Our small group of 10 guests loved slow mornings of poolside coffee and yoga, private chef meals, afternoons of reading a good book on the back and quiet nights in our private villa on the eastern coast of the Dominican Republic.
Whether they were taking an walk in the ecological park, swimming in the cenotes or napping in a hammock... There was lots of fun and relaxation to be had! An unexpected highlight - watching the Super Bowl coverage and game in Spanish! We also enjoyed yoga practices with one of our favorite local teachers!

This was our third retreat to the spectacular Laikipia County and the Ol Pejeta Conservancy near Mount Kenya. A group of 15 guests enjoyed happy hour sunset drinks on the Equator, observed hippos in a nearby river and were visited by a herd of elephants during yoga class (twice)! They had other incredible wildlife encounters such as zebras, giraffes, Black rhinos, a lion pride on a kill and more. There's truly nothing that can compare to a private safari retreat with a dozen new friends!
Sept. 2024
Our group of 15 enjoyed accomodations at a private estate during their week that was specially curated for the ideal mix of adventure and relaxation.
From exotic meals at rooftop restaurants in the medina to camel treks in the desert, every day was a new bucket list experience.

Some favorite moments were seeing a family of elephants cross the river that runs through our safari cottage accommodations and meeting the last two Northern White Rhinos on earth. And of course, the nightly sundower drinks on the plains!

One of our most boutique retreat experiences is at our favorite villa in Puerto Vallarta's best neighborhood - Zona Romantica. Our group of 10 guests enjoyed our amazing villa with morning yoga and local breakfast served up daily, multiple private dinners with our favorite local chef and lots of chances to dive into ceviche and margaritas on the beach - overlooking the Pacific Ocean!
Always a guest favorite - we ventured out with local oceanologists and conservationists for a morning of epic whale watching! From our private boat, the group witnessed more than a dozen whales surfacing and breeching in Puerto Vallarta's Bay of Banderas. The humpback whales migrate there every winter to have their babies.

January 2024
A group of 13 intrepid guests ventured all the way to Southeast Asia to explore ancient temples, experience heaps of local culture, incredible meals and culinary delights.
Many guests especially enjoyed the trip to the elephant sanctuary - a sacred place where the elephants who were previously used for inhumane tourism (before the Cambodian government banned the practice in 2019) have been rescued and will live out their natural lives being spoiled! Our guests got to feed them snacks, walk with them through the forest and even help bathe them!
The group also loved our final day to get off the beaten path of most tourists: a visit to a local school, a monk blessing in our guide's home and a bike ride through the rice paddy fields!

Our 15 guests for our inaugural Yoga + Safari Conservation retreat enjoyed impeccable service and unlimited game drives through one of Kenya's top local conservancies.
Each day after optional morning yoga on the verandah, guests hopped in 4x4 vehicles with our expert guides at the helm. They helped the group find and learn about some of Africa's favorite wildlife: lions, elephants, rhinos, zebra and more! Every day on safari ended with sundowners (cocktails on the plains). Some extra memorable experiences were drinks on the Equator, meeting the last two northern white rhinos on Earth, spotting a cheetah and witnessing a lion pride with more than a dozen members!
September 2023
From hiking the rugged and world-famous Cliffs of Moher to trekking to a shipwreck on the Aran Island of Inisheer... we really used our legs to explore and made the most of the beautiful and unusually sunny fall weather on the west coast of Ireland!
But we countered all that walking with long soaks in the Canadian barrel hot tub, deep stretch evening yoga classes in our glass front yoga shala, sipping local hot tea in our journaling workshop, strolls along the seashore and dips in the chilly rocky ocean.
June 2023
There's nothing quite like boarding your very own yacht for a weeklong tour on the Adriatic Sea with a group of 28 or so friends (new + old)!
Our cruise started along the stunning waterfront town of Split and then we explored all of the most beautiful towns on the Dalmatian Coast of Croatia including Dubrovnik, Korčula and Hvar... as well as some lesser known areas such as the resort town of Makarska, the gleaming white stone village of Pučišća and our favorite family vineyard in Lumbarda.
April 2023
We lead a group of 15 Americans on their first trip to North Africa. They enjoyed a stunning retreat venue nestled between bustling Marrakech and the Atlas Mountains. Gourmet meals, guided mountain village hikes, camel treks in the desert, local cooking classes, shopping in the markets, hearing the call to prayer during Ramadan - you name it, we experienced it!
You could say that we drank up every last drop of amazingness that these cultural and culinary activities can offer (most of which can only be had in Morocco).
March 2023
Our retreat guests enjoyed a week at our modern Caribbean villa in the Dominican Republic. Our luxury private home had a nearby private beach club access, an on-site chef and plenty of lounge chairs around a crystal blue pool.
One day we explored a nearby Ecological Reserve and Park to swim in crystal clear cenotes and lagoons. Otherwise it was a week of yoga classes, meditations, spa visits and beach time! The private chef food was an absolute highlight for the group - from poke bowls, to fresh fish ceviche to Dominican breakfast specialties to amazing tropical fruit -- we were well fed!

The second retreat - Boutique Retreat to Remote Coastal Panama (Feb 2023) was 6 days in our idyllic paradise in the Chiriquí province. Far from any other tourists, our guest enjoyed exploring deserted islands by boat, snorkeling, surfing and more!
Nov 2022
An amazing group of 14 guests enjoyed a once-in-a-lifetime adventure to Southeast Asia. We traveled right after rainy season, so we got the most lush version of Cambodia with lots of greenery and teeming with life. We were based in the breathtaking town of Siem Reap which is packed with ancient temples, lotus flowers and Buddhist monks.
Our long-term partners and local guide teams showed the group an incredible week of the highlights like Angkor Wat (the largest religious complex in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage site) and also more off-the-grid adventures like biking through local villages and being blessed by village monks at a local home with the whole neighborhood in attendance!
We also enjoyed a visit to a local market to shop and get ingredients for our local cooking class. We learned the secrets behind Cambodia's most popular dish - fish amok - a curry and coconut dish served over rice.

Croatia is truly one of the Mediterranean's last unspoiled gems. With the food reminiscent of Italy's best and stunning island paradises akin to their other neighbor Greece -- it's the perfect combination for a once-in-a-lifetime vacation. Croatia boasts more than 1200 islands plus vineyards, ancient villages and world-class restaurants, so there's truly no place better to explore via a private yacht. Our guests enjoyed an incredible week of practicing in a floating yoga studio, swimming in crystal clear waters and hiking to breathtaking views.
August 2021
Our retreat guests enjoyed a week at a beachfront coastal retreat center near Agadir in southern Morocco.

Retreat guests practiced in an ocean-front and open air yoga shala right on the white sandy beaches of unspoiled Tulum on the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico.
