Moka Surfhouse & Yoga Retreat

I really enjoyed my stay at Moka . I left the retreat fully recharged with good energy , relaxed… the place is amazing . The vegetarian food is above expectations : delicious, generous, made with love by the italian chef . Of course , italians people know what is good . The place is very clean !! I highly recommend .

My entire stay was so lovely, such a great spot, nice atmosphere and super friendly staff.

Rooms were clean, beds comfy, food super tasty.

The yoga classes were amazing. I also added some surfing and had so much fun.

Would definitely recommend this place and I’m sure I’ll return.

J’ai adoré ce séjour. Tout était fait parfait pour vivre quelques jours hors du temps et reposant. J’y retournerai pour sûr.

Les cours de Yoga , les repas et les moments détentes dans les lieux communs

Yoga classes were really good.

One week to really unwind and reset my system. I enjoyed the soft and mindful Yoga classes and the calmness of the place. Friendly stuff that cares well for everybody.

There were quite a few highlights for me from the experience which I would like to share:

The staff on the Moka house was incredibly attentive and king to me;

The food was extremely good and home made.

The house itself and the spaces are very well taken care off and are really lovely for guests.

The jurt tent was great and the yoga lessons very high quality, motivating and engaging.

The surf lessons were awesome and the coaches were always present, attentive to us and very supportive.

Overall, to me all of the core elements of my experience were 5 *

Les cours de yoga étaient incroyables et le staff était toujours très disponible et souriant.

The people were really lovely. The accommodation was clean, comfortable and relaxing. The yoga yurt was peaceful and calming. The classes were well thought through. Brilliant massage and we loved the surf instructor. Breakfast was delicious and it was relaxing having the package planned and carefully organised for us. Great vibes and would highly recommend!

This retreat was the first one i did and it really fits me in such a perfect way. The quality of the yoga teaching was very high and i loved all of the teachers i got.

This place is like a nest, you immediately feel like home. We got delicious meal prepared by the chef Davide and i give a big thanks to the team of volunteers - Diego, Laura, Olga, Perry - so relax and so involved at the same time.

The people - guests, workers, nice people flourished in a great environment

Catching that first wave felt magical, and the yoga sessions were truly world-class.

It had such a good community vibe! Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. From the yoga sessions to the food - everything was spectacular! My friend and I were just a bit anxious about staying the the 6-bed mixed dorm. But when we arrived, everything was super clean. There are also curtains and a night lamp for extra privacy. I'd highly recommend this yoga retreat.

Die Betreiber und Mitarbeiter von Moka sind alle sehr herzlich. Tainá hat mir sogar vor der Anreise den Kontakt zu anderen Gästen vermittelt, sodass wir uns für den Transfer zusammentun konnten. Auch sonst war alles bestens organisiert. Die Yoga-Stunden haben mir sehr gut gefallen und die Massagen waren ebenso toll. Ich hatte alles in allem eine sehr entspannende Zeit.

Die Lehrerinnen haben alles gut erklärt. Bis dahin hatte ich nicht viel über Yoga, die unterschiedlichen Stile und vor allem die Atemtechniken gewusst. Das hat sich seit dem Retreat geändert und dazu geführt, dass ich mehr Lust auf Yoga bekommen habe.

the place was very calm and clean

Difficult to say, everything was amazing. If a sigle thing I would say the people were welcoming, friendly, accomodating and hats off to the chefs as the food was fantastic.

I also need to mention the massages and yoga lessons. They gave thier best and you are wanting for more.

La qualité des cours de yoga, le joli jardin, le massage, les repas délicieux, les rencontres et la bienveillance !

The combination. The people, food, yoga, surfing was amaizing. Words can’t describe this place, i had an awesome time there. It was definitely not the last time.

The people I met, the food, the yoga classes and the massage!

The people, not only the instructors and staff but also the attendees create a very nice culture and vibe

Had such a great time here. Very clean

Room cleanliness, great vegetarian food (and plenty of it), relaxing yoga, close to town, close to beach, friendly and helpful staff.

