Sansara surf & yoga resort

Retreat to nature, the jungle, and the beach at this beachfront, luxury resort with a laid-back feel. The perfect backdrop to completely immerse yourself in this retreat. 

The resort has eleven private oceanfront cabanas, designed to inspire serenity. The zen-like atmosphere of Sansara blends seamlessly with the quiet beauty of Cambutal. Each cabana features a view of the tropical gardens, has a private patio and is just steps away from the warm water of the Pacific Ocean. And because you fancy, each cabana is equipped with organic bath products, hot water, air-conditioning and a mini-fridge. When you're not learning or yoga'ing, you'll be in a hammock, chilling by the natural salt water pool, meditating on the beach, or surfing at sunset.

Travelling to the resort 

You'll fly into Panama City, Panama. We highly recommend flying into Panama City a day before the retreat starts (OCTOBER 16, 2024) booking a hotel for one night in Panama City, Casco Viejo district (Sansara has a secured rate at Central Hotel). The resort is a five-hour drive away from Panama City. The cost of the resort shuttle, to and from, is included. The shuttle will pick you up from your hotel and we will travel as a group. The shuttle will leave at approx 9 am, which means you will arrive at the resort around 3pm, with enough time to settle in before the welcome dinner.

It is your responsibility to book the hotel in Panama City and transportation to and from the airport. We can support with logistics of connecting you with other guests. Once you book your flights, please send us the details. It is strongly encouraged and recommended to purchase travel and cancellation insurance.

We recommend booking a hotel in Panama City when the retreat is over and flying out the following day (NOVEMBER 2, 2024). If you do choose to fly out on November 1, 2024, please book a flight leaving no earlier than 8 pm, as we can not guarantee the shuttle will arrive in the city before 6 pm.
