Isla Indah Retreat and Monkey Surfing

The kind people and amazing food. Loving energy filled the room during the meditations.

Isla Indah staff were friendly and supportive, and nothing was too much trouble. The meals were outstanding in taste, visually, as well as availability (the kitchen and full menu was available until 9:30 pm). The local massage lady, Totu?, was incredible. My room was spotless and I loved the artistic touches and the lighting... The location of the hotel was perfect - near the main thoroughfare as well as the beach but not noisy at night - couldn't hear any noise from my room (room 2). I could easily walk anywhere outside. The variety of yoga teachers over my stay provided excellent classes and I learnt a lot from each teacher. I would highly recommend Isla Indah to any yogi - beginner or experienced. Thank you for a truly wonderful experience.

The surfing was so much fun and I progressed very quickly! I have surfed before but this was the first time I used a mid length board. The accommodation was great and the staff were so lovely, full of life and happy which was amazing to be around.

Balance between exercise of mind and body

First time trying surfing, and I absolutely loved it!

Staying at this yoga and surf retreat was an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and cared for by the incredible staff. They were warm, supportive, and genuinely passionate about what they do. The surf and yoga lessons were absolutely amazing. Each session was thoughtfully planned and tailored to different skill levels, which made me feel confident and motivated, even as a beginner. I especially appreciated how the instructors created a relaxed and encouraging environment where I could grow, challenge myself, and have so much fun at the same time. The atmosphere of the retreat as a whole was peaceful and inspiring. It was a perfect balance of adventure and inner calm. It was the ideal space to disconnect, reflect, and reconnect with both nature and myself.

I loved the location and the food. I had two different instructors for yoga- both were amazing. The surfing was not for me but the instructors were professional and great. The snorkeling with the mantas was fantastic.

Lieu cosy avec une bonne ambiance générale et bien situé. Cours de surf pro et adapté à chacun

This yoga/surf holiday is very well organized, in an ideal location with excellent instructors. I can't remember the two woman I did yoga with, one Balinese, one Australian, but they were both excellent. They surf instructors were very helpful, great teachers and made me feel safe, even if it was my first time surfing. The snorkeling trip was a highlight, very excellent guides.The little organic/eco store and all the staff at Indah retreat are wonderful. Special thanks to Mila for making me feel taking care of.

I lived the surfing . Beautiful views from the surf . Awesome instructors 🌊

Loved the accommodation and the staff; the surf was nice and snorkeling as well

Great stop

I loved meeting other solo travellers and that everything was organised. I didn’t have to worry about transfers. The food was also excellent and everyone was so friendly

I loved the snorkelling tour

The surfing was also great! But it was not for beginners. I was fine but perhaps information needs to make it clear more for someone who has had lessons before

L’hébergement était plutôt bien. La nourriture vraiment bonne. Le personnel de l’hôtel très gentil. La salle de yoga est bien, et au centre de l’hôtel. Le rendez vous pour le surf est à 5min à pied de l’hôtel.

J’ai beaucoup aimé le lieu, les activités en général, le personnel.

Accommodations are excellent. Staff is wonderful. Food is excellent. Staff takes a good deal of pride in their work and it shows. The surfing and yoga instruction is excellent, they are group lessons and the instructors can’t control for pain in the ass customers. But the location, gentle wave. Pleasant and eager instruction is all excellent. I’m not into yoga and energy healing in general but very much enjoyed giving it a go with instructors who genuinely are. Do get the massage place scheduled at the beginning of your package. Ask for the tiny woman. She can bend steel. I would have returned to her had I discovered her earlier.

It’s my second time with Isla Indah and I enjoyed my stay very much again.

Very welcoming staff, smooth arrangements of all activities and warm hospitality made the trip memorable.

I especially enjoyed the surfing part, Monkey Surfing has best instructors ever!

Food was very nice too, breakfasts and community dinner was delicious and healthy, very much in concept of yoga retreat.

