About this trip

Join us for a transformative 5-day/4-night retreat in 5-star luxury at Zannier Hotels Bãi San Hô in Vietnam guided by physician and renowned yoga teacher, Ingrid Yang M.D., C-IAYT, E-RYT-500. Immerse yourself in daily yoga practices, ranging from invigorating vinyasa flows in the mornings to restorative yin, yoga nidra, and reiki in the evenings. You’ll enjoy a traditional Vietnamese cooking class with the renowned Vietnamese chef, spend a day on a cultural tour of the neighboring Vietnamese village, and indulge in the most delicious food you will ever eat! This retreat offers a harmonious blend of wellness and cultural immersion amidst the natural beauty of a secluded Vietnamese peninsula.


Experience tranquility in luxurious villas that represent Vietnam's architectural heritage, enjoy diverse culinary experiences, and holistic spa treatments. Engage in beach and water activities or explore the local culture and history. Surrounded by lush hills and a pristine coral bay, this retreat is an ideal setting for rejuvenation and inner peace.


Sign up early because all of Ingrid's retreats sell out at least 6 months in advance!


Q&A

1. What is the difference between a Terrace and a Paddy Villa?

Both the Terrace and Paddy Villas offer luxurious accommodations. The primary difference is that the Paddy Villa includes an outdoor seating area, whereas the Terrace Villa does not. If you enjoy relaxing outdoors in your own space, the Paddy Villa would be preferable. However, if you are not an outdoor hanger-outer and you plan to spend most of your time enjoying the resort’s numerous activities and amenities (there are MANY), a Terrace Villa will suit your needs perfectly.


2. The Pool Villa is more expensive; is it worth it?

The Pool Villa offers an unparalleled experience with its private pool and expansive living space. Although it is more expensive (approx an extra $325 per night) —the value it offers is significant, especially for those who appreciate having their own pool, an amazing view (for the Hilltop Villas) or instant acccess to the private beach (Beach Villas). Not until I visited the resort did I see it is totally worth the extra cost, and I think you will too. There are few places in the world that offer this kind of luxury, space, and access for such an affordable price and it will make your retreat exceptionally memorable.


3. What is the cancellation policy?

Our cancellation policy is designed to be as accommodating as possible within the constraints of a highly sought-after retreat. All deposits are non-refundable. After the full payment due date of November 15, 2024, your deposit is still non-refundable, but if you’ve paid in full and must cancel, you can receive a full refund of the balance provided this is done before the due date. Post November 15, if you cannot attend, you are welcome to find a replacement attendee, subject to approval by Ingrid.


4. Do I need trip insurance?

Given the terms of our cancellation policy, purchasing travel insurance is strongly recommended. This ensures that you are covered in cases of unexpected cancellations due to illness or other unforeseeable circumstances. Many credit cards provide excellent travel insurance options, so it’s worth checking with your provider.


5. Do I need yoga experience?

Our retreat caters to all levels of yoga practitioners, from beginners to advanced. Dr. Ingrid Yang’s vast experience ensures that everyone can participate comfortably and benefit from the daily yoga sessions. Whether you are new to yoga or have been practicing for years, you will find the practices enriching and adaptable to your level.


6. Is transport included?

Transportation to the resort is included only if you arrive on the recommended flight. This is provided via a 34-seat resort bus. For arrivals at other times, you will need to arrange your own transportation, which the resort can help facilitate for approximately $40 USD each way. Please plan accordingly to ensure a smooth start to your retreat experience.


7. Can the retreat accommodate all dietary needs, such as vegan, gluten-free, etc.?

Absolutely! The resort's restaurants accommodate various dietary requirements to ensure every participant enjoys a holistic and nurturing dining experience. Our retreat offers a diverse culinary adventure, with menus crafted by skilled chefs who are well-versed in preparing vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, and other special diet meals. When you register, you will have the opportunity to specify your dietary preferences and any allergies. This information will be used to tailor every meal to suit your dietary needs throughout the retreat, ensuring you have delicious and healthy options at every meal.

This was my first and definitely not last yoga retreat with Ingrid and I had wonderful time! Thank you so so much! The resort is situated by Aegean Sea, the grounds are enormous and include several pools, private villas, walking trails, bike paths, huge full service spa and gym, yoga rooms, squash basketball tennis court and several restaurants. The rooms, the service, the hospitality and the food is above and beyond. The cleanliness is exceptional in the rooms and anywhere on the resort grounds. A group of people I was with was delightful and we had such a good time. The organizer, Ingrid, made sure everyday was packed with activities. We explored the spa, the ruins, beach and of course the yoga experience was the icing on a cake! I enjoyed every single session Ingrid introduced me to: vinyasa, restorative yoga sound bath and so much more. She is so sweet and is a wonderful human being and I’m totally down to go to any other retreats she organizes.

This was the most amazing trip I have ever been on. I so appreciated the thought that went into everything and not having to plan it my self. Thank you so much Ingrid for getting me back into yoga and making me take care of myself with this retreat.
