COME TO STAY
A LITTLE BIT IN, OR ALL IN?
How our pricing works.
Let's be clear. We are not a hotel.
Yoke is a soulful, social retreat space that's about people and community - a place where guests can build meaningful experiences together. It's like a short-term co-live! Come on your own, in a couple, or even as a small group.
Our new bespoke venue is a boutique, intimate location hosting 12 beautiful bedrooms (holding up to 28 guests totally) in a mix of Portuguese villa-style cottages and wooden jungle cabins, all dotted along the walkway up to our magical centrepiece shala and jungle cafe. We're tucked away in a lush tropical, palm fringed paradise tucked under the jungle canopy and soundtracked by the Arabian Sea, just a 1 minute walk away.
All rooms are en-suite with boho decor, super-quiet fans, and a palm-fringed balcony for every room. We have three room types - our stone cottages for a boutique solo or couple stay, our jungle cottages for or nomads looking for a great deal and shared experience, and our brand new studio suites for an upleveled experience that still offers soft, organic feels and nature's touch.
We've designed and styled all our rooms for comfort and beautiful energetics - it's a soft design upgrade from a lot of the more stark cottages in the area, and we've made sure the attention to detail is there in our choice of artwork, toiletries, textures and fragrances. We steer away from plastics, work with local suppliers, and celebrate nature and handmade pieces over mass-production and glossy aesthetics.
Yoke Goa is a 1 minute walk from the pristine white sands of Agonda’s famous turtle beach and a couple of minutes stroll from an array of wonderful restaurants. We are located a 12 minute rickshaw or scooter ride to indie Patnem and buzzy Palolem, with waterfalls, wildlife sanctuaries, beach-cruising boat trips, architectural tours and more all within easy reach.
We are an adult only, cat loving venue, designed for people looking for sanctuary. We are definitely not a party venue.
Whilst some occasional events are specifically offered for children when accompanied by parents, we maintain a site where sound is of paramount importance and for this reason we are not able to accommodate residential guests under 18, or any dogs.
We respectfully ask all guests to please support the peace by honouring our zen sound policy and avoiding playing music at a volume that may disturb others.

A FEW HOUSE RULES
MINIMUM STAY
MINIMUM STAY is 3 NIGHTS DURING LOW SEASON, 7 NIGHTS DURING HIGH SEASON. Amendments to this are at management discretion only.
BOOKING TERMS
A 50% deposit is due at point of booking to confirm your stay.
Deposit is returnable if you cancel more than 14 days before your arrival date. If you cancel 7-14 days before arrival date, we will return half your deposit. If you cancel less than 7 days before arrival, you will lose your deposit.
CLASS & ACTIVITY DISCLAIMER
Whilst we strive to ensure that all classes and activities run consistently, sometime things are beyond our control. People are off sick, travel plans change, power supply can be inconsistent. It's India - we kindly suggest that you go with the flow! We do not offer refunds or discounts on accommodation/retreat stays if a class is unavailable for any reason, and we always do our best to deliver our shala schedule and activities as advertised.
OCCUPANCY
Please ensure that you book the correct occupancy. If you book for single occupancy and are found to have two people staying in a bed, the balance for double occupancy will be charged.
GROUPS
We welcome small travel groups of up to 4, otherwise groups can only be accepted as a privately hired retreat.
INCLUSIVITY
We are a fully inclusive site, all humans are welcome regardless of nationality, race, religion, marital status or any other parameter. We take infringements against inclusivity very seriously and will not tolerate any abuse of freedoms on our site, from any team member, guest or visitor.
AGE LIMIT
Our accommodation is ADULT ONLY (18+).
The site is intended as a place for peaceful reflection and study, and therefore we do maintain it as adult only. Thanks for understanding that we cannot make exceptions.
ANIMAL & WILDLIFE POLICY
We are a micro-cat sanctuary so to preserve peace for our resident animals (and encourage quieter space for sound sessions and spa experiences) we are not able to have dogs onsite at any time. Please do not allow beach dogs to follow you into the site.
We are in the tropics and therefore insects and wildlife are part of the experience. Whilst we strive to maintain a high level of comfort in our rooms, we cannot control nature! We have various natural mosquito repellents and take steps during 'mosquito hour' to keep the site as comfortable as possible for you. Please use our refrigerators and cupboards in the kitchen for any food storage - keeping food in your room is not advised and Yoke will not be held responsible for any situations that arise as a result of doing so.
As an animal-loving site, we only use humane repellants, materials and traps.
SMOKING & ALCOHOL
Our site is non-smoking.
We are happy for you to bring alcohol to your room if you like, but please remember that the vibe of Yoke is relaxed retreat rather than party! We are not licensed to sell alcohol onsite.
LEGAL DISCLAIMER
Laws apply inside Yoke just as they do outside, please abide by local and national laws in general, and while staying with us.