We loved everything about this surf/yoga/ snorkeling camp. It was very well organized. We were staying in Ubud before, and even though we paid a little extra for the further away pickup, they arranged it all for us. They also got us to the airport on our way out & this was included in the price. The communication was very good ahead of time and during our stay. The surf instructors were amazing. We surfed with Kal most of the time and he is a very good teacher. He helped us catch more waves than we ever have. He explained things very well and made us feel confident on the waves. The boat to get to the break & the surfboards we used were great. The snorkeling experience was better than expected & we saw manta rays & a large sea turtle. The yoga classes were also very good. There were a lot of different options. We actually only made it to 2 out of 3 of the yoga classes because the schedule was so packed and we wanted to explore the island a bit. The accommodations were also very nice. Clean, well decorated, and cozy. The onsite restaurant was also excellent. Great healthy food options. It was great to have breakfast & 1 dinner included in our package. The staff was very kind & welcoming. We highly recommend this experience to anyone who is interested. It was a very good value for everything we got. It was convenient & we also feel like we saved money by booking it as a package instead of everything separately. It definitely saved us a lot of time & headache.

The location is great, the apartment was wonderful (clean, big with air condition and a huge bathroom with warm water). The breakfast was delicious and there were plenty of options. The organisation of yoga classes, surf lessons and the snorkling trip was perfect.

Das Essen war der Hammer!

Sehr freundliches und zuvorkommendes Personal.

Yoga-Sessions sehr abwechslungsreich.

Surf Schule war super nett und haben sich gut um uns gekümmert. (Beginner)

J’ai beaucoup apprécié les cours de surf avec Monkey surf school

Le petit déjeuner compris était appréciable même si assez peu varié.

La réception et le restaurant sont très agréables.

Le lit est très confortable

Le mobilier est très jolie

J’ai apprécié le cours de yoga avec Nyree et le thé après le cours

Accomodation was beautiful, staff were so nice and the food at Pisang Pisang was healthy and delicious. The guys at Monkey Surf were also really great teachers and helped me progress to a hardtop board. Yoga classes and snorkelling were great too- got to see some Manta rays. As a solo female traveller, this was the perfect retreat.

De kamers, gezond en lekker eten, vriendelijk personeel, yoga en de gehele sfeer en entourage van dit hotel is super fijn

The snorkel trip & surf lessons were really fun. And all the staff were so lovely and accommodating

War rundum sehr zufrieden... Staff war herzlich und super nett!

Maria hat alles professionell gemanaged, alles ist reibungslos und on time abgelaufen.... So habe ich das in Indonesien noch nie erlebt. Nochmals Dank ans Team

The accommodation was clean and the service was amazing. They helped me very well with all my questions and activity requests.

Decidí pasar 7 días en Nusa Lembongan, donde mi objetivo era pasar una estancia de relajación, aprender a hacer meditación y surf. Me encontré con un equipo de profesionales maravillosos que me acogieron de una manera muy agradable y, a pesar de estar viajando sola, durante aquellos días me sentí como si no lo estuviera. El ambiente era muy familiar. El alojamiento era muy confortable, con las necesidades necesarias. La comida era deliciosa y muy completa, apenas tienes la necesidad de ir a comer fuera.

Tanto los profesionales en Monkey Surfing como las profesoras de yoga y meditación, son espectaculares. Había realizado diferentes clases de surf previamente, pero siendo honesta, en Monkey Surfing me dieron consejos imprescindibles para seguir avanzando, a la vez que era muy divertido pasar el rato con ellos en el agua.

También inicié mi camino hacía la meditación con el retiro Indah Retreat y fueron sensaciones muy bonitas, con personas expertas.

Así que en resumen, me llevo este viaje para siempre, en los más profundo de mi corazón y si alguien está pensando en reservar un retiro alrededor de Bali, sin duda alguna le recomiendo Indah Retreat.

Saludos a Fian, Maria, Planet, Khadir... y a todos y cada uno de ellos. Hasta pronto!

Service, friendly staff, great food, nice yoga teachers and classes, fun surf and snorkelling and lovely accomodation

The accommodation was lovelier than I expected. Clean, contemporary shabby chic. The staff were just wonderful. Friendly and always happy to help. It was great to have the yoga studio on site. Monkey Surf instructors were great. Big Smiles, caring and attentive and good instruction. The snorkelling is definitely worth doing. Lembongan is so chill. So different from Bali. Feels like a friendly relaxed Community. I will definitely be back

Thanks to the hosts who welcomed me very well and to the yoga teacher who was amazing.

It was a nice and relaxing stay.