De mensen! Velen die je hier tegenkomt zijn ook solo weg en het barste er van de positiviteit, ook de vrijwilligers werkten enorm mee aan deze algehele sfeer. De faciliteiten dekken alles wat je nodig hebt en de stemming was vooral super chill. Het avondeten was enorm lekker! Het ontbijt buffet is niet enorm, maar had wat ik nodig heb dus ik heb niks te klagen. De yoga yurt is ontzettend kalm en ruim, ik heb niet veel yoga meegemaakt dus kan hier niet echt goed over schrijven. Er is in de omgeving altijd wel wat te doen, het stadje is ontzettend charmant en toch rustig. Alles in het huis is schoon en ruikt lekker, ik ga nog heel lang over deze ervaring dromen en kan niet wachten om een keertje terug te komen. Echt een aanrader!

Deuxième séjour pour moi ! J’adore le Mokasurf house, « à mon goût » tout est parfait ! Le lieu, les cours, l’ambiance… et la région d’Ericeira est juste magique !

The whole experience was wonderful. The location was absolutely beautiful and so tranquil. Every yoga session in the yurt was well delivered by expert instructors who tailored and adapted the sessions appropriately.

The connection with the people

The international vibe, easy going and great to unwind and relax

L’accueil des gens, le respect du rythme de chacun, la qualité et la diversité des pratiques de yoga, la nourriture nourrissante pour l’âme et le corps.

Moka Surfhouse is perfect in every way! The staff are so friendly and helpful, the homemade food is delicious and they cater to every dietary requirement, the rooms are clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated, and the yoga yurt is my favourite - what a space! I was a little concerned about sharing a bathroom with so many people but they are thoroughly cleaned twice a day and never became dirty. Relaxing in the garden on the hammocks, in the jacuzzi, down by the beach, there are so many options and all are just perfect. I wish I’d stayed longer!

The staff was great, great food and beautiful people. Surf and yoga lessons where amazing. The location and facilities are great for the prices, and I'm definitely coming back.

I am so glad that I found this retreat place. I would genuinely book again and recommend to anybody thinking about it. All staff and volunteers were very friendly and smiley, and all cared about delivering a great service and easy going atmosphere.

It takes no time to settle in and I met so many lovely people.

I liked the fact that it was a little tucked away, and convenient with the free shuttles.

The food was SO delicious, and felt healthy and balanced, made by a very talented and very jolly chef. They seemed to be really accomodating with food intolerences etc.

I was in a shared room, all were quiet and respectful.

Definitely try the food truck around the corner!! Insane fresh filled bread and pastries for 2 euroes!

I flew into Faro and got the train and bus to Ericeira, cheap travel and worth the journey from the south.

Thanks, Moka, hope to be back in the future.

Thanks, Moka!

The fantastic staff who made everyone feel welcome. Neil was amazing and cooked up a storm with the morning cakes.

The surf lessons were also fantastic with awesome instructor who really went the extra mile!

Yoga was amazing. Food was amazing. And all the staff were so welcoming and friendly. Such a chilled environment. Had a great stay!

Very chill place with amazing people and activities, there is shop nearby and also bus station so you have everything in one place. I would recommend this retreat to anyone who is trying to have an active and mindfull vacation.

The food and yoga classes were great! Loved it.

Nous avons été enchanté par notre séjour. Accueil chaleureux , des professeurs de yoga et de surf professionnels et une belle ambiance .

The food was incredible! The garden was perfect for relaxing in the hammocks and there was a great selection of yoga classes everyday taken by very experienced, friendly and inspiring teachers. The icing on the cake was the one-hour massage included in the package. A wonderful break away and I was very comfortable being there as a solo traveller. Would definitely go back.

Very comfortable facilities, with tasty food and friendly staff. The massages were excellent! The schedule is well organized and I had a super positive experience overall with the classes. Communication with the retreat was also very easy and everyone was incredibly helpful to support with questions / additional information. They also provided labeled food to cater to vegan diet which is my preference.

Really nice , chill and positive vibe. Lovely liked minded clientele and happy enthusiastic employees. The food was delish and fresh with creative recipes. Yoga was fantastically led with properly qualified instructors who understood individuals needs and concerns. Our private room was huge and beautifully decorated. Retreat location 6 min cycle from beach and free lifts to town every day. The massage therapist was amazing , her technique was perfect after walking the many hills of Portugal.

The vegetarian dinners were absolutely amazing—so flavourful and really tasty. I am not vegetarian but it was really delicious and did not need meat at all. The yoga sessions offered a nice variety of styles and teachers; some lessons resonated with me more than others, but each instructor brought their own unique energy, which I appreciated.The garden was a beautiful, peaceful place to unwind—especially after a surfing lesson—and the jacuzzi was a perfect touch. Staff was also really nice, ready to help, friendly. I also had a massage included in my stay, and it was incredible.

