Sansara Surf Yoga & Resort

After having Sansara on my wishlist for such a long time, I finally had the chance to visit with my husband, and we had such a wonderful experience. The place truly feels magical. The design is beautiful and modern while still preserving the essence of Panama. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, the food was absolutely delicious, and we had one of the best massages we’ve ever had. One of my favorite parts was being able to take yoga classes with the ocean just a few steps away. There’s something very special about the atmosphere at Sansara—it really allows you to slow down, disconnect, and simply enjoy where you are. We had an amazing experience and will definitely be back to discover more of everything Sansara has to offer!

This is a trip I will remember forever. From the scenic drive up, to everyone taking the time to know my name and care about my allergies. Everything about this experience was special from the beginning - the friendly staff, incredible food and amazing playlists. That rooms are amazing, it's perfectly located on an incredible beach and I felt so safe. This place is full of love

We recently led our 6th retreat over a 10-year span at Sansara. It's a place we call home, and we love that we can always count on the experience to be magical. The roots of Sansara are still firmly in place. Stellar service, luxe accommodations, attention to detail, co-creation of the retreat experience, and respect for the local Panamanian community, but there is even more on offer now. Sansara continues to grow and improve, with upgrades on every visit. We are so grateful for the kismet that brought us to this place, and the magic that keeps bringing us back. Love to all the family and staff at Sansara-you make this place what it is!

Such a beautiful oasis of great food, activities, and healing. The staff was so nice and caring. It felt really safe and we had so much fun.

This place is magical if you make your way your stepping into lush gardens and pockets of wonder. You’re going to be met by the most attentive staff, your rooms are luxury accommodation to the spa, food, and yoga. However you will meet your soul on the yoga mat. However, you will get in contact with your inner self or perhaps child on the excursions. It will go down as the best experience of your life! And you will be forever grateful. I truly cannot say enough about my experience here! Go!! You won’t be disappointed one bit!

Slice of paradise. Room with an ocean view, comfortable, and very clean. Amazing and patient staff. Food is incredible and healthy. Surfing for first time and we are in our 60s, had a blast. Nature hike -a great experience. Yoga with an ocean view and wonderful teachers. The spa is the best. Really a priceless memory. Thank you Sansara; a beautiful escape.

Magical. Magical is the only way to describe this resort & the yoga retreat at Sansara in Panama. From the people participating in the retreat and resort staff, to the accommodations and setting, to the cuisine served - all were magical. Most especially Nienke for Reiki. Magical. I truly did not anticipate such a spiritual journey. Thank you

I come back year after year for the excellent service, privacy and unreal beauty of this place. It just keeps getting better!

The perfect getaway during the hectic holiday season. The lodge is absolutely exceptional, featuring unique and beautifully comfortable rooms. The food is fresh, healthy, and delicious—artfully presented with Michelin-star–level care, yet served in a warm, cozy setting. The drinks, smoothies, and juices are innovative and outstanding. Guests can enjoy an impressive range of activities, from daily yoga and horseback riding to professional surf instruction, hiking, stand-up paddleboarding, and fishing expeditions. The lodge is staffed by local Panamanians who truly make you feel at home while delivering exceptional service across the board—from the front desk and restaurant to tours and room service. I’m not typically a beach-vacation person, but Sansara exceeded every expectation.