I've had such a lovely experience at Isla Indah. All the staff were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. A special thank you to Zak and Fian. The room was super spacious, comfy and quiet. Having the yoga studio onsite was very convenient and discovering different types of yoga was very interesting. Carolin was very friendly and professional, always ensuring people were comfortable and able to do the poses at their own level. The onsite cafe serves delicious yummy healthy food - you must try their smoothie bowls! The surfing instructors were very friendly and patient, and the waves were the perfect size for a beginner like me. The icing on the cake was seeing the majestic manta rays. Thank you everyone at Isla Indah for making my stay so memorable!

I was welcomed very warmly and presented my personal program. My room was way better than I expected, beautiful and tastefully decorated, with even aroma sticks. Cleaned well and the bed sheets felt better and softer than in many hotels (staying a lot in hotels). The little shop had everything, a lot of lovely organic products.

Surf instructors were great, fun and the groups were small enough so that they could give you personal instructions.

Snorkelling trip was also awesome, fun and good instructions were provided and they made sure that everyone could see turtles and THE manta.

Yoga facility was nice, I joined to three different instructors yoga, they all were kind and warm but the level varied quite much from excellent to ”why did I even came here”.

Need to mention that the airconditioning worket excellently!

Zac was the most amazing host. Always happy and made our stay most enjoyable indeed.

Die Mitarbeiter/innen sind so nett, herzlich und offen. Ich fühlte mich nach kurzer Zeit sehr wohl. Das beste Essen und den besten Ingwer Tee!

Das Zimmer war mega schön und sehr sauber.

Yoga, Schnorcheln, Surfen und vorallem die Insel anschauen lohnt sich sehr.

Ich werde diese Insel nochmals besuchen müssen...

Cya und danke für alles!!!

We liked how kind, patient and organised the instructors were and they gave amazing feedback about our surfing. We went from not being able to surf to being intermediate in 3 surf lessons. They gave us reef shoes and sun protective gear that was really good as well. We really loved the experience. The staff at the accommodation made it feel like a home and were so kind. There was not a lot not to like.

lokatie, eten yoga lessen

The place is really cute, the room is amazing, even had snacks, insents, room service for smoothies and food, I loved how nicely decorated it was too. The yoga classes I did were great too and the tea after the class is such a nice touch. The snorkelling and surf lessons were fun, was easy to meet people and make friends. And omg the food is next level, so nice and tasty and so much choice for veggies/vegans.

Zur Begrüßung gab es erst einmal einen welcome drink und eine kurze Einleitung inkl. das Programm der kommenden Tage, welches auf jeden abgestimmt war. Alles war gut durchdacht und geplant. Besonders gefallen haben mir das Surfing. Das Team war super nett und sehr hilfsbereit. Auch das Schnorcheln und die Massage waren top. Insgesamt ein tolles retreat um neue Leute kennenzulernen und aktiv zu sein.

Max. 2 persons per surf teacher

Good introduction for surf beginners

Nice yoga lessons

Free drink water refill

Kind stuff

Late check-out without surcharge

Beaucoup de belle rencontres endroit calme et paisible , personnel au petit soins , tous les cours adaptés et super .

Le surf les enseignants sont très protecteurs et prennent vraiment soins de leurs élèves. Pareil pour le yoga

Jai adoré mon séjour, je vous le conseil vivement.

A refaire en tout cas :)

J'ai passé une semaine magnifique à Isla Indah. La retraite de yoga était le highlight de mon séjour à Bali. Les cours de yoga et de surf dispensés sont de grande qualité, il s'agit de cours en petit comité ce qui les rendent comme écrit plus haut très qualitatifs. Les professeurs sont pédagogues, attentifs et à l'écoute. La propriété est très agréable et le personnel bienveillant. On se sent si bien à Nusa Lembongan qu'il est difficile de repartir.

Der gesamte Aufenthalt inklusive der Aktivitäten war sehr gut geplant und konnte schon im Buchungsprozess sehr gut individuell angepasst werden. Ein besonderer Dank gilt hier Christopher (Chris) der sowohl während der Planung als auch während meines Aufenthaltes sehr bemüht war alle Gäste zu unterstützen und Wünsche zu ermöglichen. Alle Aktivitäten (Surfen, Yoga und Schnorcheln) waren gut organisiert und wurden von professionellen Guides durchgeführt. Auch das Essen in der Unterkunft hat sehr gut geschmeckt. Bei meinen Aufenthalt möchte ich besonders hervorzuheben, dass man schnell in Kontakt mit anderen Gästen aus verschiedenen Ländern kommt und Chris dies auch fördert (zum Beispiel durch ein gemeinsames Abendessen). Es eignet sich daher auch sehr für Leute die alleine reisen oder neue Kontakte knüpfen wollen. Insgesamt habe ich mich sehr wohl gefühlt.

