fully recharged and get to know the spirit of Ibiza! I’ ve loved everything of it. For me it was the perfect holiday. Many thanks again to you Wendy. Wish you just the best and hope to see you again. Hugs to you and all the beautiful kitties! Best Alice

"An awful place to do Yoga!"
My week with Wendy and Neil was very pleasant. Wendy brought me back to yoga through her wonderful classes. Thanks also to Neil for the excellent breakfast.
I already miss this gentle interaction from them and would like to return next year.
If you want to experience stillness, recharging yoga and the Ibiza countryside, I highly recommend The Lotus Pad!

"Peaceful and Restorative Yoga experience"
I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Wendy at the Lotus Pad. I found the yoga was exactly what I needed. Wendy incorporated the right balance of levels whilst guiding us through her classes. Breakfast was absolutely delicious, with plenty of flavourful options. My time there was so calming and I left feeling restored and at peace. Wendy and Neil were happy to help with anything I needed and were very generous. I will definitely be back!

"A wonderfull place to reset and feel like home."
I felt welcome and at home immediately. Wendy knows how to be kind, challenging and respectfully to your limits as a teacher. This is stimulating and inspiring. The caravan is amazing, I loved staying here. The rural surroundings helped me concentrate on getting grounded again and meditating a lot. This was just what I needed.
Loved meeting so many amazing people on the Sunday classes and the massages from Jeannette!

"Great experience"
- The Yoga teaching was great and punctual. Granted, not many others were there at the time. But as a beginner, Wendy gave me some fantastic tips
- The location is peaceful
- The vegetarian breakfast was tasty and social, and a great opportunity to find out what things you can do around the island

"Great place to relax in a beautiful green heaven"
I really enjoyed Wendys Yoga classes, she is a great teacher, has a deep knowledge of yoga and made sure beginners and more regular practionners felt at ease and challenged in the mean time.
The Finca itself is beautiful and has it´s own charm with beautiful lemon trees and rural area around, it is a great place to slow down and relax.
I would suggest to get a car to explore the beautiful nearby beaches and villages around, for me the location was perfect to discover the island.
And not to perfect the really delicous breakfast every day!!

"Great yoga retreat at perfect location"
The classes were simply great combining both intense exercise and relaxation/meditation. Wendy is a great and well experienced teacher, she took good care of my limitations by giving different alternatives to the exercises and personalised attention.
Breakfasts were fabulous as well with everything that I could think of: home-made vegan butter, fruit salad, toasts, farm-raised eggs, different drink options, ...
I would recommend it to anyone that wants to practice yoga, relax and know the island since the location is really convinient as well (10 min to calas and different interior towns, it is in the middle of the island so everything is not so far).

"You won´t regret this yoga retreat"
This was my firsts yoga retreat ever. Wendy is a great yoga teacher, who will certainly challenge, and get the best out of your yoga practice. I particularly appreciated all her corrections as they were all spot on. It did make a difference for me.
Food was tasty, colourful and delicious
Sound bath was magical
Starting yoga sessions with mantras felt so special.
Thanks for organizing such an special retreat Wendy!

"Super Yogasessions"
Die morgendlichen Yoga Sessions im Lotus Pad hatten für mich die perfekte Mischung aus physischer Forderung und Entspannung.
Wendy leitet die Sessions sehr angenehm, am Ende jeder Session gab es zudem eine Entspannungseinheit. Nach dem Yoga fühlte ich mich immer sehr wohl und entspannt. Auch das liebevoll zubereitete Frühstück was nach dem Yoga serviert wurde fand ich klasse und lieferte für mich den perfekten Start in den Tag.

"Amazing week of yoga and relaxation"
Well, where do I start?!
Wendy, the yoga teacher and host: she is a wonderful person, full of energy and very inspirational! Not only in yoga but also in spirituality. Also, she easily makes you feel welcome in the way you are!
Neil, the chef:
he is an amazing cook, especially the breakfasts he prepared were the best I had in a long time!
The accommodation:
A little off from the main road, so there are only little to none surrounding noises. Rooms are spacious and beds are quite hard but very comfy still. Best thing is the fireplace where we spent most of the evenings.
Also, make sure you have or share a car to explore the island and different beaches.
The group:
I felt very lucky to have met a group like this! So lovely people they are! Looking forward to keep in touch with them.
The yoga:
Wendy is not only a yoga teacher with lots of experience, but also she is able to adapt to the level of everybody individually. I made big progress over the week. Thank you!
Overall I am so very happy to have been there. And I only can recommend this retreat to anybody interested in yoga, relaxation, healthy food and a way of good and easy living!
Thanks again for everything!
Best

Wendy's teaching was great, there were people with very different experience levels, and all were able to make progress. The morning sessions were especially good and challenging- followed by a great breakfast. The daily schedule leaves a lot of freedom to do what you like. The company of Wendy and the other guests made it a very positive experience.

