Tulum · Mexico
A six-day yoga & wellness retreat in the jungle of Tulum, hosted by Angie Lo & Brenda Wowk
Welcome
Life moves quickly.
Between work, family, and the constant pull of everyday demands, it's easy to forget what it feels like to simply breathe.
This retreat was created as an invitation — to slow down, to reconnect with your body, with nature, and with what truly matters. For six beautiful days, home will be a luxury boutique wellness sanctuary hidden in the jungle of Mexico's Caribbean coast of Tulum, with its own private cenote flowing through the property.
You'll practice yoga as the jungle wakes around you, float down ancient canals, share long unhurried meals, and rediscover the kind of rest that stays with you long after you return home.
Whether you're travelling with a friend or on your own, you'll be welcomed into a small, supportive community where everyone belongs.
Designed for Restoration
This retreat was built as a recovery system — five pillars woven into every day, so you leave with something you can keep.
Cenote resets. Cool down. Return to baseline.
Daily practice — mobility, strength, and flow.
Curated frequencies via Mother Nature herself, and music-led moments that shift the room.
Quiet design. Protected nights. Deeper rest.
Clean flavour, steady energy — meals that support tomorrow.
The Experience
Morning and evening practices for all levels, on an open-air deck surrounded by jungle.
Swim and float in our own crystal-clear natural cenote, steps from your room — plus a traditional detoxifying sweat lodge experience.
Fresh, organic, locally sourced meals — vegetarian, vegan & gluten-free friendly.
Boat across a UNESCO biosphere, float ancient Maya canals, then a lagoon afternoon at Sipalitos.
Just 10 rooms. Real connection and community — never a crowd.
Free time every day — for the pools, the spa, the hammock, or exploring Tulum.

Daily Rhythm
Movement in the morning. Freedom in the afternoon. Connection in the evening.
A sample day — the final schedule will be shared with all guests before the retreat.
Your Home in the Jungle
A sanctuary purpose-built for retreats. Organic architecture curves around the trees, woven natural materials filter the light, and at the heart of the property flows a private cenote, sacred to this land for thousands of years.
What's a cenote? A natural freshwater pool formed where the Yucatán's limestone opens to the crystal-clear groundwater below. Thousands dot the peninsula — the Maya held them sacred — and we have our own.

Included Excursion · Sian Ka'an
One day, we'll trade the jungle for the water: a boat journey across the Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve — a UNESCO World Heritage site — followed by a gentle float down crystal-clear canals hand-built by the Maya more than a thousand years ago. Just you, the current, and open sky.
Then the afternoon is yours at Sipalitos, a laid-back hangout on a freshwater lagoon with a waterside restaurant and a dock made for doing absolutely nothing. We leave after breakfast and return in time for dinner together.
Included in your retreatLagoon lunch, bar drinks & spa extras at your own expense.
A Signature Afternoon · Included
One late afternoon, as the heat softens and the light turns gold, we'll gather at the stone temazcal for an ancient Maya ritual of heat, breath, and release. Inside the heated dome, herb-infused water meets volcanic rock as a local practitioner guides intention-setting, chanting, and quiet reflection. We finish in the early evening, in time for dinner together.
Because the ceremony is best entered on a light stomach, lunch that day is intentionally replaced with fresh fruit plates and coconut water, served before and after. You'll be well hydrated and comfortable going in — and we'll gather for a full dinner together afterward.
When the ceremony ends, you'll step out into the night air and slip straight into the fresh water of the private cenote, just steps away. It's the kind of experience people travel across the world for — and it happens right where we're staying.