J’ai passé une super retraite à Isla Indah.

Les hôtes et le personnel sont tous incroyablement gentils, souriants et serviables. Les prestations sont de qualité et le lieu est magnifique.

Tous les professeurs, aussi bien de yoga que de surf, sont très bienveillants et pédagogues.

Je recommande sans hésiter.

Merci encore. 🙏

La nourriture au restaurant est très bonne, il y a beaucoup de choix. Autant vegan que végétariens.

J'ai beaucoup aimé la prof de yoga, très sympa et prend le temps d'expliquer.

Les profs de surfs sont très sympa également.

De yoga en surf lessen waren een geslaagde combinatie. Het niveau van de yoga les was goed, geschikt voor zowel beginners en gevorderden. Fijne lessen.

Een toffe surf ervaring met de mannen van Monkey surfing. Ze waren geduldig en ook heel spontaan.

Vriendelijk personeel van pisang pisang, ik heb genoten van de sapjes, smooties en het ontbijt erg lekker!

Goede locaties!

We loved everything about our week at Isla Indah. Everyone was so friendly and kind, the food was amazing, the room was spotless and the activities were organised perfectly.

The staff was really attentive

i absolutely loved the retreat. place is very peaceful and full of friendly faces. this was my second time with monkey surfing and im sure ill come back again and again - instructors are very professional, always care about your safety and if you follow their instructions you will get better and better each day. they all have positive energy and are very cheerful. also yoga is very relaxing with professional teachers. if you go for freedive you will have an amazing experience with highly experienced trainer as well - also teaching you a lot about your own body and being there for you at all times.

i would highly recommend this retreat to everyone who is looking for active break from busy stressful life, and also relaxed evenings by the beautiful sunset on the beach.

Très chaleureux accueil et sens de la bienveillance. Un logement de grande qualité et de confort, tout neuf!!

Une restauration raffinée et "healthy"avez des délicieux smoothies!

Personnel à l'écoute et attentionné.

Excellente prestations des profs de surf ( Planet) et des cours de yoga !

Endroit zen et très amical pour passer un superbe séjour !😁🤙

The coach from Monkey surfing , they are very professional and friendly.

Le lieu est idéalement placé. Proche de la plage et à l’ecart de la rue principale. Tout peut aisément de faire à pied. La flexibilité pour décaler des activités est appréciable. La nourriture très bonne et l’equipe Très sympathique

The smoothies and juices were amazing. Liz and Brilliant at Rama garden were lovely and very helpful😊

Amy the yoga instructor was great.

Lovely Yin practice 🙏

I liked that it was close to the beach. The surf was well organized and pretty good for beginners. The woman who organizes everything and sits at the “reception” is extremely friendly and kind and speaks English pretty well. I also liked the huge choice of juices and smoothies!

Tout a été parfait ... le personnel est adorable, l’organisation super, le logement (locomotive hôtel) parfait, la nourriture est très bonne et les activités au top !

Très bons profs de surf, parlant français et anglais, super cours de yoga, excursion sympa ... et l’île est juste magnifique ! Beaucoup mieux que bali qui est bondé à cette période ... bref je reviendrai sans faute !

Mention spéciale pour les smoothies (surtout le ginger detox) et le café vietnamien (café sua da) !!

Un merveilleux accueil souriant et disponible. On garde un super souvenir de notre première expérience en surf, l’encadrement est professionnel et l’equipe est super. Il faut essayer tous les jus qui sont délicieux. Excellente adresse de massage. Cours de yoga accessible à tous. L’ile est magnifique et reposante. A refaire sans hésitation.

