Organize a Yoga Retreat and Promote Your Event in Koh Samui
Nestled into a rocky cliff overlooking the blue waters of the Gulf of Thailand, Vikasa Yoga Retreat is the ideal beachfront venue on Koh Samui. Vikasa is the perfect tranquil backdrop to organize a unique journey of enlightenment and healing. The exotic location, surrounded by lush jungles and rustic secret beaches, offers a contrast to the daily life of many of our students, who come from urban environments, or miss the life-giving energy of the sun. It is a wonderful location to unplug from the hectic demands of the modern world and to absorb the positive energy of the surrounding nature. Host your own yoga retreat here and feel the power of transformation.
World Class Yoga Facilities
Each yoga hall in our yoga retreat venue is designed with comfort in mind; a tranquil space where students can learn without distraction.
We have three large halls and one small. Share your passion in an inspiring space with state of the art teaching tools. Enjoy a variety of spaces with options such as open-air, air conditioning, or teach yoga in nature on our private beach or cliff rocks.
Besides the four main yoga salas, there are various other spaces around the resort, which are both beautiful and great for activities, such as by the infinity pool, or on the infamous Vikasa cliff rocks, or on our own private beach. Most of our accommodation room styles have balconies, which are spacious enough for private meditation.
Black Lotus
Black Lotus Sala is our latest addition with 300 square meters, which fits 70 yoga mats comfortably. This is our largest sala, perfect for large groups. It’s conveniently located near the cafe with big views of the ocean.
Padma Sala
Padma Sala is perfectly located over the ocean, surrounded by nature, with a cliff on one side, and the sweeping sea wrapping around the 240 sqm which fits 50 students. Waves crashing in savasana is priceless.
White Prana Sala
White Prana Sala is one of the landmarks of Vikasa, and practising in it is an absolutely unforgettable experience. The 180 sqm tent provides circulating fresh air which allows for deep breathing for roughly 35 students.
Zen Sala
Zen Sala is the smallest in our collection which gives an intimate setting for smaller groups under 20. Private classes also enjoy this garden setting with the local birds and cicadas keeping the rhythm of the island.

A Range of Creative Accommodation
Vikasa offers a variety of unique room styles that meet a wide budget range. These different styles provide a selection of experiences to choose from, whether you’re looking for something authentic and eco-friendly, or you prefer the typical comforts of standard hotel. Although our rooms are simple and modest, our location is majestic and awe-inspiring, and the experience we provide is priceless and life altering. The advantage of an immersive retreat - as opposed to students learning during their free time, fitted around their normal routine - is that they can decouple from the ambient noise of daily life and become submerged in the ways of asana, pranayama, and meditation. We believe the most profound experiences happen when we are surrounded by new challenges and the warm hospitality of the local people will make you feel welcome and truly at home. From the tropical fruits to the nourishing weather, your new environment will make your group more open-minded and attuned to the learning experience. The blissful experience of mediating surrounded by positive energy, brings students into the ideal frame of mind and spirit to absorb the training of their yoga teacher and to explore their own journeys in an inspiring environment.
