“There’s just nothing like this week. I come back every year because I know exactly what I’ll get: rest, connection, sunshine, and a deep breath I didn’t know I needed.... This is a very special retreat — because you really care about people.”
“Linda has a great teaching presence and ability to share her extensive knowledge and experience of yoga with students on a variety of levels, from subtle body level to gross body therapeutics. She offers options for each practice, so each student can adjust to their own level of energy/experience..”

SETTING: TRONCONES BEACH and LAS VILLAS
LAS VILLAS: Las Villas on Troncones Beach is a chill, gorgeous oceanfront retreat 30 minutes north of Zihuatanejo on Mexico’s Pacific Coast. Each villa has multiple bedrooms with private or shared baths, a shared kitchen and breezy common space to hang out.
Kick back by the saltwater infinity pool, catch breathtaking sunsets over the ocean, wake early and take in the sunrise over the Sierra Madre mountains, or just wander the beach—it’s all right outside your door.
MEALS: Fresh, locally sourced brunch and dinner are provided daily, mostly on site at the Villas, with both vegetarian and fish or meat options. Meals feature authentic Mexican cuisine prepared by Las Villas’ gourmet cooks, who will do their best to meet special dietary needs. We also plan to have two group dinners at local restaurants with outdoor seating (included in retreat fee).
ACTIVITIES: In addition to our daily wellness practices, there’s lot more to do, including:
Walking, running and exploring the 3+mile stretch of golden Troncones beach
Kayaking, hiking and horseback riding
Boogie-boarding and swimming in the warm Pacific waters
Cooking lesson at a local restaurant
Massage and spa services with local providers
Surf and stand-up paddleboard lessons
Local sea turtle sanctuary — watch the release of baby turtles into the ocean
THE TOWN: Just a short walk down the beach from Las Villas is Troncones, a small community with a few tiendas, beachfront restaurants, small hotels, B&Bs, cafes, and surf shops (some of the best surfing in Mexico is in this area). A few of our favorite spots are:
Lorenzo’s “Cocos Frios” stand just across the bridge on the way into town — don’t miss your chance to sit a spell and enjoy a nice, cool drink from a freshly cut coconut!
The open-air market on Thursday morning at Tres Mujeres Boutique Hotel, where local artisans and food vendors offer their wares (just a few doors down from Las Villas).
Cafe Pacifico, creating some of the best coffee drinks and smoothies in town. They are also a full-service restaurant offering delectable breakfast, lunch and dinner items.

Visit our Retreat Travel Considerations page for detailed information and suggestions regarding travel insurance.
AIRFARE/AIRLINE RECOMMENDATIONS:
Consider purchasing a refundable fare for maximum flexibility.
United Airlines and American Airlines have the best itineraries, at least for trips originating in Pittsburgh. For travel originating in other cities, check United, American, Delta, and Alaska Airlines (good from the West Coast).
American Airlines — If traveling from Pittsburgh (PIT), be aware of possibly very short connection times for connecting flights.
United Airlines — From Pittsburgh (PIT), the United itinerary to ZIH is very good on Saturdays.
Connecting flights — Most, if not all, Delta itineraries connect through Mexico City, while United and American connect in U.S. airports and from there fly directly to Zihuatanejo.
Alternate Airports for Departure: At times, we’ve found lower fares and shorter itineraries into ZIH (including some direct flights) from locations other than our home airport of Pittsburgh International (PIT). Airports to consider include: Atlanta (ATL), Chicago O’Hare (ORD), Cleveland (CLE), Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW), Denver (DEN), Houston (IAH), Los Angeles (LAX), Minneapolis-St. Paul (MSP) and San Francisco (SAN).
