Careyes is a place that inspires one to recognize the magical beauty of nature and to dive deep into the heart. After being welcomed with warm towelettes and fresh hibiscus tea upon arrival, you’ll be delighted by the magnificent villas overlooking the Pacific Ocean; the most spacious and bright, big, blue skies; expansive sea views; a secluded beach; tropical gardens; fresh, organic, scrumptious food; private cascading infinity pools; Jacuzzis surrounded by stunning views and beautiful gardens; a delicious steam room; a very happy staff devoted to our comfort and well-being.
Careyes is such a unique and exquisite place, that to even get a little taste of it,
you must experience it for yourself.

Practice Anusara Yoga in what may be the most beautiful yoga studio you’ve ever seen. The stunning open-air studio is set on an exquisite property within lush tropical gardens and has beautiful wooden floors and an impressive palapa roof. Leading down a staircase to the studio, a waterfall dips into the canal that surrounds the space and adds to the musical sound of the sweet serenading birds.
The food is DELICIOUS, abundant, light, organic, fresh, wholesome and full of love. In addition to serving heaps of guacamole, fresh fruit and daily exquisite surprises, they make their own fresh fruit juices, yogurt, cheeses, jams and breads. Special requests are met with kindness.
Guests will also have access to therapeutic massage at the villas, a full spa and gym, snorkeling, scuba diving, horseback riding, coastal boat tours, kayaking, fishing, golf, polo, and more for an additional fee. There may also be opportunities to visit other grand villas in the area free of charge.
This will be a very special and intimate gathering in an exquisite location.
Reserve your space early to ensure your spot!

Words from the 2008 Retreat Participants:
“Life always seems to plop Anusara in my life at the most auspicious and appropriate of times. I could not imagine spending my spring break with a more amazing group of women - let alone, in a more amazing place. The studio, the food, the light, the staff, the teacher... I am convinced that there simply cannot be a teacher more approachable, more passionate, more inspiring, more real, more shri(!!!) than Laura. I am grateful to have her in my life, in general - but to spend a week with her in a place so magnificent...words could never do justice! Literally, the most healing and restorative week I can remember.”
~G. S.
“… the magic and beauty that we've shared there really stayed with me, and it gives me a sense of sweetness and strength that is all permeating and helps me 'float' even when things are less than blissful. I cherish that and am so grateful that you've opened the door for me to get there.”
~T. R.
"“Laura attracts an amazing, generous, fun community wherever she is teaching, there are smiles, excitement and love in the room, she has a gift to bring the best out in people. The retreat was an experience to let our lights shine, uncloak the heart fully and get in there with ourselves and when that happens with 13 women there is one awesome party happening. The combination of Careyes’ natural magical and healing energy and Laura´s unwavering devotion and support to her students you definitely feel loved and nurtured and having that for 7 days is bliss.”
~D. S.
“Five whole days of yoga with Laura was such a dream! There was plenty of time to cover the basics and still plenty of time to push beyond. And what a gorgeous spot on the planet, for the yoga, for our yummy meals, and for everything in between. Each asana, each bite, each moment in Careyes was pure beauty.”
~J. M.
"Oh my gosh Laura your retreat transformed me! It was so amazing to be with you and the other women for those 5 glorious days. I now practice every morning and meditate before even looking in the direction of my computer. Thank you, thank you for all your help, love, talent and grace of being so authentic."
