Questions

What was The Mayan Yoga Retreat?
The Mayan Yoga Retreat was a blissful yoga retreat held in the sacred heart of the Riviera Maya jungle, hosted at Lunita Jungle Retreat Center. Its invitation was simple: immerse yourself in nature, connect with your inner self. The retreat drew upon the grounding energy of the Mexican land and the sacred traditions that live within it, gathering at a sanctuary described as rooted in love, guided by respect, and inspired by a sacred relationship with Mother Earth. It offered rejuvenating yoga practices in open-air shalas, sacred ceremony spaces for community connection and introspection, and opportunities for healing work, rest, and deep transformation.
When did The Mayan Yoga Retreat take place?
The Mayan Yoga Retreat ran from April 25 to May 2, 2026 at Lunita Jungle Retreat Center near Puerto Morelos, Mexico, beginning at 2:00 p.m. and closing at 11:00 a.m. on the final morning. The retreat has concluded; its page remains as part of the story of what the jungle has held. Late April on the Riviera Maya meant warm days for the open-air practice the week was built around, with serene jungle surroundings filled with birdsong, fresh air, and sacred stillness, and proximity to the Puerto Morelos beaches and Caribbean waters for swimming and sunbathing between sessions.
What did the retreat include?
The week offered rejuvenating yoga practices in open-air shalas immersed in natural harmony, sacred ceremony spaces for community connection and introspection, and locally sourced, nourishing plant-based meals made with intention. Around the practice sat the experience of the place itself: serene jungle surroundings, sacred stillness, and the short trip to the beaches of Puerto Morelos and the Caribbean. The eco-conscious retreat center, nestled in secluded jungle a short drive from Cancún, was described as a hidden gem designed for rest, renewal, and reconnection, and the format left room for healing work, rest, and deep transformation alongside the daily yoga at Lunita Jungle Retreat Center.
Where was the retreat held?
The Mayan Yoga Retreat was held at Lunita Jungle Retreat Center, Ruta de los Cenotes Km 17, Puerto Morelos, Quintana Roo, Mexico, about 40 minutes by road from Cancún International Airport. The center is an intimate venue for twenty guests, 5,000 square metres built inside 80,000 square metres of preserved jungle, fully solar powered, with an open-air glass yoga shala and a pool fed with cenote water. Yoga retreats sit naturally here: practice spaces open to the jungle, plant forward kitchen, ceremony spaces for the traditions the retreat drew on, and the beach close enough for an afternoon in the Caribbean.
Will a yoga retreat like this return, and what can I do now?
This edition has concluded. Yoga retreats return to Lunita Jungle Retreat Center regularly, so the retreat calendar is the place to see what is coming up with dates and leaders; the site's yoga retreats section describes the format in general. You can also design your own personal retreat, weaving daily yoga, ceremony, and rest around your own dates, or book a free call with the team to match what you are looking for with the right upcoming week.
