Yoga retreat volunteer Tenerife – long-stay exchange with Bliss Yoga Retreats

We came across this yoga retreat volunteer Tenerife opportunity in our Facebook group and thought it would interest readers planning a longer stay in the Canary Islands. Bliss Yoga Retreats is inviting two or more long-term volunteers (minimum one month) to join their base in South Tenerife starting this September. The exchange is simple: lend a steady hand to keep the retreat running, and in return you’ll have a bed, meals and access to the retreat program.

What the project is

Bliss Yoga Retreats hosts small, friendly retreats with yoga, movement and down-to-earth community time. Volunteers live on site and help the resident team before, during and after retreat days. Typical help includes welcoming guests, keeping shared spaces clean and calm, lending a hand around the kitchen, and being present when sessions start or finish so everything flows. On quieter moments, you’ll fold into the rhythm of the place – stretching on the grass, sharing meals and catching the trade winds that roll through the south of the island.

Exchange & conditions

The host provides meals, cosy accommodation in the retreat house and free participation in the retreat schedule when your help isn’t needed.

The host asks for a minimum stay of one month and a consistent, reliable presence throughout the week. English is the day-to-day language at the retreat. No specific age requirement is stated; adults able to live communally and follow a simple routine are most suitable. If you have previous hospitality, housekeeping or yoga-studio experience, mention it (fit matters more than a long CV).

Location

The retreat sits in Tenerife South, a sunny part of the Canary Islands (Spain) with volcano views, palm gardens and year-round warm weather. Beaches and coastal paths are close; buses connect you to the rest of the island on rest days.

Timeframe

Placements begin from September and can roll forward by agreement with the host.

If you are already on the island, note your availability in the message; otherwise, add a realistic arrival date.
