About the Yoga Loft

The Yoga Loft at eXtreme Hotel is a beautiful open-layout yoga deck on Kite Beach in Cabarete, Dominican Republic. The space features a natural cana roof, gorgeous ocean views, lots of light and cool Caribbean breezes.

We offer beachfront yoga classes daily for travelers and the local community, but our specialty is yoga retreats, fitness holidays and sustainable tourism.

We host our own yoga retreats, and we also love it when teachers and studios bring their own groups. Come and share our slice of paradise.

Samara

Hello eXtreme Hotel! My name is Samara, I am a 25 year old Vermont native. I attended the University of Vermont where I fell in love with traveling. I worked with World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms (WWOOF) in Spain, Ireland and France during school where I studied Anthropology and French. After I graduated I moved to France for a year to teach English in local high schools. Yoga has always been a part of my life, but I didn’t become passionate about teaching until about a year ago. I have future plans to become a physician assistant, and yoga became a great way for me to learn more about my own body and discover the many ways in which healing and healthy living can occur. I am so grateful to be a part of the team and can’t wait to see you in class!