The yoga was amazing and most of the instructors were amazing too! I really appreciated their attention to detail on form and ensuring that the poses are being done correctly and safely. Carla was our favourite! And both Carla and Joane were very attentive to my sister who was 6 months pregnant ensuring she had alternative poses and modifications. The massages were incredible! Lucia and her colleague have magic hands!

I liked the food very much and the massage and also the yoga sessions were good.

I just spent four unforgettable nights at MOKA in Ericeira and I truly couldn’t have asked for more. Everything was absolutely magnificent from start to finish.

The team is outstanding – incredibly kind, warm, and welcoming. The vibe at the hostel is just perfect: laid-back, inspiring, and full of positive energy. It’s the kind of place where you instantly feel at home.

The yoga classes were top-notch, led by amazing teachers who brought so much presence and care into each session. I also took surf lessons, and the instructors were fantastic – skilled, supportive, and really passionate about what they do. There was even a photographer who captured some beautiful moments during the surf sessions!

The food deserves a special mention – absolutely divine! The chef is a true artist, preparing meals that were not only delicious but nourishing and full of flavor.

Last but not least, the entire place was spotless – everything super clean and well organized. You can feel the love and dedication in every corner.

MOKA is more than just a place to stay – it’s an experience. If you’re coming to Ericeira, don’t think twice. Five stars, hands down.

I’m so glad to spend a whole week at Moka! It was a perfect week with amazing people, felt really welcomed, just like family, and perfect activities!

I booked the Yoga and surf package, sometimes quite busy to attend to all the activities but just perfect for me! If you just book the Yoga classes you have the whole day to do whatever you want. The surf schedule depends on weather conditions, sometimes the classes are in the morning, sometimes in the noon/afternoon.

Especially the volunteers make this beautiful place even more special! The breakfast was very good and the dinner was amazing and always different and always freshly cooked!

The dorm rooms are simple but good and clean and the beds have curtains:) The house is located in quite area (not directly in Ericeira), perfect to relax and enjoy the view in the sweet yard, the whirlpool, or under the beautiful tree! But a daily shuttle can drop you off in the city and picks you up;)

Thanks for this lovely time! I really enjoyed everything from Yoga, lovely surf teachers, the other guest, the chilled atmosphere, the food and especially the volunteers - Greetings especially to Janne, Mitch and Augustina <3

Highly recommend!!!

The staff were friendly, responsive and provided prompt responses. The yoga instructors were super knowledgable and the sessions were top notch , especially as it was held in the yurt. We had a storm come through and still had an invigorating yoga session with Carla. Thanks Moka for our most memorable retreat.

Moka is a magic place in a stunning area, well organized, fantastic food, brilliant teachers … we hope for a comeback one day 😘

I liked the spot and the calmness of it. I liked the fact that you could check the surroundings during the day and they arrange for a shuttle to take you to the city of Ericeira.

I loved yoga practice because it was soothing and very good for my mental health. I loved the food which was amazing ! The volunteers were really nice ! I loved everything really

I loved Everything!!!! My room was beautiful clean and comfortable. The food was amazing and the yoga and massages were excellent!!! Thank you to all the staff especially Juliet, Kim and Lu. I forgot the chefs name but thanks to him too for his amazing food especially the soups!

The Moka surf house and yoga retreat was my first (and definitely not my last) travel experience of that kind. It was my first time surfing and my doing yoga, both were so marking and beautiful.

Surfing was magical and I managed to break the fear of the waves from the first day, I would highly recommend trying it if you’re considering staying at Moka. Tarek was my instructor and he was very nice and receptive, plus standing up on the board for the first time is one of the best feelings ever.

The yoga classes were not intense at all but were magical. I really felt like part of myself healed from within and I will start doing yoga on the regular. The yoga instructors were very professional and helpful.

The massage was one of the best I’ve ever had. I have a stiff back and my shoulders were very tense, the next day I felt like I got another back. It was a bit painful but the aftermath was a 10/10.

The volunteers, the chef, the staff, and the rest of the residents were all genuine, fun, and understanding. It really felt like home for a short while. It was super interesting to meet and eat and share ideas with people from all over the world.

The food was absolutely delicious, be it for the breakfast or dinner. And the Chef used to play a techno playlist every night which was sick!! (On low volume but the songs were

So nice).

