Yoga Oasis - VegetariansAbroad.com is a Holiday and Travel Directory putting Vegetarians and Vegans in touch with the Hotels, Guest Houses, and Restaurants that cater for them

Yoga Oasis is on the Big Island of Hawaii, in the Puna district. This is a retreat center to get away from it all, and we are away from it all!

We are a secluded and private sanctuary, off the beaten path, nestled on 26 acres of lush rain forest. We are surrounded by coconut palms, papaya, banana, mango, avocado and macadamia nut trees and a vast array of colorful, fragrant flowering plants. Sun, occasional rain showers and a range from a perfect 60 to 80 degrees year round....

The facilities include: an expansive 1,600 square foot workshop space with 18 foot high pine beam ceilings, studio quality sound system, and a state of the art "spring" floor. Two open walls are screened with fantastic views into the jungle. We offer yoga classes and private bodywork therapy sessions and can accommodate individuals or groups. Our rates range from $75 and up. Yoga Oasis is also available to outside groups who would like to conduct their own retreats and workshops. We offer discounts for groups of 10 or more.

We have an organic fruit orchard and garden which we draw from to create our sumptuous vegetarian cuisine.

We are a short drive to natural thermal hot springs, sauna steam caves, a black sand beach, surfing, snorkelling, Lava Tree State Park, hiking to Green Mountain and Green Lake, and we reside in Hawaii's largest conservation area. We are 45 minutes from Hilo, and Hawaii Volcanos National Park, home of Kilauea, an active volcano that continues to add new land to the Big Island. Mostly undeveloped and untouristed, the Big Island of Hawaii still retains the rich atmosphere of old Hawaii.
