The resort is beautiful. I loved waking up here and wandering through the palm trees. I loved my jungle cottage. The staff were amazing, always on hand to cook, bring drinks, clean the room or organise massages/rickshaws. The yoga shala is beautiful. Fantastic location, just a short walk to Patnem Beach. I would highly recommend and will most definitely return.

The yoga classes and tutorials were packed with information, laughters and insight. The yoga teachers and instructors have so much to share about practice but in a fun environment. I really learnt a lot, both on and off the mat. I would recommend this Yoga Training 100%!!

I did my 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training with Julia and it was simply amazing. Everyone at Palm Trees Yoga Resort is so lovely. The food is delicious and the resort is so beautiful with all the palm trees, plants and sculptures. The yoga shala is well equipped with a lovely view of the surrounding palm trees and river. The yoga teachers do an amazing job. I have learned so much.
