The lodge is a great place to connect with yourself and grow. It is a place in nature and super peaceful. They also offer a big variety of treatments and I got to join amazing therapies, weekly meditations and sessions there. The people I met were super kind and Renée and her family the lodge & Opa are super helpful and inviting.
I can recommend it for everyone who is looking for a place that you don't need a vacation from after, to charge up while supporting a business. I also got to teach my own Yoga classes there which was a super big benefit 🫶🏽. Thank you the lodge

Thank you so much, Tabea! We already miss your yoga classes and your delicious food. It was a joy to have you here, your energy, your creativity and your big smile made OMA brighter every day. We're so happy you felt at home and got to share your yoga with our guests. Oma, Opa and the whole team send you a big hug. You'll always have a home here! 🫶

Volunteering with the lodge for 4 months has been a wonderful experience. Renée and the team members, Practitioners, and guests became an extended family. I would recommend this experience. I would keep in mind taking an Uber is the best way to get around there are not many things walking distance. Also, flexibility is needed if you have a strict remote work schedule. An experience like no other, I'm confident you'd enjoy it.

Thank you so much for your beautiful words.

Having you with us for 4 months was truly a gift. You became part of the OMA family, and we’re so grateful for your presence, laughs, and joy during your time here.

Thank you as well for your honest recommendations — yes, being immersed in the jungle is part of OMA’s magic, and flexibility is definitely important to fully enjoy the experience.

We wish you the very best in your journey and you will always have a home at OMA

My experience at the accommodation has been very good; I have connected with nature, with the local culture, and with well-being.
The place is very beautiful, very peaceful, and it allows you to disconnect and slow the pace.
I also felt very safe and very warmly welcomed by the entire team.
I am grateful for these months I have spent at the center, as they have been a time of great self-knowledge and a lot of learning.

Thank you so much for these beautiful words! It was a gift to have you with us all these months. We're so happy OMA was a place where you could slow down, connect with nature and with yourself, and that you felt safe and at home with our team. Watching you grow and discover so much during your time here was truly special. Thanks for all your delicious meals; we miss them already! You'll always be part of the OMA family, and our doors are always open for you! 🫶

The accommodation is an incredible place!! Mrs. the accommodation, René and all the staff are very kind. The food is delicious and the place is full of magic. If you want to connect with yourself and with nature this is the ideal place. However, you must take responsibility for the tasks. I was helping with breakfasts and dinners, serving, preparing and washing. In my free time I could give or receive therapies and the truth is that yes, it is a very healing place. You meet people from all over the world and you can connect with local people as well. Thank you for welcoming me to such a beautiful place. 🤍 I hope to return soon!!

What a beautiful message, thank you from the bottom of my heart. We love knowing that you experienced OMA in that way and that you were able to connect with yourself, with nature, and with everything that moves in this space.

We also want to thank you—for your help, your willingness, and the way you integrated into the team. Your light and loving energy was felt at every moment, both with the guests and with the team

I hope you’ll return soon — to do your retreats. We’re waiting for you!
