I have just returned from my annual gift to myself of a yoga retreat ( formenterayoga.com) at Gecko Beach, which is right on the beach. It just gets better every year. The management and staff are extremely accommodating and nothing seems to be too much trouble. The standard of cleanliness is second to none and the breakfast buffet is healthy... More

Gecko Beach Club was the perfect setting for the Formentera Yoga retreat led by Jax, the calm yet strong yoga 'guru'. The chic and stylish design of the hotel was a perfect backdrop for one of the most relaxing weeks I've had in a long time. I loved the simple yet elegant overall design of the hotel; from the patio... More

My 3rd time at formentara yoga with jax may and the experience just gets better and better. The yoga was life changing and so uplifting, I welcomed the challenge of 20 hrs of yoga, early morning walks, 10k trek around the island, seeing and learning about the plants herbs and beginnings of this beautiful island with our yoga group. Yoga... More

By far the best yoga retreat I've ever been to, the teaching from Jax was just unbelievably unlightening. All in all one of the most inspiring and recharging holiday I've ever had also thanks to the relaxed atmosphere and first class service offered by the gecko club

Jax is someone very rare and special. With a light touch and a deep spirituality, she teaches yoga with real integrity. She challenges without forcing and corrects without criticising, managing to both empower and nurture her clients. The result is inspirational, and the effects of her profound and careful teaching are long lasting. Gecko Beach Club is the only place... More

Just back from a 5-day yoga holiday at the fantastic Gecko Beach Club and cannot recommend it more highly. Beautiful location and views, extremely well appointed accommodation, incredibly friendly staff and delicious food. The resort itself is wonderfully relaxing, making it a great spot to unwind and recharge. It overlooks the beach and the views are spectacular. It's blissfully calm... More

We stayed at this beautiful, calm, lounge hotel with fantastic kitchen (former Michelin star cook from Morocco) end of May 2012. We had fantastic weather and the personel did an incredible job with our 2 year old little boy Fynn. They kept an eye on him when we were eating, provided us with babyphone so that we could enjoy a... More

I had a wonderful trip to Formentera earlier this year. My boyfriend and I travelled to Ibiza from London, and stayed there for the weekend, enjoying the early season on the party island for a couple of days before taking the quick ferry over to Formentera. It's such a beautiful island, so peaceful and restorative, with amazing beaches. I'd been... More

Second visit, still the place to stay in Formentera. Simple but good rooms, good breakfast, amazing pool. A couple of excellent additions since last summer - the kids' club has been extended in hours and activities yet still is very pleasantly informal. And the lunch menu with pizzas etc in the more active chiringuito is also very nice. They are... More
