Destination

  

La Ventana in  Baja California Sur is a small Mexican fishing village located on the Sea of Cortez just 35 minutes southeast of La Paz, Baja California and about 2 hrs north of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.

Recently declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, the Sea of Cortez (also known as the Gulf of Baja California) offers intense ocean-blue scenery and the stark contrast of arid desert landscapes. So abundant is the region' s natural beauty that the explorer Jacques Cousteau referred to it as the "world's aquarium."


In La Ventana, you'll be charmed by the beautiful views of the bay, the island Cerralvo and the scenic sierras, the variety of plants and cacti, the colors of water, and of course the warm friendliness of the Mexican people who live here.

Local activities range from watersports, snorkeling, kayaking, diving, fishing to just relaxing on the beach.

The closest town to your retreat, La Paz, has an old-world charm and pleasant local front promenade featuring international art and restaurants. 



Included excursion

CERRALVO ISLAND

Right in front of Casa Tara, across the water, is a 16-mile-long Virgin island of approximately 35,000,000 acres named Isla Cerralvo. The landscape features beautiful arid desert flora and a vast extension of coral reef that will astonish you. We can take you there on our panga to spend the day snorkeling, hiking or just having a fun picnic on the beach.

About your instructor

  

Britt Daniel.

Britt’s passion for wellness originally stemmed from a place of crisis. After struggling with physical and mental health issues in college, Britt took a gap year to live in Japan where he discovered meditation and yoga. Inspired by the Zen philosophy of mindfulness, Britt went through an enlightening transformation resulting in a love for thoughtful movement and holistic healing. One should synchronize their body and mind through meditation; Consciousness, exercise, and nutrition will increase your body awareness. After losing over 60 lbs during his stay in Japan, Britt came back to the United States rejuvenated, ready to share his love for wellness through a career in fitness. Over the years Britt has cultivated that passion and shared it with hundreds of people. Britt Daniels describes prophecy as the fusion of manifestation and vision. Through relentless effort and performance, we can all achieve our goals and optimize our health.

If you are thinking about this retreat, hesitate no more-book it! Lucia and Elena (owner and host) are great friendly hosts. They created carefully curated, enhanced experiences that were private for the group. Things were perfectly timed and I was always impressed by our activities and never bored. And they took great pictures so you can stay immersed in the experience and have photos. Audra (yoga instructor) led the group in thoughtful practice considering the diverse levels and needs of the group. The hotel Ponca was beautiful with its lush greenery, winding sandy walkways and canopied beds on a white sand beach. There was no shortage of good food and I’m a dairy free picky eater with some fruit allergies. The only downside I found with the hotel was that my room was next to an energy or water utility system that had a continuous pitch hum. I made the hotel aware and it didn’t seem they could offer a room change or discount on the room. I would stay in the same hotel again, just not that room. I loved the group and miss everyone! Overall an amazing experience that I’ll never forget.

Dear Stephanie Thank you so much for taking the time to review your retreat experience. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the time with us in Tulum and every part of the retreat; our aim is to create a full immersive experience from yoga to food and local culture and when we hear that people are able to enjoy all of that we feel very accomplished. We are sorry to hear about the room issue and that the hotel was not very cooperative, certainly something we will bear in mind when confirming our room allocation. Once again thank you so much for being one of our esteemed guests and we hope to see you again in one of our future retreats. With love and gratitude, The Mudra team

This trip was amazing! Lucia and Roberto were wonderful with pre-trip communication and travel arrangements. Once I arrived, Elana and the entire team made the trip one of a kind. The hotel is bohemian-chic and located in the Tulum State Park. The rooms are so wonderful! The retreat customized all the meals and each was more delicious than the last. I cannot say enough about this trip and I recommend it to anyone looking for a retreat to take by themselves or with friends. I will be going back!

I went to the retreat solo after a very difficult time in my life had left me feeling depleted and closed in. I left feeling more fully alive and with a heightened sense that life can be expansive and beautiful even in the wake of tragedy. Every aspect of the retreat seemed perfect to me: stunning location; authentic and intimate hotel; thoughtful activities; and warm and welcoming organizers, instructor, and guides. Oh, and scrumptious and healthy food too! I can’t recommend this retreat highly enough! 10/10!

I had a wonderful time on this yoga retreat. Audra was a fantastic yoga teacher for the body, mind and spirit. The locations of our classes were amazing. The two cenotes that we visited for yoga practice (private visits) were magical. The resort was very comfortable and right on a beautiful stretch of white sand beach that was great for long walks. The food was made to order and really good. Lucia and Elena, the organizers, were always there and making sure that everything was running smoothly. I would highly recommend this retreat.

AMAZINGGGGG!!! I can't even describe how beautiful and refreshing this retreat was. Exceeded my expectations many times over; I really didn't want to leave. Deserves more than 5 stars. The location was perfectly chosen in the national park on the Playa Paraiso.. absolutely Stunning views! this park is only open to hotel's guests and day tourists visiting the Mayan ruins. So it was very quiet, calm, no vendors walking the beach, no loud music. Extremely peaceful. The owners, Lucia, Roberto and our excellent host Elena did a fabulous job planning this program. Each yoga class was planned at different yet relaxing setting with gorgeous backgrounds sometimes with live mayan music performance. In between classes other activities were also planned that allowed us to explore the area, visit secluded cenotes where we were the only group. these activities included diving, zip lining, swimming and snorkeling in some jaw dropping locations. Our Yoga instructor, Audra was also fantastic. Such a kind loving soul. She had each class tailored to the needs and wants of the participants. I was lucky enough to even have a private session with her one of the days and she helped me explore some poses I never would have attempted. Each meal was carefully curated and planned for by Lucia and Elena. 3 meals a day, locally sourced ingredients, so fresh and delicious. it was satisfying every single time. All in all, Im beyond impressed with this retreat! It has left a giant lasting impression and I can't wait to go back. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to anyone looking to get away for some relaxing peaceful time and connecting with their mind body and soul. It will do you wonders. Thank you so much, Lucia, Elena, Roberto, Audra <3

I had an incredible time in Tulum with Mudra retreats. This was my first solo trip and did not know what to expect but our guides Lucia, Elena and Audra created an amazing environment which felt safe and comforting. I got to meet 6 amazing people each on their own journey and we all formed a tight bond. Yoga in the beautiful cenotes was truly a magical experience and the yoga classes in general were all tailored to each of our levels and needs. I highly recommend this retreat to anyone looking to expand their yoga practice and meditation skills but above all who are trying to connect with themselves.

What an absolutely wonderful experience with the Mudra team (Lucia and Elena) and our yoga guide, Audra, who guided us through an amazing 5 days of yoga, excursions, and general bliss. Couldn’t recommend this retreat more! I made some amazing friends, did yoga in magical denotes, and relaxed next to the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea.

Mudra Retreats have created a beautiful one of a kind experience with this retreat:) Lucia, Elena and Roberto were the kindest and most attentive organizers taking care of all the finest details! Could not beat the outings, the yoga sessions, the area of Tulum, the beaches, the group of friends we made, the "specialized" food for the GF allergy prone woman, and the Pocna resort. Would definitely recommend this yoga retreat (or anything from Mudra Retreats) in the future to anyone. This adventure was pure magic and exactly what I needed to reset this year in life! I will definitely be going on another adventure with Mudra Retreats in the future and would recommend them to anyone and everyone!