La comida, la profesora de yoga que era australiana y muy buena, no recuerdo el nombre

The pros of this place is that the accommodation is fairly comfortable and the food and juices are amazing. Liz, one of the managers, tried to help me as best as she could. Even her smiling face made me feel better during tough situations. The beach is your backyard and you have a handful of restaurants that have beautiful sunset views. The surfing is great, each day gets more and more advice but awesome for beginners with 3 people max for 1 instructor. My advice for the retreat is to have a message board in the restaurant about the boats if they may or may not be cancelled the next day to avoid confusion and chaos. Treat your guests as family or as a community especially if they're traveling solo. business structure and overall retreat needs massive improvements when it comes to their advertising and customer service.

I loved everything about this retreat. The staff are great! They all very accomodating and put 100% to make you feel welcomed and ensure that you have an amazing experience.

The food was great. Especially, the smoothies - they were a real treat.

I loved the additional activities such as the massage and snorkeling. Every day was full of adventures.

Learning to surf was a whole lot of fun with experienced surf coaches who make sure you will stand up! The surf location is a great spot to learn and conquer any fears. The coaches were very friendly and made sure you were having a good time.

The yoga classes were the right amount of challenging. It was great to be able to focus on areas that you want to learn or overcome. The instructor was great and ensured that all students received attention, as well as, including a little bit of fun. It was a great way to start off or end off your day.

The overall staff really made this experience an amazing one. Thank you!

Overall, I had a great time!

All activities were high quality

The food, the place, the location, the yoga classes and surf lessons, the staff is super friendly.

L'équipe du monkey surfing étaient au top! des locaux souriant, agréables.

L'équipe du Ram est très serviable et très accueillante, c'était un séjour superbe !

Le lieu du yoga était parfait, murs, sols et plafonds en bambou, c'était très ressourçant et très apaisant.

I really liked the food, there were very good options - fresh fruit and veggies. I also LOVED the smoothies and juices. Excellent. The staff was friendly and accommodating.

Dewa pour le surf est excellent. Les locaux sont tres sympas

The staff at Rama Garden were very friendly and helpful, particularly Kiki. The surf instructors were very good and informative. The yoga classes were very relaxing. Snorkelling with Manta Rays was an amazing experience. Rama Garden retreat has a great vibe and is very relaxed. The food and smoothies were amazing.

Food + juices at Rama Garden were very good, nice staff, helpful & friendly, all activities organised in advance and switchable if needed, big rooms, lovely garden

I had the most incredible experience! Everything was wonderful - the people, the food, the activities, the organization, the accommodation. I cannot say enough good things about my time here! I will be back.

Village ambiance

I had a really great time, everyone was so welcoming and it was a lovely place to stay. The surfing was so fun and the yoga was also great!

Sympathie

Efficacité

Volonté de les élèves reussissent

The food wad amazing and so fresh.

The people were also very friendly without being over the top

Les profs étaient excellents , l'ambiance familiale était géniale et la cuisine aussi ! On a pu rencontrer pas mal de gens et découvrir un côté de Bali moins touristique donc très sympa !

La cuisine était délicieuse, et on nous a aidé et assisté à chaque instant :)

Merci pour cette semaine 😚

Nusa Lembongan is an awesome chilled place, I loved it. Yoga was fab, surfing great fun, massages very good. Snorkeling awesome. ❤️❤️❤️

The rooms had all the comfort whislt keeping simplicity and eco nature. I loved the restaurant pisang pisang excellent food made me curious to wsmt to try everything. Healthy and tasteful. Also an extensive original intriguing fresh list of fresh juices and smoothies. I felt and wanted to be healthy, it was invigorating. The staff are so friendly and nake you feel at home. It felt like being in my family very cosy.

Very friendly and supportive staff. The surfing lesson we couldn’t attend one day was kindly replaced by massage. Flexible time for breakfasts and lunch. Very relaxed atmosphere.

The food was excellent. The location and facility was clean and very comfortable. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this facility!

The people who work at Rama Garden and Monkey Surfing were so welcoming and nice! They made my experience absolutely wonderful!

Das Santosha Shala liegt direkt am Strand und man hat einen fantastischen Blick aufs Meer während man Yoga macht.

Awesome experience..spent just few days there with my friend but was evth we needed for that short time. Food is amazing, healthy, vegan, organic..surf and yoga locations are 15 min away from the accomodation. You can also rent bikes or motorbikes and go explore the island.

Staff were helpful and polite.

Yoga was great at Serenity Yoga
