This October, join me for Ladyvana at the stunning Club de Patos in the Yucatán — a soulful, seaside retreat for women ready to reconnect, recharge, and rise. Nestled on a quiet stretch of beach, Club de Patos offers the perfect blend of barefoot luxury and wild nature. Together, we’ll gather for yoga, ocean swims, deep conversations, nourishing meals, and sacred rest, along with two excursions rooted in nature, art and Mayan wisdom. With over 15 years of retreat-leading experience, I’ve designed this journey to help you come home to yourself. Ladyvana always sells out — don’t miss your chance to be part of this magic.

Club de Patos is located on a quiet, untouched stretch of coastline in the Yucatán Peninsula. The closest airport is Manuel Crescencio Rejón International Airport (MID) in Mérida, Mexico — just a 45-minute drive from the retreat property. You can fly directly into Mérida from several major cities, or connect easily through Mexico City, Houston, or Miami. Once you arrive, we can help arrange group transportation or recommend trusted taxi services to bring you straight to paradise.

*If you want to come in a few days earlier, let me know and I can provide a code for a discounted stay. Early arrivals / late stays are responsible for the payment of their own airport transport.
