Yoga holiday in Cuba

Experience the Best of Cuba!
 

On this retreat, you’ll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in yoga and meditation every morning and evening – under the open sky with views of lakes, palm trees, and green mountains. We begin with two days in beautiful and culturally rich Havana, but we’ll primarily stay at Casa Prima in El Rosario, which we travel to on Day 3 (see the full program below at the bototm of this info page). You’ll experience a simple and beautiful retreat setting, surrounded by nature and silence. Here, we practice yoga on a covered outdoor terrace morning and evening, dine under the stars, and feel deeply connected – both to the earth and to each other. In Havana, we stay at Tribe Caribe Cayo Hueso (Day 1 and 2) and Casa Albero Dulce (Day 11, just before departure).

​

There is space here for both rest, rhythm, and slowness, as the days gently unfold in western Cuba’s warm and lush landscapes.

It’s a heartfelt invitation to step away from the pace of everyday life and into a space where your senses awaken and your body has room to breathe. In addition to the daily yoga and reflection sessions, the program includes rich excursions and meaningful encounters with Cuban nature and culture.

​

Program highlights beyond yoga include:

– A full-day beach trip to the paradise island of Cayo Jutías, where we drive on bumpy dirt roads through green hills and palm groves in small off-road vehicles. The day offers swimming, snorkeling, relaxation, and lunch served with your feet in the white sand and views of turquoise sea.
 

– A guided day trip to the lush Viñales Valley, where we hike among limestone mountains and red earth, visit tobacco farmers, and float silently through an underground river surrounded by natural beauty.
 

– Countless amazing food experiences. We don’t just eat to feel full – we taste our way through Cuba’s delicious cuisine. From rustic, open-fire meals in the countryside to Havana’s most iconic restaurant, La Guarida – famous in film, politics, and art, and beloved for its elevated Cuban cuisine and rooftop views.
 

– Sunset yoga on a hilltop with 360° views – a space for silence, connection, and perhaps a Caribbean cocktail in hand.
 

– Exploring Havana on foot – through faded facades, lush courtyards, and colorful colonial streets. Along the way, we dance in a local salsa workshop and ride through the city in a classic American car – just as the locals still do. A way to feel the
city – in both body and tempo.
 

– Plenty of time to just be – read in the shade, swim in the lake, nap, sit in silence, or walk in the surrounding landscape.

​

Optional activities (booked and paid for on-site):

❂ Meals:
We’ll be treated to nourishing meals prepared with love and local ingredients. During the first two days in Havana, both breakfast and dinner are included. You only cover lunch on Day 2. From Day 3 at Casa Prima in El Rosario, all meals are included. The food is vegetarian and largely harvested from the retreat’s own garden – ranging from fresh fruit and yuca to creative takes on classic Cuban dishes. For excursions, we bring packed lunches or eat out together.

​

❂ Accommodation:
We’ll stay in beautiful and atmospheric casas with single or double rooms – both in Havana and in El Rosario. In Havana, we stay centrally at the charming Tribe Caribe Cayo Hueso, and the night before our return we’ll stay at Casa Albero Dulce. At Casa Prima, the retreat center in El Rosario, we sleep in nature-rich surroundings, in simple yet soulful rooms with space for rest and reflection. All rooms have a private bathroom and access to shared spaces and nature right outside your door.

Single rooms are available at an extra cost – feel free to reach out if you’d like one, as availability is limited.
