Accommodation

The guesthouse is the 3rd incarnation of a series of retreat houses that we have created to host retreat groups over the years. The main living area shares a sitting room and a dining area indoors. There are porches both on the front side of the house and the beach side (please stay tuned for the beach terrace photo…I’m waiting for a table to be finished and then we will photograph it!). Bedrooms are simple and cozy with neutral tones, natural textures from local sources and some with ocean views.

The house has 8 bedrooms (5 privates with a queen bed each and 3 shared with 2 twin beds). Bathrooms are shared amongst the house. There are three full bathrooms plus a double sink wash area upstairs and an outdoor shower with doors on the beach. Our yoga studio has ocean views from the second story terrace of the house. Yoga mats and blocks are available.

"I wish I could give 10 stars! I participated in the Holbox retreat and it exceeded all expectations. The accommodations were incredible, the attention to detail and the personalization that Christina treats each person with is incomparable. All the organized events we did were so special and respectful of the local culture. Everything is optional and has a very laid-back feel- but extremely organized and professional at the same time! Yoga teacher Sherry Sidoti is gracious, humble, respectful, and just a wonderful teacher. Anyone from a super experienced yogi to a complete beginner can love her class and get so much out of it. I loved every single minute!"

"Love Christina and YAWW! I did a retreat in Tulum and every single aspect of the week was dialed in perfectly. Vibes, space, food, yoga, activities and the people. Christina knows what she's doing and I look forward to joining another adventure! I recommend for a first timer or someone who is looking to fill their cup with a new adventure!"
