The Frogs House - Yoga Retreat

I hosted a yoga retreat here, and was so happy with the support from the team, from the start to end. The most amazing location, to experience the French hill top village. the hikes and the area are a perfect location, to get both sea and mountain atmosphere. Ali and Benoit are such are such a clam and knowledgable team.

I had a wonderful view from the balcony in my room on the 4th floor facing the hills and the sea! Lovely staff, I felt very welcomed and taken care of. The program for the week was great with yoga classes, communication-workshop, cooking class, hiking and swimming, vineyard visit etc. Delicious vegan food that is included in the package (breakfast, lunch and dinner). Wine is also included for the most part. The terrace outside is beautiful, so nice to eat all meals there. It was a great week! A minor thing is that it would be nice if somebody from the staff was there when you arrive to ”check in”. Also often during dinners there are no staff there so it’s self service. But these are small issues, they didn’t bother that much and I think it is the philosophy of the place that the guests form a group and take care of the practical things together. We all got to know eachother well and had such a nice time together.

What a week I’ve had, it was everything I wanted and more. From the stunning train ride departing from Amsterdam all the way to the Côte d’Azur, to the daily yoga and meditation sessions guided by the talented Frogs House team. A big surprise were the non violent communication workshops, I was reluctant at first but now I just want to know more! Everything was taught with humor and no pressure to participate if it didn’t feel right to you, my kind of retreat. I met an amazing bunch of ladies from all over the world: Denmark, Norway, Germany, USA, Australia, UK and France, I haven’t laughed so much in a while, my stomach muscles got a true work out. Not to forget the hikes and views around Saint-Jeannet overlooking the French Riviera. It’s such a stunning area, and the little beautiful sleepy town really added to the experience. It was hard being in busy Nice again after that. We had a personal French chef making our daily meals, he also gave a cooking workshop so I have some recipes to try out at home. Oh and wine, loads of lovely local wines from a family run vinyard just down the road. I had the room in the cellar, but believe me it didn't feel like the cellar. Although I had the lowest room the view was still amazing! The room was clean, perfect for 1 person, with a great bathroom and super quiet at night. A true highlight was the chapel of Matisse in Vence, without Benoit’s knowledge about the history and build I don’t think I would have been so in awe. I’ve come away from this week feeling centered, inspired and looking forward to the months ahead. Thanks Frog's House! I’ll definitely be back!

The staff works together so beautifully and all take turns teaching you their practice throughout the week to create the perfect variations of yoga classes - all suiting to your needs and skill level. Fresh delicious food served for every meal and accompanied for all diets and requests. A great balance of yoga, breath work, exploring St. Jeannett and learning about French culture. I had the best week quieting and connecting my mind. Made it hard to leave! 💕

Just came back from a retreat at the FrogS House. At the end, I was very sad to say goodbye to the wonderful team, my fellow retreat goers, the lovely FrogS house, and the beautiful village of Saint Jeannet. I enjoyed the yoga classes, the outings, the cooking class when we cooked vegan & gluten-free, the communication workshops, the conversations at meal time, and last but not least, the delicious food prepared with love. There was an incredible amount of attention to my needs, I felt very well cared for. My room was comfortable and had a nice sea view; one morning I saw Corsica on the horizon as the sun was rising. This retreat was very special and left beautiful memories that will last for years to come. Thank you Benoît, Ali, Pily, Ronald, Claudia, Florence, and Jean!

The frog's house team really delivers a unique experience bringing the yogi spirit of presence, connection and fun to all what they do. I really enjoyed the yoga sessions with Pily and Benoit. I have never felt so relax and grounded. I was surprised about the NVC workshops. I found it really insightful. So much I am considering further looking into it and of a course in my country. The food, the surroundings, the city hopping and the people are the cherry on top. Thanks!

This visit to Frogs’ House, our third time, and 1st time participating in a couples’ themed week, was relaxing, rejuvenating, thought-provoking, and good exercise. We continue to experience interesting, fun people from other countries seeking a yoga experience while enjoying each other’s company and sharing our life stories. Highlights of this visit the 3rd week of September were: the communal dinners, including one we cooked together under the guidance of Chef Noel, an excellent cook and always entertaining gourmand; a hike to a nearby river for a mud bath, including a picnic, engagement around the discipline of Non-Violent Communication, focusing on needs and meeting these through effective communication; special yoga asanas designed for couples to do together; and a charades-type game involving acting out a scene for others to guess, which left all of us laughing hysterically. We came away, as always, feeling rested and more fully present, with new friends and acquaintances and the opportunity to enjoy the balanced perspective of Benoit and the Frost’ House team.

A perfekt start to somebody like me who has no Retreat experience. Various Yoga and breathing Technik will be exersised. The programm includes different Highlights but you still have enough time to reflekt and enjoy, solo or with the group. The wonderful nature and the pretty village offer an authentic scenery for this Retreat. Many thanks for the whole team for the great experience you make possible!

Amazing time with amazing people. Highly recommend for everyone 🤩. I made many friends on my week stay also leaned how to make some great french vegetarian dishes. Excellent non violent combination training! Great value of money.
