Absolute Entspannung

I've been to Surf Spirit's Jungle Villa for a second time with my girlfriend and we would come back anytime. The location, the food, the employees... absolutely world-class - For beginners, there are ideal conditions to take their first steps on the board. Morning surf guiding is ideal for intermediates. The coaches have a plan to respond to each student. I've already been to many surf camps but this is by far the best I've been to so far.

Der perfekte Ort für ein Retreat

Der Vibe war super, da alle zur gleichen Zeit ankamen und wir feste Gruppen hatten! Das war so viel schöner als in anderen Surfcamps. Ein großes Dankeschön auch an das gesamte Team! Die Dschungelvilla war fantastisch, sie war der perfekte Ort für einen Retreat. Ich kann mich nicht auf ein einziges Highlight beschränken :) Lieder am Lagerfeuer, die Party gestern Abend, das Eisbad und die Sauna

Come as a guest, leave as friends

Ich hatte eine wirklich schöne Woche hier in der Jungle Villa. Die Surflehrer waren alle sehr gut! Ich habe mich sehr sicher gefühlt und es hat viel Spaß mit ihnen gemacht! Sie haben uns sehr gut unterrichtet. Das Küchenpersonal in der Villa hat unfassbar lecker gekocht und immer darauf geachtet, dass alles in Ordnung war. Das gesamte Personal wirkte wie eine Familie. Und auch wir hatten eine so nette Gruppe, dass wirklich Freundschaften in dieser einen Woche gefunden haben.

Absolut fantastisches Erlebnis

Es war ein absolut fantastisches Erlebnis! Jeder Einzelne im Team hat sich voll und ganz dafür eingesetzt, dass wir als Gäste eine wundervolle Zeit hatten. Das Essen war sehr lecker, und auf Vegetarier wurde besonders Rücksicht genommen. Die Yoga-Kurse waren wunderbar gestaltet und auch die Surf-Trainer waren fantastisch – sie gingen auf jeden Einzelnen ein und arbeiteten gemeinsam mit uns an unseren Fortschritten. Das gesamte Team war absolut wunderbar, und es war immer jemand vor Ort, falls man etwas brauchte. Ich würde es jederzeit wieder buchen!!

Action & relax

A wonderful place to relax. The perfect mix of action and relaxation. The surf lessons helped me a lot and the direct location on the beach makes it easy to get out on the water at any time. The accommodation and food are excellent and the team behind it makes the stay completely uncomplicated and familiar.

5 Sterne sind nicht genug!

Eine magische Auszeit im Paradies – 5 Sterne sind nicht genug! Ich durfte eine Woche in der wunderschönen Jungle Villa verbringen, und es war einfach unbeschreiblich! Von der ersten Sekunde an fühlte ich mich wie im Paradies. Der Pool war der perfekte Ort zum Entspannen zwischen den Yoga- und Surf-Sessions, das Essen himmlisch und jeder einzelne Moment voller positiver Energie. Ich habe nicht nur meine Liebe zum Surfen und Yoga vertieft, sondern auch wundervolle Menschen kennengelernt. Egal ob Anfänger oder Fortgeschrittener, hier fühlt sich glaube ich jeder perfekt aufgehoben. Ich kann es kaum erwarten, wiederzukommen!

I will come back!

We've been to Surf Spirit for the second time now and it has exceeded our expectations every time! 😍 The food is simply amazing, always fresh and super lovingly prepared. The Jungle Villa is a paradise you could really relax. The people are all super friendly and helpful. The surf lessons were awesome and I immediately feel safer and have the feeling that I can surf. We would love to come back!

Perfect start into the new year.

Thank you so much for this week, it was a perfect start to the new year. The surf lessons, yoga, and food were great, and I felt really comfortable here. I particularly appreciated how patiently the coaches helped us become more and more independent on the board and how they answered each of our questions (and I had many). I wish I could stay longer — I'm already jealous of the next groups that are coming. Thanks again to the entire team, from management to coaches to local staff.

Come as a guest, leave as a friend

Ich war zum zweiten Mal in der Beach Lodge, weil es mir beim ersten Mal so gut gefallen hat! Und wieder habe ich jede Sekunde meines Aufenthalts genossen. Das gesamte Team war so fürsorglich – das Motto „Komm als Gast, geh als Freund“ habe ich genau so erlebt! Die Surf- und Yogakurse haben Spaß gemacht und waren eine perfekte Balance zwischen Bewegung und Entspannung. Danke euch!

