Yoga Holiday FAQ

Immigration

You will be asked to complete a landing/departure card which you will need to show at immigration with your passport once you get off the plane. Please note the following on the card if asked the following: • Reason of visit: Tourist/Holiday (*note do not mention you are attending a Yoga Holiday as they will ask too many questions so easier to say ‘tourist on holiday’).

Address to note: Bingin Mimpi Villa, Bingin Beach, 80361

Transfer

You will have a private airport transfer and your driver will be waiting for you at arrivals with a sign with your name on it so please look out for it. Please be sure to let us know of your confirmed flight details beforehand.

Brunch and Dinner will be provided at the villa. A typical breakfast will include your choice of eggs, fruit, pancakes, tea or coffee and juice. Extras can be provided on request! Snacks of fruit juice, tea, coffee and water will be provided at the villa throughout the day.

A two course dinner will be provided by our chef at the villa each night and this will typically consist of a traditional indonesian main and side dishes of vegetables and rice and fruit. We will organise a dinner out at a local restaurant as part of the total package. You are welcome to bring any additional snacks and store food in the fridge provided there is space. There are a few small shops and restaurants nearby should you want anything extra.

There will be a mixture of vegetarian and non veggie options and Indonesian and Western cooking available (and nice coffee) to ensure all of your needs are met!Some typical dinner options include the following:

  • Marinated chicken satay with peanut sauce and rice
  • Spicy asian salad with vermicelli noodles, mixed greens, tomato, carrot, mint, coriander, roasted cashews and spicy asian salad dressing
  • Pumpkin, tofu and cashew curry with rice
  • Nasi Goreng with brown rice, tempeh, egg and sauteed veggies
  • Vegetable cap cay (vegetable stir fry)
  • Buddha bowl - mixture of brown rice, vegetables, avocado and hummus

Yoga

It is recommended that you bring your own mat and any other equipment that you need. Airlines usually allow you to carry your Yoga mat as additional hand luggage as well as having a carry-on bag if you cannot fit the mat into your checked-in suitcase. Should you wish, we can provide this for you for the following prices:

  • Mat: £15
  • Block: £10
Please contact Melody to confirm your requests. Due to the heat, a blanket is probably not going to be required but we would recommend bringing a sarong to class if you want some extra padding or something to cover up with during Shavasana.

Will my top shrink?

Please allow for some shrinkage, as long as you follow the care instructions on the care label then shrinkage should be minimal. However bamboo fabric will shrink slightly more than a top made from 100% cotton. We have tried to cut the fabric to allow for this slight change.