El Lotus Pad esta en el interior de Ibiza en un lugar idilico de relajacion y naturaleza aunque tambien cerca de algunas de las playas mas bonitas de la isla. Nos encantaron las clases de yoga (hora y media al dia) al inicio o al final del dia y la profesora Wendy que nos hizo sentir muy como en casa y a mejorar nuestra practica del yoga. El desayuno muy rico y saludable hecho siempre con ingredientes naturales por su pareja Neil. Muy recomendable pasar unos cuantos dias. Se nos hizo muy corta la estancia. Volveremos! 😀

Very lovely and absolutely gorgious Finca, located in the countryside of Ibiza. Quiet and very completative place, with everything you need for a recreative holiday. The breakfast is so delicous. Wendy is such a great and experienced yoga teacher with a lot of patience and compassion also for yoga beginners, like me. The lovely, frisky cats sneaking around are so cute and adorable. The massage was so unique and relaxing.

"A perfect place to relax without missing your daily practice"
I had the best experience at The Lotus Pad. With a very clean and comfortable accommodation, house and gardens beautifully decorated, the location itself allows you an excellent getaway from the craziness of the party scene and at the same time, the opportunity to explore the little-hidden 'calas' around the island (I recommend to hire a scooter or a car).
I can't say enough how good the food was, a delicious hearty breakfast every morning with a variety of fresh local fruits and ingredients.
Wendy is just wonderful, not only a great and experienced yoga teacher but a very warm and helpful person, she'll make sure that your stay goes easy and smooth along with a yoga practice adjusted to your needs.
And if you're lucky enough, you'll meet the lovely Lisa, who, when is not busy with mosquito bites xD, has the most interesting stories to tell about her travels around the world!
I'm happy I got to meet such beautiful kind souls overall.

"I had a good time and was Sorry to leave"
I like the location, the Breakfast and Wendy. Ibiza is not cheap - so the price is ok considering that. I personally would enjoy if all participants for the 5 day would start at the same day and end together - to be able to bond better. Also having the Yoga in the morning always would free the day. But no doubt: I would do it again. Hug to you Wendy and my fellow participants.

"A true place to fine peace and stillness!"
This retreat at The Lotus Pad was exactly what I was searching for and deeply needed. In its simplicity, it has provided peace, calmness, amazing yoga classes, friendships with truely lovely guests staying there at the moment, delicious breakfasts every morning to start the day and an overall zen feel and vibe. A true place to find peace and stillness. I will most definitely be back. A huge thanks to Wendy and Neil!

"Find a quiet space to relax"
It was a great mixture of yoga and time to independently explore Ibiza. The breakfasts were excellent. I was travelling alone but sharing yoga and breakfast meant I easily and immediately felt part of a community with the other guests.
The room was comfortable, the gardens and surroundings set in the middle of farm land were peaceful.
I hired a car and it was easy to find beautiful beaches, walks, local markets and great restaurants within a 20 /30 minute drive.

I really enjoyed my time at the Lotus Pad and recommend this trip for restarting a regular yoga practice. Wendy is extremely knowledgeable and assists you if you are struggling, like I was! The accommodation is rustic and charming, I stayed in the caravan and it is a cosy cocoon with a great bed. Overall what I liked the most was meeting my fellow travellers, the atmosphere Wendy has created really facilitates friendship, we all enjoyed the yoga, got along well and helped each other out. I would recommend having a car to get around.

"An affordable, comfortable yoga retreat with fantastic food"
The yoga was brilliant each morning. Very challenging and educational. We learnt which part of the body each pose was working and how to perform it correctly. Wendy always offered more challenging alternatives for those of us who wanted to push ourselves in the class. I also really liked that she came around and corrected you - this is something that is particularly rare nowadays and really important to make sure poses are performed correctly. The food at the Retreat was absolutely amazing. Full of flavour and fresh local produce. I was also very fortunate to be on the equinox retreat with some amazing ladies who really made my stay!
The Retreat itself is very homely and is set in beautiful gardens in a great area to explore in Ibiza. I would really recommend renting a car if you stay here as there are lots of nearby villages and small towns to visit and beautiful beaches to explore.

"Repetiremos, seguro!"
Lotus Pad es un lugar maravilloso: la casa es bonita y sencilla, y el porche está cubierto por un toldo para poder practicar yoga al aire libre sin el sol directo.
Los desayunos son buenísimos, muy completos, y siempre incluyen algo elaborado al momento. Nos ha encantado pasar ese tiempo comiendo y conversando con Wendy, Hanna y los otros huéspedes, porque cada día descubríamos que teníamos algo nuevo en común, más allá del yoga.
Me parece muy positivo que no se trate de un retiro como tal. En realidad es como una casa rural con yoga y desayuno incluido... después, cada uno se va a explorar la isla por su cuenta, y creo que son unas vacaciones muy equilibradas.

"A relaxing getaway much deserved "
Wendy was an amazing instructor, she did more for me and my need to re-center myself than I think she intended to! The classes were informative and helped me get into my practice more, as a beginner living in a foreign country I haven't been to classes in a long time. The location was ideal to escape the party scene and enjoy some true relaxation, while also being within walking distance to a bus stop to nearby beaches. The breakfasts were beyond exceptional! Neil is an amazing chef, there was fresh cut fruit everyday, as well as, a heartier dish of eggs or cooked spinach, mushrooms, and avocado. Wendy was very helpful beyond the yoga classes too, providing information on places to see and things to do. I was sad to go in the end.