The overall stay was magical, there’s a nice garden with a small orange tree, a jacuzzi with a view, and hammocks to relax.

Highly recommended!!

I was at Moka at the end of October/beginning of November. It was a lovely stay. The yoga classes are great and offer different perspectives for your practice. The classes are at a beginner level but still challenging. Doing both surfing and yoga on the same day can be tiring after a while. All the teachers are very kind and share a lot of knowledge with you.

The food is amazing. For breakfast, there's a consistently great buffet every day (except for the cakes, which may vary). The dinners, however, are unique and always fantastic. You're delighted by how good everything tastes.

The surfing lessons were really good. They start at different times each day, and everything you need is provided.

The facility is perfect for relaxing and unwinding. There are plenty of places to sit or lie down and chill. It's also located in a quiet area, but just a short walk to the nearest beach or a short drive to Ericeira.

I had a great time and will definitely come back!

Everything was perfect !

The place is beautiful , the staff is always ready to help, the food is delicious, the surf is amazing, the yoga classes are very good. I haven't tried any surf or yoga classes before so I was a real beginner and all the teachers were great ! I quickly felt confident and relaxed there. And other travellers I met were also very nice. So, I really recommand Moka Surfhouse & Yogaretreat :)

Ik heb het erg naar mijn zin gehad en genoten van hoge kwaliteit yoga. Kleine tip, ik denk dat een diffuser voor de hele ervaring van ook het element geur het extra fijn zou maken. En een kleine thee na de yoga practice maakt het ook nog net even wat specialer en fijn afsluiter. Al met al great experince

I loved this place. Was EXCACTLY what i needed. Flere off to learn how to breathe. And i did that. I am definatley coming back :)

The volunteer staff were great

I went with a friend as a taster experience as I had never been on a retreat before. It was very enjoyable. Moka is well run, the staff are excellent and friendly. Our room and all the communal spaces were clean and relaxing.

The yoga classes were fantastic. I liked that they were different styles and teachers every day. The teachers were all totally professional and engaged with the practice.

I liked the fact that some of the people were there for surfing as well as yoga. It gave a different vibe. Everyone we met were coming for different reasons and from many countries. I really liked that we could book for three nights and many people there seemed to have booked a week or more.

I highly recommend Moka Surfhouse and would go back again. Thank you to all who made our experience wonderful.

Alles!

Tolle Tagesstruktur mit viel Freiheit

Super leckeres und gesundes Essen

Top Yoga Lehrerinnen

Es hat gar nicht lange gedauert und man fühlt sich zu Hause in Moka. Die Unterkunft, das Essen, die Leute, die Aktivitäten - alles ist zum wohlfühlen! Es waren sehr viele alleine dort, was es ganz einfach gemacht hat, Kontakte zu wunderbaren Menschen knüpfen. Ich empfehle einen Urlaub in Moka sehr!

The yoga is held in a beautiful yurt by some excellent teachers. I struggle with anxiety and usually get distracted and in my head - but when guided by Carla and Barbara I was fully present and at ease. The inside of the yurt is bathed in sunlight every morning and evening and so peaceful. The food was an experience in its own right. The chef served some of the most creative and tasty vegan dishes I ever had. The shared rooms are quite basic, but there is plenty of storage and the house has plenty of decent bathrooms, good showers etc. The garden is lovely for sunbathing with its hammocks and loungers and a hot tub/jacuzzi to chill in.

The place looks even better than in pictures

People have been amazing and went above and beyond

Surf with Lula: best classes I have been to and I took several in different places

The yurt - beautiful

Bunk beds: so good to have the curtains

All very clean

Jacuzzi

Food was really tasty

Free water all day long

There was a nice mix of people who were doing yoga or surf or both. Everyone was friendly.

I honestly never write reviews but I have had the absolute best week at Moka. Almost immediately I felt super comfortable and connected so deeply with the other guests.

It truly is a family - you see the same people day in day out and there is a genuine care and connection between everyone. One of my best experiences solo travelling I can’t recommend enough.

Ambiance top avec des gens sympa et un cadre estival et vraiment relax avec le jacuzzi et les hamac. Bien situé dans un village calme avec plage accessible à pied + navette disponible une fois par jour pour Foz et Ericeira. La plupart des cours de yoga étaient top avec des profs bienveillants et compétents 👌

Amazing nidra seesions

The retreat was a lovely little villa in rural Portugal, with a gorgeous yurt for practice and delicious dinners each evening. They offered daily shuttles to nearby beach and the town of Ericera which was really helpful. The facilities were always clean and tidy. The yoga was lovely and it was great to have a mix of yoga teachers who were all very qualified and experienced. The included massage was one of the best I've ever had, and the staff were all lovely welcoming people.

