      Garuda VIP Nest

      The Garuda’s Nest is our most spectacular cabin, built high on a tower with expansive views of the ocean and jungle canopy. Because it’s so high, it sways a bit like a treehouse when the wind blows or people walk around in it. So don’t book the Garuda’s Nest if you find that idea unnerving or you’re afraid of heights. This one is for our most adventurous guests only. This cabin has two single beds in the main room, or the option of a king size bed, and there’s an additional queen bed in the loft above.

      Jungle Cabina (No Couples Allowed)

      The Jungle Cabina, or jungle room as we sometimes call it, is our favorite, even though it doesn’t have the ocean views. It’s one of the largest cabinas and the design, decor, and lighting are all very unique and beautiful. But what really makes it stand out is that the bedroom section is build high above a steep slope, making you feel like you’re in a treehouse high up in the jungle canopy. This section has three walls of glass to really connect you with the outside. Even if you’re not staying here, be sure to come check it out because it’s amazing.

      I’m not sure where to start- my husband and I have been wanting to go on a retreat for a while now, but the stars were not aligning with our schedules. We finally had the opportunity to go on the paddle boarding adventure retreat, and it was well worth the wait! We had the best time. There was a great mix of people, and everyone meshed so well. We made new friends, and were able to have some time away catching up with friends that lived in the area during our free afternoon/evening. My husband and I had the most relaxing time, and it was a lot of fun connecting with him in a different way with a new experience. He even flew during the Acro Yoga workshop (😂IYKYK)!! Trenna and Katie did a fabulous job of hosting and organizing. Everything was so well balanced. Our room was well worth the price, and the food was delicious. This will not be our last retreat! We were so relaxed and had a wonderful time. Until next time- Veronica & Nate (AKA Big Tuna)

      Oh My Goodness - how do I even begin, this retreat was exactly what I needed! It was an absolutely amazing, wonderful experience! We were very active but still had chill time! Everything was well organized, events went smoothly, food was delicious! AND THE BEST PART was the amazing new friends I made. I will definitely be a repeat retreater ❤️
      By Tina G for Adventure Paddleboard + Yoga Retreat on Apr 19, 2024
      Fantastic experience. Very professional and well planned by Trenna and Katie. Met every expectation I had and more. The food prepared by chef Nellie was delicious. The acroyoga and sunrise yoga classes led by Mady were awesome. The paddleboard experience was absolutely amazing. The trip had the perfect mix of a scheduled itinerary and free time to explore. Enjoyed every minute of this retreat. Can't wait to experience another!

      It was a perfect blend of coordinated events and free time to explore or relax. The season and location was perfect, especially for the diffrrent themed Element of the day. The resort chosen was professional, inviting, clean, and promptly took care of any requests made. Travel plans and anxiety was quickly brought to ease due to B&B's "no man left behind" attitude that was demonstrated by their constant transparency, communication, and availability. The whole experience made you feel like home away from home and a unique experience that will always be remembered. We arrived as strangers but left as family ❤️ Highly recommend!

      I went along on the B&B Dominican Treehouse retreat and I am SO happy I went. The place was truly magical, and it was amazing being able to disconnect from every day life, to reconnect with nature. This trip was very well organized and loaded with adventures that you had the opportunity to participate in or you could sit back and do your own thing which is so great to have the option. Any questions I had were quickly answered and everyone involved was so helpful. The planning of the trip was seamless. I experienced so many amazing things while on this trip, that I will never forget. I had one of the best times of my life being able to meet new people and make connections. Everyone on this trip was so warm and welcoming and helpful. I don’t think I will ever meet a better group of people than the ones I met on this trip! Highly recommend going on a retreat with B&B! Plus, they give you great swag bags!

      The Dominican Treehouse was my first B&B retreat, and will not be my last! This place was magical! It’s clear that Trenna has a true passion for traveling to special places and put so much thought into making the retreat special for everyone. I am still processing all that this experience has given me and will cherish it forever. Anyone who has the means and desire to do a retreat but nervous to go alone, DO IT! There were a few of us who traveled alone and didn’t know anyone before the trip and I’m sure they feel the same after this retreat with Trenna and her B&B teachers. Thank you for sharing your passion to make this happen!

      It’s hard to even find words for how incredible my trip to the Dominican Republic, with Breath and Bend Retreats was. They made it effortless on my end and everything was very organized. It was the perfect mixture of health, healing and relaxation along with FUN and adventure. The itinerary was perfectly planned but you didn’t feel obligated to do any of it if you didn’t want to. The swag bag was the cherry on top and very nice! The vibe from every single person was incredible and everyone was so kind. I went in knowing NO ONE and left feeling like I connected with everyone. I hope I can go on every retreat with them in the future.
