Jamboree Creek Yoga is ideally located near the beautiful Ashvem and Mandrem beaches, lush landscaping, a place to relax with sumptuous food. They offer the perfect base to explore the stunning beaches of North Goa and to have a true experience of natural living close to peace, yoga, and trees. They are passionate about growing healthy food and bringing people together in meaningful ways to learn and live closer to the land.

Cottages, made of pinewood, have been designed in collaboration with a Dutch and Indian duo (Simrit and Ridha) who are permaculture designers and architects, which are nestled in a serene and lush green location. You will experience their unique open to air showers with mud and oxide walls in the bath perfect for sunbathing and moon gazing. A French-designed swimming pool and a “green” creekside by the pool is a perfect and serene place to spend the starry evenings.

Ashvem beach is a virgin, local beach, located away from the hustle and bustle of beaches like Anjuna or Baga. It is very serene, quiet and in a perfect location for people who want to get away from the routine of everyday life. When in the mood for solitude, head to Ashvem beach, only a five minutes walk from the resort through a private bridge. This is the perfect place for quiet moments. Ashvem is also a nesting ground for the endangered Olive Ridley Turtle. Early morning dolphin-spotting boats sail from here, which can be organized by them on request.
