The Experience

Wake up to the sound of howler monkeys and call a 2.5 acre lakeside jungle sanctuary home. Live in your own private room with a shared community kitchen and become more than a yoga teacher. As the face of Samaya, you'll welcome guests, lead energizing morning yoga classes, and guide unforgettable afternoon wellness journeys featuring sunset yoga, Temazcal, and sauna. Between classes, guests explore jungle trails, paddle boards, and kayaks.

Mat and Medellin were great hosts. They are very accommodating and welcoming so if you need something, just communicate! As the yoga instructor I enjoyed having the routine of teaching morning classes but also the freedom to share my practice the way I wanted. the host is a special place, I would recommend it to anyone who wants to slow down and find meaningful connections. Everyday at the host is peaceful and it was so helpful to be able to clear my head for a few weeks. I am beyond grateful for my experience and I hope to return in the future! 🧚🏼πŸͺ·πŸ’Ÿ

I felt so privileged to be there and co create many beautiful events together! Since the beginning, I felt I was so welcomed and appreciated to be a part of their small cozy team. Every Worker there was a local so it was great opportunity to practice Spanish too! I also felt supported well emotionally and physically too. The property is stunning it's like a luxurious jungle life ! I enjoyed every experience! I was the first living in volunteer for them so we experienced difficult moments together too but after all that transformation, we all grew beautifully and learned the lesson as friends.