The accommodation was lovely, I slept the best in ages. The evening meal was excellent and all food extremely tasty. The yoga sessions were varied and really well instructed.

Augusta and all of the staff and volunteers that work here were super kind and friendly throughout the whole experience. From the booking process (which I had some issues with finding a date) to my check out, they were patient and flexible. The space and location itself is beautiful; the rooms are nice and tidy, there is a beautiful garden and the space where the yoga sessions are done is tranquil and stunning. I liked the open schedule with 2 yoga sessions a day and set meal times but plenty of free time to work with; a good balance of flexibility with some routine. It’s well-situated, close to Ericeira, beaches, and a grocery store nearby. Food was great, healthy and varied. Everything was very well organised, they were very on top of providing us with the info we needed, arranging pick-ups etc. I also had one of the best massages I’ve ever had here, unexpected for a retreat like this as I’ve had terrible massages at even high-end spas, but the massage therapist was very knowledgeable and skilled. Had a great stay even though it was a short one. Would come back and would definitely recommend it!

The service was perfect - very attentive, thoughtful, well structured and friendly.

Before the retreat, communication was good and clear and they were very prompt to respond to any queries.

The atmosphere was lovely. All the guests were very pleasant and relaxed, in keeping with the overall vibe. I went there alone and felt that I had exactly the right amount of active time (yoga and surfing), solo time, and social time over breakfast and dinner.

The yoga sessions were great. There was a nice mix of types of yoga and all the teachers were excellent.

In my 3-night package, there was a full body massage included which was wonderful.

I also signed up at the last minute for a couple of beginners’ surf lessons which were held with the Ericeira Surf School. They pick you up from Moka and drive you 15 mins or so to the beach with a stop-off to get your wetsuit sorted out. The instructors were really good - positive, supportive and patient.

The food served at breakfast and dinner was very good. The chef was innovative, creative and produced a nice wide variety of dishes.

Thank you for a wonderful break - The food was outstanding and generous, the classes were relaxing and the staff super friendly and kind.

I had an amazing stay! Thank you so much

Tout est de haute qualité, l'accueill, les infrastructures, les professeurs, la propreté, la nourriture. Je recommande vivement.

Das Essen war großartig, die Leute super nett und auch das Yoga sehr toll!

Diversité des professeurs de yoga.

Plages à proximité (30/40 mn de marche)

Installations simples et propres.

Navette pour la ville et plage.

Yourte pour le yoga

Bon repas végétariens

De kwaliteit van de yoga lessen. Massage was heerlijk!

die yoga einheiten waren extrem gut geführt ; das haus war süß; alles insgesamt sehr schön 😊

I loved the package deal and the location. I met some amazing people. The yoga and surfing was my highlight. The surf team were super nice and fun, and the yoga especially Melania were very professional and took care to explain everything. the location and staff were the other highlights. The guys working there were awesome. I did get eaten alive by mosquitoes so I feel like they could have put a net in the room, especially after I complained to the reception team. I regret not having a spray and sadly the local shop didn’t carry anything. The dorms were mixed a little noisy but overall okay - I had thought I had booked a 4 bed dorm but it was a 6 bed and there were able to be flexible on moving. I was okay to stay on there but I slept badly. The sheets weren’t very clean as I noticed some stains. Overall it was a great trip but just would do a private dorm next time! Really enjoyed the food too. Excellent vegetarian food. The staff, the yoga, the guests, the food and the local area were the highlights.

The vibes and the food were amazing, very clean accommodation , amazing hut.

I really loved all the Yoga instructors! Though, my favourite was Carla. The way she led the class was the most suitable for me.

Surf experience was also great. With only two sessions I was able to stand up and stay this way for some time))

But my most FAVOURITE was dinner! The masterpieces that were created by the chef war simply brilliant!

I loved everythink there! Had such a good time with the people and the food wos excellent 🤎

Bei Moka herrscht eine tolle Stimmung. Service ist on top. Aktivitäten sind sehr gut organisiert. Unterkunft ist auch sehr gut.

