FINDING YOUR INNER POWER
Barbarenas is a retreat center with hand-crafted and naturally built eco-cabañas among tropical flora and fauna. Located in Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca Province, Mexico, Barabarenas has 4 round eco-cabañas for 18 guests, a natural swimming pool, an open-air kitchen, and a large deck with ocean views for yoga & meditation.
When I first found Barbarenas I immediately fell in love with its peaceful setting and natural atmosphere. I knew I wanted to return to this inspiring place and share what I had found with my students. It's a perfect envirinment to practice together, find quiet and disconnect from our daily routine.
Accommodations
You will be sleeping in one of 4 Eco Cabanas on the property. The rooms can be configured to accommodate couples or individuals. In addition, each Cabanas has a private, rooftop “nook” with a full bed under traditional palapa thatch style roofing. The Cabanas have private terraces with ocean views and ensuite bathrooms.
Dining is farm-to-table vegetarian and fish/seafood meals served buffet family style. Barbarenas sources local and organic produce as much as possible, some grown on-site and some from their farm a few miles away. Strictly vegetarian, vegan, gluten free and other dietary restrictions are available if requested ahead of time.
Early morning breakfast includes tea, coffee, fresh fruit, juices, local baked goods and cereals/oats. Midday brunch includes mexican style foods (chilaquiles, huevo al mexicana, beans), eggs, tortillas, fruit, and veggies. Dinner includes local salads, veggies, fish, grains and dessert. Afternoon snacks and drinks are always available. Of course, the cooking tends towards Oaxacan themed meals.

How to get to Barbarenas in Puerto Escondido
The Retreat center is located in Brisas de Zicatela, Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca, Mexico, and is just 15 minutes from Puerto Escondido International airport (PXM). Frequent daily flights connect PXM to Benito Juárez International Airport (MEX) in Mexico City. Local taxis will bring you to Barabarenas from the airport for roughly $10-$20 US dollars. US citizens do not require a Visa to visit Mexico but should have a valid passport.
It’s just a 7 minute walk to the beach La Punta in Puerto Escondido and surrounded by miles of beautiful sandy beaches on the Pacific Ocean. The famous surf break Zicatela is just a short walk and spectate some of the best surfers in the world. Some other near by beaches which are calmer for swimming are Carrizalillo & Baccocha with it’s picturesque views. The water is warm (but not too warm) year around, and while pacific currents can be strong, there are no issues with algae and other pollutants found on the Caribbean side.
