reconnect, restore & renew

Yelapa Oceanfront Retreat 2026

March 16-23, 2026
a week of magic, rest, and play

Imagine waking to waves outside your window, warm, nourishing meals prepared for you, and a whole day with nothing required of you.

Yelapa is an ocean-kissed village where cobblestone roads and jungle paths meet the sea, and life is lived on foot — to the beach, to the café, to the waterfall, or simply back to rest. Here you’ll be completely cared for, with oceanfront rooms, gentle guidance, and moments to move, breathe, and return to your body in a natural, unhurried way. Surrounded by the ease of this town and the presence of kind, grounded women, you’ll feel your cup slowly refill — remembering your softness, your joy, and your steady, living strength.

Past Retreat Feedback from Google Reviews

Kat and Lauren are magical humans. I started attending sound baths with them, and when the opportunity opened up to attend a Yoga/sound bath/meditation retreat with them in Mexico- the pull was too strong to ignore and I had to go. Zero regrets. The experience was life altering, transformative and restorative- and the space they both held for me and the others will be something I’ll carry in my heart forever.

— Andrea P.

Lauren and Kat are truly the most incredible humans. They make everyone feel welcome, everyone is accepted in the most wonderful way.

I went on a retreat to Mexico with them and it was truly the most incredible, delightful week of all time. Literally cannot wait to join them on future retreats.
