Frequently Asked Questions

Where are the Mixto Villas?

It's about 45 minutes by boat south of Puerto Vallarta. It is a new sister property to Xinalani, where I have hosted retreats previously. Xinalani is about a 5-10 minute walk from Mixto, and its facilities will be available to us as well.

No, you do not need to be vaccinated or show proof of a negative Covid test to enter Mexico or to return to the US

How many people will be on the retreat?

We will have the exclusive use of the Villas, which hold a max of 20 people. If you are traveling solo, you will stay with 2-3 other people in a guest room with a private bathroom. You have the option to reserve a guest room for yourself and a partner as well.
