After years lurking on Trip Advisor without writing any reviews myself, my recent week at the Island Experience has compelled me to stop being a lurker and sing its praises. I can’t remember the last time I felt so peaceful and healthy – and I can’t remember ever going on a vacation that felt so much like home. First of... More

Daily life is fast complicated and stressful. So sometimes we need to get away to get things done, mostly things we need to do for ourselves, thats what I did with the Island Experience in Patagonia Argentina. It was like traveling with fiends, organised , fun but tough. From the hikes to the food to the yoga everything was special.... More

This is a good experience for someone who is looking for a reset on your exercise program, an Ayurvedic detox diet and a beautiful island to play on. The exercise is optional, but it may not be presented as optional at times. Just do what you want and feel comfortable with doing. The kayaking is ocean kayaking with moderate currents,... More

Highly recommend the Island Experience - the location is just beautiful - Ilha Grande is an incredibly beautiful and natural environment - totally unspoilt still - not often you find this! The accommodation was really comfortable and I was lulled to sleep by the sound of the ocean which is about as relaxing as you get! Plenty of activities everyday... More

have a massage or a trip like this again (unless you go back). I've been to Ilha Grande in 2010 and then the Costa Rica experience in 2011. I can't say enough positive things about Paola, Daniel, Adrianna and Martin. They are amazing hosts and guides - and the food is fantastic. There is something very special about Ilha Grande... More

It isn't often when your expectations can be exceeded but that was truly the case at TIE. I came to relax, contemplate, gain strength and open myself to new adventure. I achieved all that and more. Adriana and Martin, along with their whole island team, are the most wonderful hosts and I left feeling like family. Their attention is personal... More

A stay at the Island experience is highly recommended, we came with expectations of yoga and some hiking, we also expected to relax and we did. The professionalism, enthusiasm and knowledge is beyond what I have experienced so far :-) . We were met by excellent yoga program, great food, adventures hikes, clear water kayaking, relaxing time in the hot... More

More fantabulous than I could imagine! I came to TIE for the location, adventure and activities. As a mostly meat-atarian, non-yogi I was concerned about the food & yoga aspects. The staff there was so helpful and encouraging I was blown away! They introduced me to a whole new world of health that completely amazed me. It was such a... More

A week attending the Yoga Program in Ihla Grande was superb! Covering needs of relaxation, inspiration, learning, mindfulness and pure joy. Great facilities, and even better: People running the place and program that really seem to care about their work, The Planet and the people attending the program. We had a terrific week exploring the Island, with the rain forest... More
