You will enjoy the closeness of the natural elements, the stimulation of the open-air private showers, and the stunning views of Puerto Vallarta and the Pacific Ocean from your terrace.
Since its very beginning, Xinalani has taken the pledge to offer a more affordable option for budget-conscious travelers that seek to build community. Big Palapa (880 square feet) is a dorm-style room that inspires community and friendship. It features very comfortable single beds each with its own mosquito netting providing lots of privacy.
With a great view of the jungle and the ocean, Big Palapa is the perfect option for cost-wary travelers that do not mind sharing their room. The room has eight single beds and two bathrooms. It can be co-ed or strictly girls. In Big Palapa, there is a single drawer below each bed to store personal belongings. The room is equipped with safe deposit boxes.
Program
This retreat was handcrafted for women looking to escape to the warmth and serenity of tropical Mexico. Reward your body, strengthen your spirit, and connect yourself with other yogis on a similar journey. The solo traveler retreat was designed not only to offer respite from the stresses and stagnation of your normal routine but also to provide an opportunity to meet other health and yoga enthusiasts during your time here at the resort.
Whether you're a total beginner or a seasoned yogi, learn new techniques in the yoga classes. Pamper your body and let tension melt away. Their expert therapists’ hands will leave you feeling light, reenergized, and deeply relaxed.
Bask in the peaceful serenity of the jungle and the pristine beaches and connect with your peers all in one retreat. Calm the mind and soothe the body with six days of yoga, healthy-gourmet dining, meditation, and activities - all in the setting of a secluded beach accessible only by boat and surrounded by lush, mountain-jungle.

Instructors
Arjuna Valero
Arjuna is a yoga instructor who seeks to motivate the student to find and consciously define among the wide variety of yoga styles the practice that is best suited to his anatomy and personal search. Arjuna had contact with his first physical practices of yoga in his childhood and early adolescence, but it was not until the age of 16 that he began to deepen in the different areas of knowledge that yoga offers as a way of life. At that same age, he was invited to take his first certification focused on traditional Hatha yoga (Sivananda style) under the teachings of Olinka Villanue.
Jerry Félix
Gerardo Félix, also known as Jerry, is not only a yoga instructor but also a neurologist who specializes in mindful eating and vegan nutrition. He sees yoga as a great way to help improve and create a better version of oneself. In an environment of kindness and respect, he leads his students through a practice adapted to their needs, where they can lift their spirits and leave the room with more awareness. Since 2015 Jerry started the joyful path of teaching. He got his Vinyasa yoga teacher certification in Mexico. Then in 2016, he studied Yin and Restorative yoga with Maria Abad and Bernie.
Dionne Eleonor
Dionne views yoga as a tool for personal empowerment in all areas of life. She takes her students on a journey of creating new musculoskeletal patterns and positive neuroplasticity. This leads her students to develop long-lasting tools for self-regulation, self-soothing, and personal development.