You can immediately tell the passion

The team is incredibly friendly. You can tell right away that a lot of passion is put into the work here and that it is important that everyone feels at home. The kitchen team conjures up excellent food. I also felt very picked up for my surfing level. The yoga was challenging in a good way and it made me feel really strong.

The perfect mix

I loved the combination of yoga and surfing — it was the perfect mix! The people are friendly and very helpful, both locals and international employees. It was particularly nice how we grew together so quickly as a group: surfing and laughing together over dinner. The emotions that arose after evening yoga connected us in a profound way.

Incredible experience

Everything was perfect! There isn't a single thing I didn't like. The atmosphere in the group was simply outstanding and you could really feel the spirit of Surf Spirit. There were so many highlights, but the surf lessons were incredibly fun and simply great! They're all really, really great surf coaches, but most of all, they're warm, funny and you just love being around them. The yoga classes were also unbelievable. I've never felt such a strong connection to myself and also to the people I met just a week ago. The food and the entire team were simply fantastic, there is absolutely nothing to complain about. I loved waking up in the morning and enjoying the tastiest breakfast I've ever had.

You have to experience it yourself

Ein Traum wie auf einer Postkarte! Ich hatte während meines gesamten Aufenthalts ein breites Lächeln im Gesicht! Diese zwei Wochen in Sri Lanka waren zwei der schönsten und unglaublichsten Wochen, die ich je erlebt habe. Dieser Ort, das Surfen, das Yoga, die Sonnenauf- und -untergänge – aber das Wichtigste und Beeindruckendste: das Team! Das hat meinen Aufenthalt so besonders gemacht – die herzerwärmende Energie jedes Einzelnen.

FAQs

Sind Surf & Yoga an beiden Locations inklusive?

Ja! An beiden Locations erwartet dich unser Surf & Yoga Paket mit Surf Lessons für verschiedene Level, Yoga, Meditation und Surf-Videoanalyse. In der Jungle Villa hast du zusätzlich noch die Möglichkeit, es dir mit einer Massage gut gehen zu lassen oder auch mit einer Sauna und Eisbad Session deinem Körper etwas gutes zu tun.

Kann ich während meines Aufenthalts auch die andere Location besuchen?

Natürlich! Auch wenn du dich für eine der beiden Locations entscheidest, kannst du jeder Zeit die andere Location besuchen.
‍
Bist du in der Beach Lodge möchtest du vielleicht einmal den Pool nutzen und falls du in der Jungle Villa bist, möchtest du nachmittags vielleicht auch einmal an den Strand in die Beach Lodge.

Die beiden Locations liegen nah beieinander und du kannst die Umgebung, den Strand und natürlich auch die verschiedenen Surfspots in der Gegend entdecken.

What is the difference between the Jungle Villa and the Beach Lodge?

‍

The biggest difference is the location and the atmosphere that comes with it. The Jungle Villa is tucked away in lush tropical greenery, offering a peaceful retreat with a large pool and plenty of cozy spots to relax.

The Beach Lodge, on the other hand, is located right by the ocean at our home surf spot. You can watch the waves from your balcony and practice yoga in our rooftop shala with a view of the sea.

Both locations offer a fantastic mix of surfing, yoga, and great company. It’s entirely up to you whether you prefer jungle vibes or beach life.

‍

What levels are the Surf & Yoga courses in Sri Lanka suitable for?

Our Jungle Villa and our Beach Lodge are suitable for surfers of all levels, as we can cater to both our bloody beginners and our advanced surfers with our guiding concept. Our qualified surf instructors will share your current surfing level with you upon arrival and can therefore be sure that we will challenge and support you in the best possible way during your week with us.

Surfers who want to go surfing on their own can borrow our boards free of charge at the Beach Lodge at any time.

In addition, we offer video analysis at both locations, which has proven effective for both beginners and intermediates. We really do our best to provide all our guests at all levels with the lessons they need to achieve individual goals.

What is included in my package and what is not?

Our regular surf and yoga package in both locations includes everything you need for your retreat week.

If you wish, you can order additional drinks or snacks from our bar for the prices listed on the menu, for example. Other extra services include: additional massages (Jungle Villa), your surf photo package, trips on your session-free day, airport transfer, T-shirts, tips, etc. Of course, these are all volunteers, extras that can be booked on site. Everything can and nothing must. Payment for all desired extras takes place at the end of your week in retreat and can be made in cash or by card in euros or rupees.
