About this trip

Join Jenny Kaufman and Jessica Sandstrom on their 9th winter retreat as we return to Prana del Mar!  


Prana did not disappoint in 2020 and we booked it for Feb 2021 before we left.....and then the Pandemic hit!  We are sneaking in a late Spring 2021 retreat.  With light on the horizon, we anticipate that vaccines will be in place and travel will be safe.  *SEE COVID DETAILS AT THE BOTTOM.


The resort is nestled on five beachfront acres - the mighty Pacific Ocean to the west, the Sierra de la Laguna mountains to the east and the desert all around.  Resort facilities include a Club House with saltwater pool and jacuzzi, lounges, massage rooms, a stunning roof deck and a beautiful dining room serving delicious Mexican-influenced international cuisine - much of which comes from the organic garden.  Additionally, there are two stunning yoga studios with bamboo floors.    


Both Jen & Jess consider themselves lifelong students of the body and are consistently seeking new ways to explore yoga in the most effective, safe and positive ways possible.  Sharing their vast experience for a week of uninterrupted exploration in the art of yoga, meditation, nature and living.  There will be opportunities to explore your body and mind, the land and sea, incredible food and great company.  We welcome and honor practitioners of all levels.

*COVID DETAILS

Due the the pandemic, LIVE LOVE YOGA and Prana Del Mar will require a negative Covid test three (3) days prior to travel to Mexico.  


While at Prana del Mar, strict protocol is in place.  The Los Cabos municipality has guidelines for the safe operation of hotels and resorts practices in the industry. 

• Employee training for enhanced cleaning, sanitizing and personal hygiene (frequent hand-washing and hand-sanitizing).

• Employee temperatures will be taken at beginning of each shift. We have a stay-home policy for any employee displaying symptoms or an increased temperature as per WHO guidelines.

• Employees have received training with regard to proper hygiene and cleanliness, and maintain appropriate social distance from guests.

• Hand sanitizer is available throughout the property.

• Less frequent housekeeping for any guest rooms that request it.

• Whenever possible cleanings are done when guests are away from their rooms.

• Cleaning staff uses masks and gloves and follow best practices including extra sanitizing for high touch items.

• Kitchen staff wear protective masks, hair covering, and gloves inside the kitchen.

• No guest handling of food at the buffet. Some meals may be served plated. In most cases, meals are served buffet-style, but our team will staff the buffet behind acrylic shields and serve plates while guests stand at a distance. 

• Social distance in dining area is encouraged and sliding glass doors are open when temperatures permit to increase ventilation.

• Yoga studios are cleaned and sanitized before and after practice.

• Housekeeping staff places extra focus on disinfecting high touch areas.

• Each studio's capacity will be reduced to ensure appropriate distance between each yogi.

• Guests have the option to select their yoga mat and props and keep them for the length of their retreat. Labels will be available to identify them. Guests are allowed to take their props to their rooms if they prefer for peace of mind.

• Disinfectant wipes are freely available in each studio for our guests to clean their equipment.

• We encourage single occupancy, except for couples or known friends or family members.

• We offer an online check-in option.

Evolving new policies are under consideration based upon guidance and information shared by various health organizations such as WHO, CDC, local authorities, etc.  We’re doing our best to keep up on the latest science regarding transmission vectors to ensure that we emphasize the most important steps to keep everyone safe. 


As of this writing, the US requires a negative Covid test result to re-enter the county.   Prana will provide a technician to Prana del Mar and offer rapid antigen testing on site.  Results are back the same day.  They charge 1400 pesos per test which is about US$75 which will be your responsibility to pay.

Jenny and Jess curate unforgettable experiences. They place so much care into structuring an organized, thoughtful, and meaningful retreat. From the way they sequence and theme classes to the effort they put into connecting with each retreat-goer. Whether you go solo or with friends you will feel cared for and RELAXED. In fact, I've never felt as relaxed in my life as I have leaving Restorative Yoga by the third day in. Wow. I'll be a repeat customer!

Jenny and Jess, thank you for planning, organizing and hosting such an amazing retreat at Xinalani! I was thrilled to be there and experience the beauty, fun, yoga, cocktails, etc...with a wonderful group of people. I appreciate all that goes into the planning and execution of such an event; you make it appear seemless, but I know that there are a million moving pieces behind the scenes. I hope to see both on a visit to Chicago in the future. xoxo, Coleen

This was my fourth trip to Xinalani over the years, and I was so pleasantly surprised by the many improvements to a place that needed no improvements! This is truly the most beautiful place I have ever been, and not only because of the exquisite location. The staff are so kind and lovely (all of them!), the entire resort is immaculate and so lovingly maintained, the rooms are gorgeous with everything you need. The optional experiences were plentiful and so beautifully run. The food has always been outstanding, but the food this trip was all so delicious, varied, and beautifully prepared. I really cannot think of a more perfect, pristine location for a retreat. As for Jenny and Jess, they are hands down the very best. Ever. They are always such a perfect combination of light-hearted fun, thoughtful, grounded, and beautifully choreographed classes.

The experience was magical! The resort was breathtaking, the practice was just what I needed, all the staff was so welcoming/accomodating, and the sights and food was 10/10! I wish I could go back. I felt so taken care of and it was well organized.
