I had such a wonderful experience at Xinalani. The yoga facilities are well maintained, and beautifully situated within the property. The rooms are simple but elegant. I appreciate the mosquito netting and staff keeping the rooms clean everyday. The staff was amazing the entire trip - they were so attentive if we had questions or needs, and they were all... More

We came for the solitude and 4 days of not being able to do anything except switch off & were not let down - a capacity of 36, we were 2 of 14 at the start, sharing the property with a thoroughly lovely yoga retreat group. We had a daily class from the in house yoga instructor (I was a... More

I'm still feeling the positive effects of staying in an open air palapa/hut overlooking the beach, the sounds of the jungle and the roar of the ocean. For me, the retreat was a little oais near a very poor village. On the other side of this clean, upscale, and posh little retreat center, is a small local village which is... More

I spent the most amazing week at Xinalani! First of all: The Ocean! Everywhere you are at this place you have the most breathtaking view of the ocean! Second: The staff! So friendly and kind! Third: The Rooms! Simple Zen Elegance. Fourth: The Food! Delicious and Healthy. At Xinalani you are removed from your regular life. No TV's or phones.... More

I attended a yoga retreat at Xinalani this January. We all agreed that they could not have done anything better to create a magical, restful and friendly place to stay and practice yoga or just relaxation. The cost is quite low considering that it includes the most amazing vegetarian food and meticulous housekeeping. You can have as much privacy as... More

This Hotel is only accessible via boat. If you are looking for a place that is close to nature - this would be it. The rooms are very comfortable with a stunning view on the ocean. To wake up in the morning to the sound of the ocean waves was very soothing. I could not think of a place that... More

I've written 10+ reviews on TA. This was a unique experience. During the first week in December, 12 of us spent 5 nights in paradise!! The Xinalani is just that. Located about 35 min. by panga (small boat) south of Puerto Vallarta, this resort has it all. We went for a yoga retreat, but that is not necessarily the draw.... More
