All-inclusive casual luxury.
All-inclusive yoga retreats.
Beyond relaxing
Relaxation starts with uncomplicated decisions and planning. Beyond is all-inclusive and we’re open every week of the year. Just book your flight and we’ll take care of the rest.
THE TEAM
With 150+ years combined experience, our team is led by Michelle Hernandez who has practiced yoga for 34 years and tought for 14. Every member of the wellness team contributes different styles of yoga and therapeutic modalities, offering our guests a complete and enriching experience.
THE RESORT
We are located in southern Puerto Vallarta, Mexico where the Sierra Madre jungle meets the Pacific Ocean, and approximately 25 minutes from the airport. The resort consists of several treehouse villas perched on a hillside, engulfed in jungle, and overlooking the ocean.
THE ROOMS
You will be roomed in one of our 5,000 sqft villas. Each villa offers wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling retractable glass walls that open to views of the ocean, jungle, gardens, and/or pools. We offer four room configurations ranging in size from 260 to 1,500 sqft.
THE FOOD
Every day you will receive gourmet, vegetarian, breakfast, lunch, and dinner at Treehouse Restaurant. You will also have access to Treehouse Coffee in between meals where you can enjoy espresso drinks and healthy snacks - all included. Not vegetarian? Neither are 95% of our guests and they rave about our menu.
THE YOGA
Yoga and meditation practice takes place twice daily - sunrise and sunset sessions. Every class is taught by a different teacher offering different perspectives and styles of yoga. Classes are offered al fresco in our rooftop studio overlooking the jungle and ocean.
THE SPA
Included in your retreat package, you will receive our signature Ananda 50-minute massage and you can also book additional massages, facials as well as manicure and pedicure services from our spa menu.
THE PROGRAMMING
In addition to yoga and meditation, your retreat includes a variety of workshops, ceremonies, and rituals led by our wellness team including sound bath, pranayama, ice bath, sound circle, etc. to further guide you to reconnect with yourself physically, mentally, and emotionally.
THE FRIENDSHIPS
Friendship is not something we promote but it is something that naturally develops at Beyond: guests arrive as strangers and leave as friends, sometimes staying in touch for years, and sometimes reuniting at our resort.
THE EXCURSIONS
Your retreat includes a guided tour of Los Arcos National Marine Park where you’ll snorkel among tropical fish and the occasional sea turtle, manta ray, whale, or dolphin. You’ll also be guided on a hike to Quimixto Water Fall, a remote island destination with a population of 300 that can only be reached by boat.
THE ITINERARY
Relentlessly improved upon since 2017 and tested by thousands of guests, we have what we believe to be the perfect retreat itinerary.

Puerto Vallarta is officially the safest beach destination in Mexico according to Mexico's National Urban Public Security Survey. Puerto Vallarta is ranked as Level 1 by the U.S. State Department, meaning Americans don’t need to exercise special precautions when visiting.
By extension, Beyond provides safe transportation to and from the airport and all activities outside the resort are guided by our staff. Our resort is located in a gated community with 24/7 security and cameras and surrounded by neighboring million+ dollar homes. Since opening in 2017, we’ve had zero security issues.