I really enjoyed my stay at moka. Great location for relaxing but can easily get into town and beaches. The accommodation was very comfortable and clean. The outside areas great for relaxing. All the yoga classes were amazing the teachers very good and friendly. Especially Paula. Would definitely recommend for yoga retreat. Met some lovely people that were staying there too.

I really enjoyed the place. I found it to be a very special and quiet place. It has been great to be able to practice yoga here, the experience with the people and all the staff has been excellent too.

For the most part, the property was very serene and relaxing.

Moka Surfhouse is an absolute gem - it's very well-run, with staff on hand who care about the guests and are obviously invested in them having a great experience. The activities were great and run by competent and friendly instructors (both surf and yoga). The food was amazing - it's hard to eat healthy food on holiday but breakfasts and dinners were so tasty and made extremely well. Really nice bunch of guests as well - I met some lovely people. Very happy with my experience and highly recommend this retreat.

Er zijn meerdere yoga instructeurs, allen uitstekend, daardoor zijn de lessen heel gevarieerd en ik vond ze allemaal geweldig.

Het eten is super lekker, 5 sterren!

Alles is prettig en schoon, en goed onderhouden.

Wir wurden herzlich empfangen und während des Aufenthalts wurden unsere Wünsche erfüllt. Alles ist sehr sauber. Das Essen köstlich und frisch zubereitet.

Ich fand alle Kursleiterinnen sehr kompetent

L'endroit est superbe, notamment la yourte de yoga ! Toute l'équipe est très sympathique et accueillante, les repas étaient délicieux. La variété et la qualité des cours de yoga est au top.

Amazing place, super friendly team and hosts, wonderful food and very high quality yoga and surf classes, perfect combination!

When it comes to finding a serene retreat, this is THE ultimate destination. The staff members are incredibly friendly and helpful, ensuring a warm and welcoming environment. The cleanliness of the place surpassed my expectations, allowing me to fully relax and unwind. The yoga classes offered were absolutely transformative, leaving me with a profound sense of well-being. The surfing lessons were top-notch and left me feeling exhilarated. I genuinely couldn't have asked for a more perfect week away ❤️

Everything is very well organized, the people there are super nice and helpful. The yoga classes were wonderful and the breakfast/dinner very good. The transport works perfectly and everything is very well maintained. I had a very relaxing time there and would recommend it to anyone.

The staff were very attentive and friendly. It was very well organised, the food was great and the massage was the best I have ever had!

Everyone was lovely and welcoming- liked the initial whatsapp contact as well as meeting the team in-person. Nothing was too much trouble. Schedules for yoga, breakfast, dinner, massages and activities posted on boards and plenty of time available to relax, sunbathe or just talk. Beds were clean and comfortable and showers/washing facilities were spotless. Sad to leave- can't wait to come back!

I loved the food, the atmosphere, the yoga room, the outdoor chill area with the hammocks.

Excellent atmosphere, super yoga classes, delicious vegan meals

It was such a wonderful staying in Moka. The team was so kind and helpful. The food was fantastic. And the organisation was very good. Everything was nearly perfect. The Surf school they have choosen was also really nice. I liked the teachers and they give helpful advices, also bloody beginner could have fun and some experiences of success.

The Yoga was wonderful and always the right kind of (morning powerful/ evening restorative).

I’d love to come back next year and I can give a highly recommendation for this Yoga and Surf retreat! Love

Moka had really lovely, kind and enjoyable atmosphere and environment. I really enjoyed the quality and professionalism of the teachers (surf&yoga both). Had chance to use bikes, go to hiking, discover the city, to be in silent. Everything felt really thought out (from water serving to massage shechules), made me feel really safe cause I didn't have to worry about anything. Food was really good, volunteers were really helpful (and funny). Nothing to complain about anything and tottally enjoyed my time at Moka. Well deserved active vacation!

De yogalessen zijn heerlijk en van goede kwaliteit. Het eten is ook zeer goed en met liefde bereid. De sfeer is fijn en ontspannen. Ik hen een heerlijk verblijf gehad.

My friend and I had the best time staying at Moka. The room was so comfy and all the food was amazing (homemade cakes and yogurt etc. in the morning and delicious food in the evening). The staff were all so friendly and in general there was a lovely atmosphere. The yoga teachers were really knowledgeable and it was great to have a sea view from the yoga yurt! There is also a great coastal walk to a beach and you can walk all the way to Ericeira. Will definitely visit again and recommend!

