You’ll stay in one of Barbarenas’ eco-cabañas, a collection of thoughtfully designed cabins that blend comfort with sustainability. Guests can choose from private cabins, private rooms, or shared quadruple bedrooms, all featuring en-suite bathrooms with rain showers. The adobe walls keep the interiors naturally cool, while local art pieces add a touch of color and soul to every space.
Barbarenas is a sustainable oasis just a short walk from the beach, surrounded by a lush permaculture garden and equipped with a natural swimming pool, open-air kitchen, and a yoga shala overlooking the ocean. All yoga equipment — mats, bolsters, blocks, and straps — is provided for your practice.
Program
At Barbarenas, every retreat is personalized to your rhythm and intentions. You’re free to design your own experience — choose how many yoga classes, treatments, or workshops you wish to join, and spend the rest of your time exactly as you need. The warm, dedicated team is always available to support and guide you throughout your stay.
You can also join community experiences, such as shared meals, sunrise gatherings, temazcal ceremonies, concerts, and sound baths — a wonderful way to connect with others and feel part of the Barbarenas family.

Retreat Location
The retreat takes place in Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca, Mexico — a laid-back coastal town where locals, travelers, and surfers coexist in easy harmony. Known for its authentic beach atmosphere, Puerto Escondido is one of the top surfing destinations in the world, yet it remains refreshingly low-key, with no large resorts.
Barbarenas sits just 10 kilometers from Puerto Escondido Airport (PMX) and a 10-minute walk from La Punta, Zicatela Beach, where you’ll find artisan shops, local restaurants, and surf culture at its best. Perched above La Punta, the retreat is surrounded by lush greenery and ocean views — a peaceful haven for rest and renewal.
