Location
Copal Retreat is located on an oceanfront villa in the Mexican Riviera Maya. The rooftop studio space offers panoramic views of the beautiful Caribbean ocean - perfect for a sunrise or sunset practice.
The villa is located near Tulum, an hour away from the Cancun International Airport. There is an abundance of coconut palm trees, tropical flowers, seashells, weathered limestone, hermit crabs, iguanas, and pelicans, plus a galaxy's worth of stars at night to gaze up at.
Five minutes south of La Villa, on a rugged bike path through the jungle, lies a turtle sanctuary. This ungroomed and isolated beach is the perfect spot to soak up some sun in peace. To the north of Copal - about a two-minute walk away, lies another beautiful beach with white powdered sand and fabulous margaritas.
