The closest airport is Malaga Airport and Santilan can organise local taxis to pick you up for approximately €60. If students land within half an hour of each other they will group you into shared taxis.

Uber and Cabify also operate if you prefer to use that. To and from Malaga city centre in a local taxi is €45.

Climate

Andalucía is the warmest region of Spain, and the local area boasts the highest level of warm sunlight hours in all of Europe. The Costa del Sol climate is Mediterranean with mild winters, due to its geographic situation, protected from cold winds to the north by the Tejeda, Almijara and Alhama Mountain ranges, and the warm Mediterranean Sea to the south.

The coastal area’s climate is exceptional. In 2024 we had highs of 22 and lows of 12º C with sunshine all day. This is not guaranteed however but is typical.

Clothing

In December it can be cool, sometimes cold, in the evenings, at night and early mornings, so a fleece top, a warm sweater or a woolly jumper, a warm shawl, warm pyjamas and warm socks might be needed. It hardly ever rains in December, but check the forecast before you leave home.

It is a condition of booking at Santillan that you take out full travel insurance to cover cancellation, travel costs and other eventualities.

Below are the Terms & Conditions for in-person retreats & workshops organised by Keen on Yoga.  Where an event is hosted by another centre it will be subject to the centre’s terms and conditions.

Payments

Full payment must be made before the workshop/retreat begins to attend. Where applicable, you can reserve your place by making a deposit payment of the amount stated on the event page. 

The balance payment is due no later than 8 weeks before the first day of the yoga event you’ve reserved. In most cases once the deposit is received we will set up for the second payment to be taken 8 weeks before the event.

Payments are made through our secure website with a credit card. If you are unable to make your payment this way, send us an email so we can provide our bank transfer details.

Cancellation by Student

Below is the amount of refund we can offer if you need to cancel your booking.  Where there is a refund offered there will be a 10% admin fee deducted which includes our loss due to the card transaction processing fee. All cancellations must be made in writing by emailing info@keenonyoga.com. The date that we receive your email will be the date that we calculate your refund.

Deposit Payments: All deposits are non-refundable and non-transferable.

Full Payments: If you have paid in full and must cancel, the following applies:

• More than 8 weeks before the start of the course or workshop: 100% refund less deposit.
• 4 to 8 weeks before the start of the course or workshop: 50% refund less the deposit.
• Up to 4 weeks before the start of the course or workshop: No refund will be given.

Unfortunately, we cannot be responsible for refunding any other costs incurred, i.e. your travel. 

Cancellation by Us

We reserve the right to make any changes to our programme. If Keen on Yoga / we / Adam Keen needs to cancel the retreat due to situations outside our control alternative arrangements will be offered to the best of our ability. However if not accepted, we do not accept responsibility for any costs incurred, including airfare.

If we offer a discount to some students or last-minute discount prices, this does not affect the status of any students who have previously paid full price, and no discount will then become due to them. Students who have paid for a single room do not qualify for a discount in the case that another student happens to be alone in a “shared” room.

All students are strongly recommended to have travel insurance to cover any loss or injury, including repatriation if necessary.

If you are on medication, are currently under therapy and/or counselling, or have any known mental or emotional condition(s) that would in any way hinder your participation in a yoga course, please let us know before registering. We do not provide any specialists at our retreats who would be able to help, should the need arise.

If your behaviour causes disruption for other participants and the teachers, you will be asked to stop participating in the course and to seek appropriate help. In such a situation, we do not offer refunds but can provide documents for insurance claims.
