Every year we take women to Present Moment Retreat in beautiful Troncones, Mexico for a week of yoga, meditation, surfing, horseback riding, and relaxing at one of the best beaches on the Pacific.

We've made this week even better by partnering with our friends at Camp Reinvention™, who will be hosting sessions on visioning, manifesting and intention-setting throughout our time together.  There's no better time to do this kind of exploring--when you're away from the stresses of daily life, surrounded by supporting women and true natural beauty, and open to joy and new possibilities. 

NextTribe members receive $100 off trip price. Join today. 

While it’s still cold in the States, we’ll have a whole boutique hotel to ourselves in this small Mexican village, north of Zihautanejo and Ixtapa. 

This women-only retreat in the idyllic beachfront setting has been so popular we're expanding how often we offer it. Since 2018, women have come from all over the world—some of them not knowing anyone else on the trip—and the bonding is quick and deep.

Be ready for walks on the beach with new friends, boogie-boarding in the waves, dance parties, shopping, and a childlike sense of play.

Our home for the week is Present Moment Retreat, a luxury boutique hotel on the Pacific. The hotel offers top-notch service and accommodations and organic meals. Present Moment staff teach two yoga classes and one meditation session every day. Skilled massage therapists give various kinds of body treatments. 

Present Moment has 11 rooms, so it’s an intimate hotel. But it has the amenities and level of service you’d expect at a larger resort.

This small community is 40 minutes north of the Zihautanejo airport (ZIH) and is a dream of a beach town. Troncones has long been known as a surfer destination because of the great waves, but recently others have discovered its low-key charms. 

NextTribe founder Jeannie Ralston has adored Troncones for years and wrote about it for the New York Times. 

Besides making new friends, practicing yoga, getting massages, re-imagining your life, and playing in the water or pool, here are some other activities guests love to do in and around Troncones: kayaking trips, snorkeling, hiking to a cave to see ancient petroglyphs, cacao ceremonies, tezmacal sessions, horseback riding on the beach, turtle release program, biking in town, surfing lessons, dancing. 

Read just a couple of stories written by guests at past NextTribe beach retreats.

Dana Hilmer and Wendy Perrotti are master-level coaches and the Co-Creators of Camp Reinvention™ , a global program and community that has helped thousands of women pivot to create a second half of life they are wildly excited about.

NextTribe founder Jeannie Ralston lived in Mexico for 4 years and travels there regularly. She has never had any trouble with crime or safety while in Troncones, which is a quiet beach village, where you’ll feel removed from any concerns about crime. Because it is so small and only one road into the town, locals can keep an eye on who is coming and going. 

Troncones is the kind of place where people live in open-air buildings, leave doors unlocked, and bicycles parked on the street without fear of them being taken. 

Fly into ZIH (Zihuatanejo) on your arrival date (always a Saturday). Major carriers that fly into ZIH: American Airlines, United, Delta, Aero Mexico and Alaskan. 

Most flights arrive in the afternoon. No matter what time you arrive, you will be met by a certified and vetted driver who will bring you to the hotel.

YOUR DEPOSIT:

Your initial deposit in non-refundable and reserves your spot on a trip. Even though your deposit is non-refundable, it is transferrable to another trip provided you cancel at least 30 days prior to the start of the trip. You may apply your deposit toward any other trip through 2024. 

YOUR BALANCE:

Full payment for your retreat is due 60 days prior to the start of the trip. At 60 days prior to your trip, there are no refunds for any reason. If you must cancel within this 60-day period, you will need to contact your travel insurance company for reimbursement. 

IF YOU CANCEL:

Up until 60 days prior to your trip, you can receive a refund for all but the deposit, which, as stated above, can be transferred to another trip through 2024. 

At 60 days prior to retreat, there are no refunds or credits. Your room and tour has already been paid to our vendors. NextTribe cannot offer refunds for any reason (Covid, injury, illness, death, etc). For this reason, we highly recommend you to purchase travel insurance. 

To officially cancel, you must send an email to NextTribe stating that you wish to cancel to admin@NextTribe.com.

IF WE CANCEL:

If we are forced to postpone or cancel your trip due to a significant event that makes it infeasible to operate the trip as planned (including, but not limited to, natural disasters, manmade disasters, Covid, disease, travel restrictions, etc.) NextTribe will offer credit for another trip (with a $100 discount on the next trip) or refund all of your payments. California travelers please note that NextTribe's Seller of Travel license number is 2153726-70 and we do not participate in the California Travel Consumer Restitution Fund (TCRF). 

PLEASE DO NOT MAKE AIRLINE RESERVATIONS UNTIL THE NUMBER OF SIGN UPS REACH THE MINIMUM STATED ON THE TRIP POSTING.

CHANGES TO TRAVEL:

We will make every effort to operate all trips as advertised, however all itineraries are subject to change. We reserve the right to alter or make reasonable substitutions as deemed necessary. 

TRAVEL INSURANCE:

Travel insurance is recommended to be purchased within 21 days of booking your retreat.

We strongly encourage every traveler to purchase travel insurance within 21 days of booking your trip. Several people have had to cancel recent trips because of a death in the family, an injury or COVID, and once we enter the non-refundable stage of your booking, we can NOT refund your trip for any reason. 

NextTribe is working with a travel company to make buying insurance easier. Until then, we suggest you consult this article for your best options. 

NextTribe offers a safe travel environment that through the energy and alchemy of adventurous women turns into a real community in a short amount of time.  

On every trip, you will be led by a friendly and fun woman of our own age, who has deep local knowledge and/or roots. She has proved to us that she is responsible, flexible, and truly cares about every traveler, nurturing new friendships and making sure no one feels left out. Other tour companies drop in a local guide who remains apart from the group. Our leader is the glue among the travelers--the person who ensures that this is more than a trip; it's a community of curious, like-minded women on the move.

We are known for group travel for women over 45 who don't normally like group travel. We keep our groups small and know that our guests are curious explorers who can take care of themselves. We allow them space to make the trip their own. You will not be in lockstep on a tight schedule behind a guide. You can roam on your own if you want (with a good GPS and an understanding of how to meet up with the group later) or you can take full advantage of the guide's knowledge of the city. 

We do expect our travelers to have a level of self-sufficiency, being able to carry their own bags if need be, and to be respectful of others in the group and open to new experiences and friendships.
