About this trip

Minutes away from the hustle and bustle of Sayulita is a winding cobblestone road that leads to Playa Escondida, the hidden beach. It’s here, nestled between coconut palms and a quartz-adorned boulder on the shore, that you’ll find La Joya.  A family-run boutique hotel and retreat space, La Joya offers elegant accommodation, wellness-focused amenities and the opportunity to reconnect: to self, to nature, to whatever’s most important to you


Ladyvana is back at La Joya for it's second year and couldn't be more excited! Ladyvana is THE women's retreat, for women looking to reconnect with themselves, nature and sisterhood. 


Practice yoga overlooking the ocean, dive deep into your own internal world through guided journaling, conversation and activities. Leave a transformed human! Last year, this retreat sold out in hours, so grab your spot while you can!


Getting to La Joya

Retreaters can fly into Puerto Vallarta airport (PVR) which accepts direct flights from cities across Canada (including Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, Calgary, Victoria and Quebec), the USA (including Atlanta, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, New York City, San Diego, San Francisco and Seattle) and Finland.


Once there, take a leisurely 50-minute drive through the jungle via taxi or we can arrange a private SUV to pick you up for $150 + taxes per car/ round trip or $80 + taxes per car/ one way.


Last year, some retreaters flew in early or stayed later to explore surrounding areas such as San Pancho, Lo de Marcos, Punta Mita and/or Puerto Vallarta.

Reviews

Intentionally I took some time to write this review because the incredible effects of this retreat continue to compound and transcend into every area of my life. What I learned and experienced at Ladyvana far surpassed anything I could have asked for. I learned resources from Ally that make its way into my daily life and have quite literally change who I am. In the most positive way possible. The women, now turned sisters, that I met are one of the best outcomes of this retreat. Breathwork, movement, journaling, presence in nature, laughing and playing are all things I “knew” but now I reeaaaallly know. Thank you Ally for truly changing my life. I couldn’t begin to quantify this in words, so a virtual hug will have to suffice ❤️🙏🏼 Excited for my next one!

Ally Maz has a message for you

Ladyvana is hands down the absolute best thing I have done for myself ever! Words cannot describe how immensely special this experience was alongside 23 remarkable women. I entered the retreat with high expectations, given what I had heard about these retreats in the past, and the experience exceeded anything I could have ever expected! Ally does an incredible job of knowing what the group needs each day and curates the retreat to the groups needs. With the perfect balance of relaxation, self reflective work and time to bond with others, I came to the retreat feeling depleted and like a shell of myself and left the retreat feeling full, feeling joy and well equipped with the tools needed to maintain the growth made during the retreat. I am honestly shocked at how far we all came in just 5 days, I wouldn't trade the experience for anything and look forward to joining another one in the future! I highly recommend this retreat to any woman - you deserve it!

One of the most impactful weeks of my entire life. Ally Maz is an immensely unique soul. She has an incredible gift of bringing women from all walks of life together to bond, heal, and transform. Every single aspect of this experience was impeccably planned and executed. Sansara Resort was beautiful and every detail was crafted perfectly. I most appreciate Ally's ability to make each attendee feel seen, heard, and special. I cannot recommend Ladyvana and Ally Maz enough. This is the best money you'll ever spend on your personal improvement and growth.

This was my first time attending a 6 day retreat. I attended solo not knowing anyone. Ally has curated her retreats flawlessly! From start to finish. She is so thoughtful and puts her heart and soul into the experience. I went into the retreat feeling a bit lost. As many mothers do, we can throw ourselves into our families and forget to give ourselves the same care. I came away with so much clarity and feeling empowered with the tools and teachings from Ally. Not to mention all the amazing women I met. Many new friends AKA soul sisters! If you’ve always wanted to take time away to reconnect to yourself but felt too guilty to do so…(mom guilt is real.)Do it! BOOK it! Life is NOW! Thank you, Ally and Lady Vana Retreats for this unforgettable experience. I will forever hold these memories of this week in my heart. I’ve never laughed so hard and cried so much all in the same week. Looking forward to attending another Lady Vana Retreat in the future. 💫

If you believe in the definition of a miracle is as a shift in perspective, Ladyvana isn't really a yoga retreat, it is a journey of creating miracles. Panama 2023 was my 2nd Ladyvana trip, and I can say with certainty now that the magic I felt the first time in Mexico was not a fluke or a one-off experience. Ally is such an incredible conduit for deep work and connection, and brings a beautiful balance of joy, humor and power to her retreats that makes the impossible feel easily accessible. Both retreats I've gone on have been truly life-changing experiences, and each one has helped me find exactly what I needed at that moment in my life, even when I had no idea what I was looking for. The women I have connected with on these trips have become friends for life, and I am so grateful to be part of this sisterhood of amazing, supportive, vulnerable and authentic women across the world. From helping plan before the trip with hotel recommendations for Panama City and packing lists, to navigating challenging logistics to get us all to Sansara quickly and safely, Ally truly went above and beyond to make sure everyone was supported throughout the entire journey. If you have been thinking about joining a Ladyvana retreat, consider this your sign to do it!
