The Sacred Rest Yoga Retreat with Natalie and Katie was a deeply moving experience that offered space for true restoration and reflection. Every practice was thoughtfully guided, creating connections and deep repair that my body/mind so desperately needed. I left feeling renewed—and I can't wait for the next one.

Working with Katie is an absolute dream. The coordination, the team work and the cohesiveness on facilitating the Irish retreat was just flawless. Katies attention to detail, the wide and in depth knowledge of planning, co ordination and guest experience was second to none. Katie was always very helpful, professional and extremely courteous. Everything was delivered in a very timely fashion. Working with Katie is easeful & efficient and I would highly recommend her services.

I give the Ballybunion, Ireland yoga retreat a five-star rating. Aside from being blessed with amazing weather, we were fortunate to have accommodations within walking distance to the beach. On our first day, we were greeted with the best lattes I ever had in the hotel lobby. The staff were extremely accommodating and friendly. Our rooms were comfortable and had beautiful views that looked out over the ocean.
The trip included the perfect blend of activities and downtime to visit with others on the retreat or to simply peruse the local shops and restaurants. Each morning a plentiful breakfast box was delivered to our door, which was personalized for our special dietary needs. As we headed down for the day's excursions, we were notified what the activities for the day would be and the timing of each. In the evening, after we spent a day enjoying the local sights or participating in numerous yoga classes, we were offered a menu that again catered to vegetarians, dairy, and gluten-free needs. There was plenty of variety and it gave us a chance to sample the local cuisine. I was shocked that the three-course dinners were prepared by the hotel owner, who is also a top-rated chef.
I highly recommend this retreat to anyone seeking adventure and a chance to practice yoga in various spiritual settings. I thoroughly enjoyed it and the hospitality of the Irish locals.

My first impression was that the retreat was a thoughtfully curated adventure with exceptional care for the guests’ experience. Prior to the retreat, we were offered the opportunity to attend a pre-meeting to meet the other guests, ask any questions, and address any concerns. The open communication carried throughout the retreat amongst event coordinators and guests. More importantly, the initial meetings kicked off relationship building that also continued throughout the retreat creating a safe, open, and comfortable environment.
We were provided with more than the itinerary such as what to expect, take, and wear. Reminders were provided every evening about the following day's activities. Though every day was meticulously planned, the itinerary still allowed personal time to take in the sites, enjoy the beach, or luxuriate in local spa treatments. We were provided with options and contact information for free time offerings, relieving the burden from the guests.
I particularly appreciated the relationship Sangha Events had with the vendors from which we truly benefited. The hotel and restaurant were welcoming and accommodating. They went above and beyond to ensure we felt at home. The food was excellent, and the chef accommodated all dietary needs. Every plate was beautiful and exceeded expectations.
The accommodations were spacious and provided fabulous views overlooking the ocean and a local monument. Facilities were selected that enhanced the experience and our yoga practice.
Tours provided the opportunity to explore the region and visit must-see sites. Evenings allowed us to partake in local festivities. It felt like a true vacation with a mix of cultural, spiritual, and bonding opportunities.
The retreat was such a blessing, and I would highly recommend it.
