Frequently Asked Questions

What do I need to know before I go?

  • Must have a valid passport before traveling to La Paz.

  • Flights are cheapest from Tijuana airport to La Paz International. Once you send in your deposit, I will send you detailed instructions for easy, cheap travel from San Diego to Casa Tara.

  • Covid Vaccinations are required to get back into the US.

 

Which airport do I fly in to?

Please arrive in La Paz International Airport (LAP) before 4pm. The retreat provides the option for an airport shuttle (optional with purchase).

 

I am new to yoga. Am I ready for a retreat?

Yes! You deserve a break from life! Look at a yoga retreat as a much-needed vacation for your mind, body and soul. I love working with yoga beginners and introducing them to this powerful, life-changing practice that extends beyond the mat. More seasoned practitioners will also get a lot out of this retreat as I introduce you to new techniques that will take your yoga journey to a whole new level. This retreat is open to all levels of yoga ability, age, and life experience. Come as you are. We will learn and move together.

 

I have a few dietary restrictions; can Casa Tara accommodate them?

Absolutely. Casa Tara’s private chefs are always changing and evolving their menu. Their chefs guarantee a unique experience tasting all of Baja’s flavors using the best fresh, seasonal, local ingredients. Every meal can be made vegan, vegetarian or gluten free. The chefs are very talented and can accommodate any other dietary restrictions you have while keeping all the flavors on your plate!

 
 

What should I pack?

Once you send in your deposit I will send you a complete packing list before the travel date.

 

Is Mexico safe?

Yes. Absolutely. Casa Tara Retreat Center is on a private, secure property in El Sargento, a small beach town 35 minutes outside of the main city of La Paz. There are very few tourists here so we will most likely have the beaches to ourselves!

 

Tell me a little about the Retreat Center

Casa Tara’s Retreat Center is a beautiful space that sits on the beach, and the owner consciously chose to use low-impact building alternatives: straw bales were used as filler in the walls for insulation, and renewable solar energy powers part of the Hotel. As to the atmosphere, they had a Feng Shui expert come and lead the whole furnishing and color scheme process inside all the yoga, living and dining area. Casa Tara was built with the intention for you to relax and get in touch with your inner bad ass self. Each room has an ocean view, talented chefs are on site to prepare every meal, the infinity pool is majestic, and there’s an outdoor Palapa Yoga Shala with the best ocean view on the property.

 

Who will my roommate be?

I carefully and consciously pair each double room with humans who I think will be the best fit. Once you send in your deposit, you will receive a roommate questionnaire which will help me find the best roommate for you. Solo travelers, have no fear!

 

What should I expect?

In a nutshell… play time, yoga time, nurturing foods and conversation, and extra chips and guacamole.
