About your trip

ONE SPOT JUST OPENED UP! In a triple with random female roommates. GRAB IT.



We believe in the power of community and collective movement and bring people together through curated travel experiences where adventure, social and wellness rituals make for a balanced, intentional way to spend your hard-earned time off.


Join Montana Mitchell and Presley Gedman for four full days together, where everything we do will be centered around intentionality, vulnerability, and community. The goal? Leave for home with renewed clarity, refocused energy, and new friends.


The Retreat in Tulum is an opportunity to unplug, move your body, rest your mind, and reconnect with yourself through The Retreat's signature take on daily yoga and cardio (we call it Collective Move + Flow) and ample free time to explore Tulum, read a book, swim, participate in a group Temezcal ceremony, experience ancient Mayan healing massage therapy and reiki, and so much more. The best part? All activities are optional, so you can curate the retreat that works for you (but, let's be honest, most of our clients want to experience it all!).

Catherine, the Founder of The Retreat, has traveled all over — from Iceland to Morocco, Costa Rica to Greece, Bolivia to California — and what she's learned is that Tulum is the place where she feels the most magic, the most peace, the most joy, and the most connected — more than anywhere else, and she and The Retreat team cannot wait to share this magical, healing place with you.

Accomodations at Amansala Resort

Amansala is an all-inclusive resort and retreat center located steps from the ocean with four yoga shalas, two oceanside pools (rare in Tulum!), a relaxed boho dining room overlooking the water, a spa specializing in Mayan healing therapies, and plenty of space to lounge and enjoy the Mexican sunshine. The resort is one of Tulum's original internationally recognized boutique hotels with an eco-chic vibe that comes with many Trip Advisor Traveler’s Choice and Certification of Excellence awards, as well as many great customer reviews.


Choose the room type that works for you — a private room or select a shared room, perfect for a couple, for friends, or whoever else you may want to stay with.


If you don’t have a buddy traveling with you, don’t worry. This retreat is designed for solo travelers, too! You can book a solo room or reach out to us if you are interested in potential roommates and we'll try to play matchmaker, though we cannot guarantee a match.


Please remember that in Tulum, resorts like Amansala have a more rustic vibe and aren’t like big-box chain hotels in the United States. The amenities at Amansala are charming and have so much character, we hope you’ll feel right at home.
