Yoga holiday Spain: Shanti Som
Shanti-Som Wellbeing Retreat is an exceptional retreat destination. Nestled in the midst of nature, surrounded by the Sierra de las Nieves Nature Park, it brings together elements of Balinese architecture and Oriental gardens creating a slice of luxurious eastern style within easy travelling time from Europe’s major cities. Tucked away in a shallow valley, surrounded by rolling hills and open countryside, Shanti Som lets you escape the hustle and bustle of modern life and immerse yourself in all things healthy and peaceful. The food is delicious, nutritious and healthy; the spa offers an excellent array of treatments and therapies; the yoga pavilion is a triumph; the hillside heate pool is a tranquil oasis and the bedrooms are supremely comfortable, and all with stunning en suite shower rooms.Yoga at Shanti Som

Holiday Accommodation
The ethos at Shanti Som is that bedrooms are designed for rest and relaxation. With this in mind, guests can expect a quiet stroll from the main lobby to reach their bedroom. Inside each room you’ll find comfy beds and your own robe to relax in- we’d recommend enjoying your complimentary herbal tea out on your private balcony or terrace as the perfect start to your day!
The ensuite bathrooms offer lovely complimentary toiletries and large rainfall showers.
Delectable Food
When you wake in the mornings we invite everyone to enjoy tea and fruit as a healthy way to start the day. A delicious brunch will follow after the morning yoga session and you can also purchase fresh juices from the bar.
In the afternoon the group will meet for tea and snacks which often include crudities and energy balls.
For the evening meal guests have a choice between a tasty vegetarian or meat and fish dish. Whichever you choose, you can expect a variety of flavours inspired by western and Asian cuisine.
