Yogis,
people who practice yoga, come in all shapes and sizes. Contrary to stereotypes, not all practitioners eat vegetarian and eschew the luxuries of life. They’re much more likely to be “Lohas,” a relatively freshly minted group of individuals that enjoy "lifestyles of health and sustainability." Some have no problem dropping thousands of dollars on a decadent suite, while others have a tighter budget. Our list of yoga retreats runs from small, inexpensive desert escapes to the ultimate luxury in ecotourism. You may find yourself waking up with howler monkeys in Costa Rica's rainforest or luxuriating king-size in the Rocky Mountains. So grab your mat and start planning your perfect yoga escape.

Beach, Ibiza
Ibiza Yoga

Believe
it or not, on the northwest coast of Europe's infamous
party island is a quiet corner where people practice
Ashtanga-based yoga, enjoy an oasis of calm tranquility,
eat vegetarian meals and “find themselves”
rather than a person to, er, dance with. The accommodations
of Villa Roca, Villa Palmas, Benirras Beach Apartment
and the Pagoda Garden are tasteful and pretty in an
earthy way, and you cannot beat the sunsets. Leave your
Gucci mat at home and count on making the acquaintance
of bongo-playing hippies and fire eaters.
