Retreat 2018: Floating along the lazy river in Muyil
Yoga retreats are mini-experiences of cohousing; everyone resides near each other, share daily fun and transformational experiences, eats meals together, make decisions collectively, and find moments to support and encourage each other. All the ingredients for an incredible community are there: like-minded people, a shared purpose and proximity. Your fellow travelers become friends for life.

Know Before You Go
- To officially reserve your spot, your deposit of $495 must be made within 24 hours of completing the booking form. The link for future payments will be sent in our booking confirmation email. Deposits are non-refundable. All other payments are refundable up to 180 days prior to the retreat. After 180 days trip cancellations will not be eligible for a refund through The Adventure Awaits Retreats. This is why travel insurance is mandatory.
- Remember to purchase travel insurance. This is a must-have for everyone attending. If something comes up suddenly and you are unable to attend, or you get injured, sick, theft- traveller's insurance will refund your investment or cover your loss at a nominal fee (usually runs about $50-$75 to insure, offered by most credit cards). We are not liable for any cancellations for any reason, injuries, theft or illness that arise during the retreat.
- Book your flights early! We highly recommend downloading a flight tracking app- they are awesome! Hopper, google flight tracker etc can help you find the best possible flight prices (we also have a link on our home page!)
- Pay in installments: this will help make the trip investment feel more affordable! We will help by sending payment nudges via email! Payments can be made in any amount at any time.
- This is one part relaxation retreat one part adventure retreat! Be prepared to walk and move around a lot, especially during our hiking day at the ruins.
- Accommodations are simple, yet breathtakingly beautiful. During our stay at our Tulum eco villa you may be sharing a room or bunk with our other travelers and sharing a bathroom. This is an Eco Retreat Center, which means we forgo the frills of luxury retreats: shut off all lights, fans & AC before leaving, no paper in the toilets- toilet paper, tampons etc. Tulum has a very delicate eco system so this is strongly enforced.
Si'an Kaan Bioreserve, Tulum Mexico
Exploring Tulum pays big rewards; spectacular powder sand coastline, jade-green water, dramatically situated Maya ruins, cenotes & restaurants to fit every liking."
