  Working with Santosah Retreats in Costa Rica was an unforgettable experience. Set at Nereus Retreat Center on the Osa Peninsula, Amanda Tevelino’s Untamed 2024 Yoga Retreat blended soulful yoga, nourishing cuisine, breathtaking scenery, and exhilarating outdoor adventures. It was the perfect balance of nature, renewal, and heartfelt community—an experience that was both a privilege to photograph and deeply fulfilling to be a part of.

  I went on my first yoga retreat to Costa Rica. I barely knew anyone who was going, but Amanda and Julie made sure I was welcome and comfortable. I left with 15 new friends and the memories of a lifetime. Yoga twice a day was extremely nice for me, even though I'm new to yoga. The excursions that were offered were private for the group and absolutely amazing. Jennifer and Amanda where the the entire time to make everything seem effortless and simple. If you're looking for a retreat to recharge, refill, and grow...this is the group to do it.

  I went with Amanda and Santosha to Nepal in October of 2022. It was a life-changing journey where I made lifelong connections with incredible people and had time to process a transition in my own life. I will never forget the evening that we practiced pranayama overlooking Mount Everest after an optional day-long hiking trip. While we practiced, the sun set the mountains ablaze with the most vivid orange. I wouldn’t have believed that the photos weren’t edited, if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes. The hike was magical, we had deep conversations while being continually astounded by nature’s splendor and the incredible and ancient man-made creations in this remote and inaccessible part of the world. As a group, we supported one another through personal growth and shared joy in each other’s goals and accomplishments, enjoyed exquisite meals, and laughed so much. We had formed a family before the end of our journey together, each of whom I will hold in my heart forever. The people of Nepal were incredible and witnessing the purity with which they embark on projects to better the lives of others, with so few resources of their own, has changed my perspective, revealing such a raw and naturally beautiful side of humanity. The devout love shared by the Nepali people was extended to us throughout our journey, in private homes and farms, through their incredible art (singing bowls, hand carved wooden statues, native jewelry), and in their abundant and joy-filled manner. I can’t wait to join Amanda on another journey in the near future and recommend Santosha’s programs with a full heart. Thank you Amanda, Santosha, and so much love to everyone with whom I shared that remarkable journey. 🩷

  Wow. IMMERSE Yoga Retreat in Amorgos, Greece was incredible! This forgotten island is a vortex of healing energy and their strong connection to their roots and nature was palpable. The five star hotel and spa was top tier amazing! The rooms were luxurious and the outdoor infinity pool overlooking the bay was jaw dropping. The food was elevated healthy, traditional Mediterranean buffet with bountiful options. I fell in love with their wild crafted sage tea and local thyme honey. The variety of yoga classes were insightful, inspiring, and exactly what my body needed every day. We were offered the perfect mix of active options, exploring, and relaxing downtime. At the end of the retreat I felt rejuvenated, inspired and at peace. Thank you Amazing Amanda for this incredible gift.

  Immerse 2023 Greece trip was simply magically! Amanda curated an amazing experience… each day having a theme that celebrated the Greek Goddesses! Amanda has a gift of cultivating connections while creation space for others to co-create with her! She’s truly a special being and I highly recommend any event/retreat offerings from Santosha! Thank you for such an incredible experience. Sat Nam ~ Leslie
