The perfect itinerary.
All-inclusive yoga retreats.
Beyond relaxing
Relaxation starts with not having to think or plan too much. Beyond is all-inclusive and we’re open every week of the year. Book your flight and we’ll take care of the rest.
THE TEAM
Our team has over 150 years combined experience, led by Michelle Hernandez who has been practicing yoga for 34 years and teaching for 14. Every member of the wellness team contributes a rich variety of yoga styles and therapeutic modalities, offering our guests a diverse and enriching retreat experience.
THE LOCATION
We are located in the southern end of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico where the Sierra Madre meets the Pacific Ocean. You’ll fly into PVR where our transport will pick you up and drive you to our location 25 minutes away. Our treehouse villas are perched on a hillside, engulfed in jungle, and overlooking the ocean.
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 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 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 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.

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.
