6 Day Women's Discovery Wellness Retreat with Detox, Meditation, and Yoga in Roatan

Facilities

This extended weekend will focus on detoxing your minds, bodies, and spirits as you learn more about yourselves. Focus heavily on gratitude and stretch your bodies as you stretch your minds.

Day 1: January 14, Thursday

• Arrive at mid-day, transfer from the airport.

About the trips

At Girl’s Guide, they are all about camaraderie and bonding:

• They love adventure, knowledge, and discovery
• They value kindness, down-time, and little luxuries
• They delight in new-found friends, experiences, and insight
• They celebrate diversity in age, background, and thought
• They are globally minded
• They don’t shy away from new tastes and smells
• They appreciate good wine, wonderful food (not to mention turn-down service at hotels)
• Discovery excites them
• Meeting new people intrigues them
• A beautiful doorway or a vibrant vista inspires them
• And they always say a big merci for all that life has to offer them
• Meet as strangers…leave as friends

Why women only?

Discovering a new place with a small group of women is a completely different experience than going on your own or with a larger mixed group. After you first glass of wine on night one, the stories and laughter begin. By the end of the week, people have made life-long friends. Watching this beautiful connection happen is the magic of Girls’ Guide to Paris and Beyond.

What’s the background of the women who travel?

The ladies who take GG2P's trips come from all backgrounds, ethnicities, and nationalities. All of their clients either have English as their first language or speak English comfortably. While others may organize trips based on age, GG2P believes that’s unnecessarily limiting. Their travelers range in age from 23 to 83, with the majority being 40-65.

But GG2P is always amazed at the close connections made between the 25 and the 75-year-old. It’s almost magical. It’s precisely this mix of women from different countries and at different points in their lives that GG2P believes make the trips so unique and special. Women of all ages know how to bond and overseeing and participating in that process is what GG2P is all about. This connection and bonding experience is powerful and it feels empowering for all involved.

Do people come solo or bring friends/family?

More than 75% of intrepid travelers are single women traveling alone but they also get a lot of mother/daughters, sisters, and close friends. Many come back for their 2nd, 3rd, or 4th trip.

• You'll visit the Roatan Chocolate Factory for a chocolate-making class, trip, and tasting.
• You'll have a pick your adventure day: Drive your own Dune Buggy Adventure | Discover Scuba (extra $45 – a whole day adventure) | Guided Snorkel Trip by Boat
• You will be taken on a whole island trip which will include: a sloth sanctuary visit, a zip line adventure, a mangrove kayak trip with a moment to snorkel through an old stranded shipwreck.
• You will have a kayak eco trip in the nearby Sandy Bay and snorkel at the Eel Garden in West Bay where you can see turtles and stingrays.

If you’re worried about going to Honduras, don’t be. Roatán is a world unto itself without the political and poverty issues of the mainland. Roatán is one of the Bay Islands surrounded by the second largest reef system in the world. Snorkel directly out from the hotel’s bay through one of the most species-rich waters in the Caribbean in terms of both coral and fish, a.k.a. a dive and snorkel heaven!
