Why it's a Positive Escape
A yoga retreat in Kuta Lombok with a fully vegetarian kitchen, on-site water recycling, and accommodation from a mixed dorm to a private villa.
Mana opened in Kuta Lombok in 2015 as Mana Yoga Retreat and rebranded to Mana Eco Retreat in 2022, a short walk from Kuta Beach.
The restaurant is fully vegetarian and vegan, cooks only with coconut oil sourced in Lombok, and works mostly from local farms. One hundred solar panels supply the electricity, surplus goes back to the public grid. Six 'Biosafe' septic tanks recycle wastewater from showers, laundry and the kitchen into irrigation water.
Mana funds two community programmes in Kuta: the SLCA Kuta Bin Project which provides about 200 green bins across town and monthly beach cleanups, and a stray-dog sterilisation initiative.
Sustainability in action
Community
Local staff
all staff hired locally
Kuta Lombok Dogs
financial support for the local stray-dog sterilisation programme
Energy
100 solar panels with grid feed-in
supply the property's daily electricity, surplus is sent back to the public grid for the surrounding community
Water
Six 'Biosafe' septic tanks
each with four oxygenated chambers combined with grease traps, recycle wastewater from showers, laundry and the kitchen into irrigation water
Free filtered drinking water on tap
refill stations across the property replace single-use plastic bottles
Food
Fully vegetarian and vegan restaurant
no meat on the menu, produce sourced locally and where possible organically
No palm oil
the kitchen cooks with coconut oil only, sourced from local Lombok producers, chosen because palm-oil farming drives rainforest loss in Sumatra and Borneo
Waste
SLCA Kuta Bin Project
Mana funds about 200 green bins across Kuta town and the surrounding beaches, plus monthly cleanups run with the South Lombok Community Association
Materials & Construction
Tree preservation during construction
the property was built around the existing trees on the plot, and at least two trees replanted for every tree removed
Travel mindfully
Cabanas have air conditioning. Use it sparingly: the property runs on 100 solar panels and surplus electricity goes back to the public grid.
