Find Your Inner Peace: A Guide to the Best Yoga Retreats in Mallorca

Tracing back over 5000 years to Northern India, yoga has been practised for millennia and is now an integral part of contemporary life for many. The word “yoga” comes from the Sanskrit, “yuj”, which means “to connect”, which points to why this type of exercise is often considered the key to spiritual, mental and physical health. Mallorca, an island with a bohemian spirit, is home to many yoga centres and retreats, in Palma and around the island. Here are some of our favourites. We hope you enjoy them. Namaste. 

1. Recharge and Renew: Top Yoga Studios in and around Palma

2. Connect with Nature: The Most Beautiful Yoga Retreats in Mallorca

Travelling north to Pollenca and the foothills of the Tramuntana, La Serranía is a serene retreat for those seeking inner peace surrounded by olive trees, greenery and pure nature. The property has 10 double bedrooms, a swimming pool and a yoga studio with mountain views where you can enjoy multiple yoga and pranayama classes daily. Unwind with a massage and nourish your body with the menu of organic dishes combining fresh Mediterranean with Middle Eastern and Asian influences. 

Tramuntana Flow in Sa Cabaneta, a small village 10 minutes from Palma, has a spacious indoor yoga shala and an open-air yoga terrace with views of the valley and the mountains. There is also a swimming pool alongside garden and picnic areas, where you can enjoy the organic menu or ayurvedic meals cooked by local chefs.
