While only 20 minutes outside of Cabo San Lucas, it feels very remote and tranquil. Elegant oceanfront accommodations, delicious food, beautiful setting, and exceptionally serene. Comfy beds, organic linens, swimming pool, hot tub, travertine tile, spa facilities including massage, scrubs, reflexology, and more. Get there before it's discovered!

They aren't about a nice holiday. They're about inward focus, learning and more inward focus/contemplation. Does a yoga retreat where you sleep in a tiny bamboo hut with no electicity, running water or flushing toilet sound like anyone's cup of tea? Oh yeah, when we're not doing yoga, meditating or discussing yoga philosophy, we're busy with the upkeep of the land (in the wilds of north-east Thailand), including emptying those non-flushable toilets, working in the permaculture garden and weed whacking. But this year, I'm not going. Yeah, I lost my job and can't afford it. So my priorities are to continue my studies and practice here at home and oh yeah, finding ways to earn money again (which I haven't done for the past three months!).

It's about an hour from the city (the bus ride is an hour and twenty) - and everything is pretty durn cheap. Mention my name when you get there and they won't have a clue what you're talking about. It might kind of funny, though. For those in or near NYC, there’s always Ananda Ashram in Monroe NY (http://www.anandaashram.org/).