If you are looking to relax and reenergise Moka is definitely the place! The staff is incredibly nice, the other residents are all in a very chilled and wholesome mindset, no wild partying or disrespectful behaviours. I was there for a week and did all the yoga classes, great variety and excellent teachers! I highly recommend Moka :)

Première expérience de voyage en solo et c'était incroyable ! Les locaux de la maison Moka sont très propres et accueillants. Les repas sont végans, variés et excellents ! (normal c'est un italien qui fait la cuisine) xD

La plage de Sao Julian a proximité est un excellent spot de surf et la petite ville d'Ericeira est magnifique également.

Moka propose des cours de surf pour débutants notamment avec des professeurs très attentifs et sympas. Les cours de yoga sont une première pour moi et j'ai adoré !

J'ai rajouté en plus des cours d'équitation avec Antonio et j'ai trop trop adoré ! Plusieurs balades de plusieurs heures à cheval dans la vallée. Antonio est à l'écoute, met à l'aise et donne beaucoup de conseils sur votre pratique à cheval.

Un grand merci, c'était une expérience hors du commun !

Marion

De l’accueil chaleureux avec les explications claires et détaillées, au repas très sains, les cours de yoga, le massage c’était vraiment super convivial. Merci 🙏🏼

I can only recommend this place. Really nice place where you can slow down, relax, enjoy the sun and the yoga sessions. Food was nice and more than enough, Yoga sessions were really good and the whole accomodation just a dream. Will go there again next time!

Habe super Yoga- und Surfferien hier verbracht und kann es jedem weiter empfehlen. Leckeres Essen gabs auch immer, wie es für einen italienischen Koch gehört;-) Gerne wieder!

Alles! Ich war absolut traurig diesen schönen Ort und die tollen Leute die ich treffen durfte, verlassen zu müssen!

Das liebevoll zubereitete Essen, viele extra services, die Routine, superliebe Mitarbeitende

there are different sports available during the stay, everyday was so busy with the different things you could choose to do

Die yourte, der Ort

Ich habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt. Entspannte Atmosphäre, sehr nettes Team und eine schöne Anlage. Die Yogastunden und das Surfen haben echt Spaß gemacht. Wäre gerne noch länger geblieben.

Das Ambiente, die Stimmung, die Volunteers, ... die Lage und das Camp an sich waren toll. Auch die Volunteers und Work Awayer waren super nett und hilfsbereit. Der Surfkurs hat viel mehr Spaß gemacht als gedacht. Die 3 Tage Anfängerkurs reichen dicke. Es war wunderschön- hat sich gleichzeitig wie 2 Tage und 1 Monat angefühlt. Toll!

The staff is very well organized and very welcoming and nice.

The place is very peaceful and the accommodations are super clean.

I loved everything, the yoga was very high quality, the surf lessons were well organised, the food was so delicious, the accommation was comfortable and homely and the staff were very friendly, helpful and welcoming.

I like atmosfare, work a way guys, visitors. Everything work so well. My best holliday ever!!

Cozy and serene hillside retreat overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Friendly people, amazing vegan-friendly Italian food, a variety of different yoga classes and instructors (ashtanga to yin) taught twice daily in a cozy yurt shala. Shuttle service to town (uber also works) and optional surf lessons (amazing teachers! Would absolutely recommend trying it out) I will definitely come back!

I loved the overall spirit, the people I met there, friendliness of staff, wonderful yoga and massage! The food was outstanding and of course the ocean!

Beautiful place with kind friendly people - very comfortable and relaxing atmosphere and great organisation of the surfing, yoga, massage and meals, all of which were excellent. Would highly recommend and definitely come back! Thanks Moka for a fantastic holiday :-D

Le lieu, la villa, la yourte pour les cours de yoga avec 2 excellentes profs !

Moka ist ein toller Platz um Surfen und Yoga miteinander zu verbinden. Es liegt zu Fuß eine Stunde außerhalb con Ericeira. Der Shuttle Service ist jedoch super und kann täglich hin und rück genutzt werden. Das Gelände ist mega idyllisch und mit dem frei zur Verfügung stehenden Rädern ist man in 10 Min am Strand und Strandcafé mit herrlichem Ausblick.

Alle Leute sind super nett und hilfsbereit und kleine Probleme lassen sich easy klären. Das publikum ist bunt gemischt und es fühlt sich irgendwie wie Familie an. Man kommt gut mit allen Gästen ins Gespräch und auch die Dinner sind sehr lustig.

