You live and work the dream This retreat was highly recommended to me, so my expectations were high.

The staff, including the taxi driver at the airport, Vicky on arrival, cooks, cleaners, maintainance and the instructors were all friendly and welcoming.

I am not (or should I say wasn’t) a fan of pilates, but the quality of instruction has changed my mind and I have already done my homework and arranged to work with a pilates instructor back in the UK.

I loved the yoga. It is a shame you cannot take in the view whilst practicing. This only means one thing, an excuse to return in hope it is warm enough to practice outside near the wonderful pool.

The food was ok. I am super active and found that I needed a little bit more. The quantity provided (buffet) didn’t reflect the number of guests. But, by the end of the week I enjoyed the simplicity of what was offered.

The inclusive massage was amazing!

Staff really know the area, and are happy to offer advice and ideas. Where to walk, run, hire a bike, surf, eat, catch the bus ..you will not have any problems finding something to do on your day off.

The group was wonderful. 18 like minded souls from so many different parts of the world.

All that is left to say is THANK YOU ❤️ with all my heart from a cold, snowy Yorkshire (UK) xxx

The most amazing week! This place exceeded all expectations. The accommodation (yurt) was incredible. The place was in a lovely remote village with stunning views. There was a calmness to the place which allowed that time to rest and switch off. The classes were a combination of yoga and Pilates which has now created my new found love for Pilates which I’ve continued at home. The teachers are great. There’s a schedule for the week so nothing for you to worry about and this allows free time for exploration. There is a pool, however it’s freezing so some heating would add that extra touch. The hot tub is amazing. The place generally could do with a bit of TCL but it seems to work. The food is delicious. All vegetarian/vegan and very nutritious. We hired a car which allowed us freedom to explore the island when we had free time. We do recommend this. The retreat offer a transfer option to and from the airport if required. You can add extra sessions such as a sound bath, additional massages etc for an extra cost. A free massage was included in the booking which was a treat! There are also interesting workshops like essential oil. In terms of the island we would recommend the sand dunes and also the hike up mount rioja which had exceptional views. The staff were wonderful and friendly. There is a cute Saturday morning market is Lajares which was really nice! Restaurant Oum was also nice for our evening off. Please do check cleaning as our bedding wasn’t changed mid-week when it was supposed to be replaced. There is a cute shop there where you can buy bits and pieces from local sellers. If you want food outside of breakfast, lunch and dinner times there is a supermarket around 20-30 min walk away but there are little bits to purchase on site like fruit and snacks. Drinkable water is provided on site. The room had a hairdryer but no toiletries. Again, this would be another great touch to add some products to the rooms. Most people came solo and we met wonderful guests who we have kept in touch with. Overall, a wonderful stay and we would love to return again in the future.

Azulfit is really the best What can I say? Azulfit is really the best. I have done many wonderful retreats over the years and this is the only one I keep coming back to. The food is rejuvenating, the people are absolutely lovely and the teachers are the best. The perfect place to come solo, as a couple ,or with a group looking to get away to the sun for a week and feel great going back home. Perfect for beginners as well as those with experience in yoga/pilates. Azulfit caters for all!

Wow!! What can I say about Azulfit, apart from “Wow” and amazing from start to finish! Looking at previous TripAdvisor reviews, I was pretty confident I’d booked a great retreat for my first one, but even then it went above my expectations. From the minute I arrived to be greeted by a big hug from the lovely Tanya, the week was perfect. I was a solo traveller and it was a perfect mix of ages and everyone gone on really well. The retreat is timetabled and obviously a lot of thought has gone into it as I found it a perfect mix of classes and time to yourself. The yoga and pilates classes were delivered by truly amazing teachers who really made everyone feel welcome and supported. Special mention also goes to the wonderful cooks for the most delicious, colourful and nutritious food which they lovingly prepared for us at breakfast, lunch and dinner. In fact, everyone who works at Azulfit from the cleaners, office staff etc deserves recognition because they all contribute to making Azulfit a very special place. I can’t wait to return. The amount of repeat customer’s speaks for itself. And finally, the retreat for what it offers provides great value for money. Keep doing what you do, Azulfit. Namaste 🙏

A real feel of relax After a turbulent year this retreat was the best way to start a fresh. The booking was slightly confusing and a mix up on dates resulted in extra costs for my flights; this fortunately was the only issue. Once arrived at the airport the transfer was already waiting and a short ride talking with other guests helped me to start to relax. The room, inner Peace, was very comfortable. No toiletries provided other than the hand soap but a very welcome hairdryer ( as I hadn’t brought my own). The meditation, yoga and pilates were instructed to a very high standard. The sound bath was an overwhelming, but very necessary, experience (Tania was extremely supportive to manage the emotional experience I had). I felt safe to let my emotions and body experience all the benefits of this retreat. The free massage was excellent and I welcomed the opportunity to book another massage before the end of the week. The food was filling and nourishing. The beds were exceptionally comfortable and provided a wonderful nights sleep (I’ve even sourced the same mattress for my own bed). The teachers, cleaners and support staff at the retreat help to create a calming atmosphere. There is free time for you to do as much or as little as you like: reading by the pool or relaxing in the hot tub were favourites. A hike up a local volcano provided amazing views. A short bike ride to the beach was easy and safe given the cycle lane on the island. There are great local restaurants, supermarket and bakery within walking distance of the retreat which are lovely to visit with your new friends,

Excellent Retreat I can wholeheartedly recommend this lovely resort! Everything in Azulfit is excellent! The place is a paradise: peaceful, wonderful, clean and hygienic. Professional yoga and Pilates teachers give fantastic classes. The staff is very friendly and caring. You will find everything here to completely unwind and fully recharge.

Sun, sea, stretching I celebrated new year at Azulfit. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. The yoga teachers and Pilates teaching were very experienced and gave lots of modifications according to ability. The food was very healthy and the catering team cater for individual dietary needs. The inclusive massage was relaxing. It is located in a rural area away from hustle and bustle – so lovely place to recharge. We had a mix of German, Dutch, Austrian, Swedish and British participants and got on very well. I felt refreshed by the sun, sea and stretching. It has given me motivation to do more Pilates in 2026.
My only suggestion would be to get a hire car to explore the beaches as the buses can be infrequent.

Great Value Yoga in the Sun ☀️ This was my third solo trip to Azulfit. It is a great value retreat, simple but very clean accommodation, delicious food, wonderful teachers and therapists. After every visit, I return home feeling 100 times better. ❤️

Fabulous experience This was my second time at Azulfit and it is without doubt one of the finest places to visit to practice yoga and eat fresh healthy food.
The staff are incredibly accommodating and the vibe is first class. Will return!!

So good that I want to come back ❤️ I came back relaxed, happy and strong. Friendliest staff you’ll ever meet, well thought trough food and inspiring teachers. Beautiful and calm environment.

Movement, sun and the right spirit Such a relaxing and at the same time active holiday – that was exactly the right mix on the second stay at Azulfit. Again, I met so many nice people and the yoga and Pilates classes are suitable for all levels and bring a visible success even after just one week. Again I can say: it was certainly not the last time I was here! Fantastic ☀️☀️☀️

Wonderful As special as always — my 5th trip and each one feels like a reset. The instructors, food, and atmosphere are wonderful. Whether you go alone, with a partner, or with friends, it’s always a joy.🥰
