Los Clavos Surf Camp

My first time in Alps, and yoga retreat! The whole team is well organised, harmonious, professional. Clare was very thoughtful of my slow hiking and made sure to show me some techniques which helped my painful knees. Both Clare and Romaine gave their best as hosts, including exchanging my mattress when my back hurt. And the place was stunning, like the wooden house in the movie Twilight :-) fantastic food with fresh cheeses from the local farmers, and super delish meals cooked by family and hosts(mad skills)! We did yoga with lovely and bubbly Julia, hiked, hugged some trees (mostly me), visited Annecy, swam in the amazingly clean turquoise lake, walked around towns...lovely feature is a heart shaped clearing opposite the house. :-) Overall the week felt like spending time with friends and family. The group was amazing too, such interesting people:-) I wish you all the best!

I loved the food!! The Yoga instructor Haley was amazing and very motivating!

Removed from the hustle & bustle of city life, the Los Clavos Camp is secluded and practically off-grid. The activities were well thought out and scheduled so as not to overlap with any conflicting interests, so we were busy from sunrise to sunset with plenty of hammock time in between adventures. The food was well-rounded, the hospitality was on-point and we were welcomed with open arms right into the fold.

Amazing location, amazing food, amazing holiday. Romain and Claire who runs the camp were extremely friendly and made me feel very welcome. I would like to go back soon!

If you're looking for a place to truly relax and get away from the stress of life, I highly recommend you head to Los Clavos.

I liked literally everything. The accommodations were clean and new with beautiful ocean views. The food (both French and Nicaraguan was served) was delicious, local, and plentiful. The yoga and surfing exceeded our expectations based on location and quality. The saline pool was a wonderful oasis on hot days after a morning of surfing. And finally, the rancho with it's comfortable couches and hammocks, was a perfect place to spend an afternoon reading, playing games, or napping.

Claire and Romain are thoughtful and helpful - and are very good pétanque players so competitors beware.

Julia Gavin is a remarkable yoga teacher who was able to encourage and push us in our practice. She also is very good at understanding the needs of the body and was able to work with those needs and limitations.

Donald the surf instructor got both me and my traveling companion up and surfing! He's very patient and encouraging. He also was sure to put safety first.

Los Clavos Surf camp is a beautiful destination for anyone looking to unplug from their daily life and connect with nature and themselves. The ocean view, especially at sunset yoga is spectacular. Romain and Claire have created a space that is inviting and relaxing for all. They are truly spectacular hosts who've created a week long retreat that was exactly what we needed - surf, sun, yoga, beach, hammocks, great food, great people and a puppy. Julia Gavin's yoga classes were tailored specifically to our needs and she spent extra time creating a back bend workshop with Myofascia release. She is extremely talented, knowledgeable and a joy to be around. Our surf instructor, Donald, was patient and fun, while keeping us safe as we learned how to surf. Each meal was delicious and fresh - they even accommodated a vegan diet. All in all it was an amazing experience and I wish I was there right now.

J'ai passé un excellent séjour. L'ambiance de groupe était super, les séances de yoga de qualité et les randonnées (sportives) en montagne étaient magnifiques.

Un grand merci à Claire et Romain pour leur accueil chaleureux et leur convivialité. Les petits plats préparés avec amour sont à recommander.

The instructors and teachers were the best part, Julia and Chloe are super motivating, have great humor, are very responsible yet flexible to everyones needs and truly inspiring human beings. Our hosts (and their pets) and the accomodation were also very very good. Los Clavos Surf camp and the beaches that surround it are heavenly. Thank ya'll so much!

Excellent endroit, dès notre arrivé à l’aeroport quelqu’un est venu nous chercher. Ambiance et activité excellente. Recommande fortement seul ou en groupe

Autant l'emplacement, que les activités et le staff sont partie intégrante de l'expérience qui est incroyable. J'y retournerais et surtout je ne serais jamais partie. J'ai eu la chance d'avoir Haley comme professeur, elle est dévoué et à l'écoute.