Das Frühstück und Dinner ist super lecker und auf individuelle Ernährungsvorlieben wird Rücksicht genommen.

Auch das Yoga und meine zwei Massagen waren super.

Ich habe nichts auszusetzen und kann Moka nur weiterempfehlen.

Best breakfast ever!

I also had my best yoga class here, on my first day arrival (23th at 6pm.. I don't remember the teacher's name)

Wonderful hostel structure, mainly the yoga tent!

Der Yoga-Unterricht war sehr gut. Der idyllische und ruhige Garten mit den Hängematten läd zum Entspannen ein. Die zubereiteten Dinner waren sehr lecker und gesund.

So professional, so polite and in the same way relaxt

Really great holiday! Very laid back and social atmosphere with a perfect amount of surf and yoga sessions. Thank you Moka!

Was one of the best vacations I ever had! The guests as well as the staff are great. The yoga and surf instructors are very passionate and great. After only an hour in the water, all of us beginners were able to get up on the board even though the conditions were not the easiest.

Also it should be mentioned that the free dinner that was offered is prepared by the staff which is mainly Italian. Need I say more? ;) great food in great quantities, just right after a day in the ocean :)

Les organisateurs sont d'une gentillesse incroyable.

Sehr familiäre Atmosphäre, tolle Gastgeber, großartige Yoga Klassen (Christine,Andreas,Sara)

Richtige Wohlfühl Unterkunft. Ich komme sicher wieder 💕💕💕💕

Sehr nette Leute kennengelernt, es war unkompliziert, wir haben viel gelacht! Yoga mit Dorotea war sehr gut

It was very good to start mornings with excellent yoga lessons that changed tradition from day to day (yin, vinyasa, ashtanga etc). The surf instructors were professional and easy going. I liked the cozy feeling the Moka house hosts managed to create. Shared breakfasts and dinners with other guests made the stay unforgettable.

I went alone not knowing what to expect, but found lovely people and had the most fantastic experience. Everyone at Moka are so friendly and helpful.

The atmosphere left me feeling very relaxed and I didn't want to leave, I will be back!

- The place is really nice to chill out ! The chairs under the tree, the balcony for the sunset, the hamocks for a nap, the living room to watch movies.

- The yoga class was more intense that I thougt so it was good and enough. The teacher is good !

- The supermarket which is very close and not too small.

- The staff offers transfer by car to the beach and to Ericeira twice a day. And they give many informations about the area.

- There was a good atmosphere :)

Die Atmosphäre vor Ort ist entspannt und das Gelände ist wirklich sehr schön. Auch die Mischung aus Yoga und Surfen ist super. Die Anbieter achten sehr darauf, dass das Moka House sauber und gemütlich ist. Auch die Gäste sind fast alle super aufgeschlossen, offen und toll. Es ist leicht, neue Leute kennenzulernen. Auch die Mehrbettzimmer sind - obwohl klein - schön eingerichtet. Die Yogastunden sind vielleicht nicht super persönlich gehalten, aber sehr profesionell, fordernd und intensiv. Leute, die Yoga regelmäßig machen, kommen hier in jedem Fall auf ihre Kosten :) Die Surfschule, mit der das Moka House zusammenarbeitet, ist auch super. Der Shuttle zum Strand funktioniert einwandfrei, der Lehrer motiviert und unterstützt (besonders) Anfänger, sodass man schnell Erfolgserlebnisse hat! Von der sportlichen und menschlichen Seite kann ich das Moka House also sehr empfehlen.

Everything was great. The team is really nice and the place is wonderful! It feels like being at friends house and not in a hotel. The dinners are delicious and yoga classes are really well organised. Surf is worth trying as well. I will definitely come back.

The two couples who run Moka Surfhouse are friendly, helpful, efficient. There is an amazing vibe.

Supers cours de yoga avec Dorotea.

Très bonne ambiance

The yoga was great. The staff were very friendly.

Die Atmosphäre im Moka Surfhouse ist so freundlich und entspannt, dass man von Anfang an das Gefühl von "Urlaub" bekommt. Die Besitzer sind unglaublich nett, zugewandt und hilfsbereit. Das Essen ist super lecker, Yoga und Massage waren auch toll.

Warm n cozy atmosphere n great staff

Le staff est formidable et la nourriture délicieuse !! L'équipe est très serviable, donne de bons conseils.
