Join us at Xinalani Retreat Center
Nestled between a white-sand beach and the mountains, on a 10-acre property only accessible by boat, resides the eco-chic retreat center called Xinalani. Despite being only 12 miles south of Puerta Vallarta (making for easy travel to and from), Xinalani feels like it’s own island. Picture a completely secluded beachfront cliff property settled in amongst the trees of the jungle. But don’t let the seclusion fool you—- Xinalani is a well-equipped, impeccably built, pristine property boasting 2 open-air yoga spaces, a meditation cabin, 15 oceanfront suites and an exquisite spa. The creators of Xinalani took great care not to disturb the remarkable biodiversity of Banderas Bay. You will be snuggled in and atop trees in palm-thatched cabins with private outdoor showers. Gourmet chefs, utilizing the abundance of local produce and seafood, prepare each meal. Xinalani is bliss embodied and you will leave feeling rejuvenated, refreshed and ready for spring.

Alex Auder, director of Magu
Ame and Alex’s friendship began one night over a long dinner and lots of wine. This will be there first retreat together and they are thrilled to escape the treacherous New England winter and spend a week co-teaching and canoodling. Given their shared love of asana nitty-gritty, anatomical musings, philosophy shop-talking and margaritas, this is sure to be a week that will expand your understandings of yoga.
