4/10

we really had a nice time at Samana Chakra but ultimately our experience was more akin to renting a room, rather than being at a hotel or retreat. The prices really didn’t have much bearing on the services and facilities which we received or were led to expect, sadly. We have stayed at a lot of hotels and retreats worldwide, and appreciate that they vary from country to country, but there is a basic level of service that we have come to expect for our outlay, and Samana Chakra sadly didn't live up.

-no yoga!(teacher sick, no replacement offered)
-no hot water on first day
-the first day massages were 45mins not 1 hour as billed
-no poolside refreshments offered
-mowing and strimming going on literally right next to us even during a ‘relaxing’ sunset (despite having all day to do this when we weren’t around!)
-whilst good, the food was overpriced by a large factor relative to other local restaurants of similar standard

this is all ok in some circumstances, but when you weigh up that we were initially billed close to $1000 for two nights (including transfers from Piura), you may want to look for better value for money.
