About this trip


Do you need to recharge your batteries and refresh your soul?


This trip is for you!


Join Whole-Hearted Adventure Travel and Experience Puerto Vallarta on a Luxury Wellness Retreat!


This year's retreat will take place at the beautiful Hacienda San Angel perched on a hilltop above the renowned Guadalupe Church in the center of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.  Nestled high above the narrow cobblestone streets overlooking the city and the ocean, it is one of the world’s most elegant and unique boutique luxury hotels you will ever visit.


Intimate and sophisticated, Hacienda San Angel’s eleven luxurious suites offer breathtaking views of the world-famous Banderas Bay to the west, the Sierra Madre mountain range to the east and the terra cotta rooftops of the charming city all around. 


Gardens lush with fragrant flowers, tropical foliage and trickling fountains meander through this unique setting. Three pools, a roof-top restaurant, massage services and fresh, delicious meals from locally sourced food add to this deluxe escape. 


Everything is planned out for your perfect getaway from the moment you step out of the Puerto Vallarta airport; luxury accommodations, excursions, all of your meals, a massage, and Christ-Centered yoga are included!  All you have to do is pack your bags and book your flight.  Our goal is for you to return home inspired and refreshed.

A Glamorous History

 

A past filled with glamour and romance has led to a present brimming with intimate sophistication at Hacienda San Angel.


The late Richard Burton purchased the Hacienda’s main villa as a Valentine’s Day gift for his wife, Susan in 1977, after falling in love with Puerto Vallarta as he filmed John Huston’s The Night of the Iguana there in the mid 1960’s. The cult classic film put Puerto Vallarta on the map as a favorite vacation spot for the international glitterati, including Burton’s ex, Elizabeth Taylor, who owned a house mere blocks away from Susan’s. The Burton’s aptly named their home, Casa Bur-Sus.


In 1990, entrepreneur Janice Chatterton purchased Casa Bur-Sus from Susan Burton to use as a vacation home. Following the loss of her son, Chatterton poured her grief into nurturing her love for antiques and rescuing animals. Through renovation, purchases of surrounding villas and innovation, Casa Bur’Sus evolved into Casa San Angel then finally Hacienda San Angel in 2003.

After 16 years of practicing yoga, I decided to share my passion for yoga & traveling to Mexico with others. Whole-Hearted yoga is a Christian yoga company that teaches the physical and mental benefits of yoga. We utilize scripture to create a spiritual aspect and Biblical world view in the practices. My purpose is to challenge, restore & empower women through faith-based yoga classes, workshops, and retreats.

It was a wonderful trip. The accommodations were amazing and the staff went above and beyond! I loved the bike street vendors tour, I didn’t enjoy the party boat excursion, but the people were very kind and I thought the food was good. Overall, it was a fun experience!

Lori makes each trip special and unique. Our recent trip to PV was amazing. The hotel is beautiful and the service there is the best ever! The food at the hotel and around town is so delicious. The activities were super fun and just the right amount of active time. On my first trip with Lori, I didn’t know anyone and ended making friends for life. And finally, the yoga is so so good. Lori has the best meditations. You will be refreshed and relaxed! I can say enough good things - JUST GO!
