Ochuna in Baja gathers twelve women at a time in a private beachfront casa near Todos Santos. Five and seven days of surf coaching, sunrise yoga on the sand, sound baths under the stars, breathwork in the cardón forest, and slow farm-to-table meals. Named for the Yoruba goddess of fresh water and feminine power, hosted by Mariela Acosta since 2019.
Each retreat at Ochuna in Baja moves through six daily rhythms. You arrive carrying whatever you carry. The ocean, the mat, the bowl and the circle do the rest. Nothing is forced. Every offering is invitational and held by women who have walked this coast for years.
Two daily sessions on the gentle Pacific point breaks of Cerritos and Pescadero with our all-women coaching team. Soft-top boards, ankle leashes, and a 1-to-3 coach ratio so first-timers get hands-on guidance and intermediate paddlers get line-up confidence. Boards, rashguards and reef-safe sunscreen are included.
Every morning at 6:45 the bell rings on the open-air palapa overlooking the dunes. Slow, warming vinyasa and yin sequences led by Mariela and visiting teachers. We move barefoot on handwoven petates, bookended by pranayama and a long, quiet savasana with the sound of the waves rolling in below.
On three of the seven evenings we close the day with a sound bath under the open sky. Crystal and Tibetan bowls, ocean drum, koshi chimes and the occasional voice of a guest curandera from La Paz. You lie on a thick blanket, the desert cools, and the frequencies do their slow, patient work.
Two intentional breathwork journeys per retreat held in the shaded cardón grove behind the casa. Conscious connected breathing in a soft, well-paced format suitable for beginners. Always optional. Always followed by a long hammock rest, fresh agua de Jamaica and integration time on the porch.
Three evening circles on the patio around a hand-poured candle and a bowl of sea water from the shore. We pass a feather, listen long, and speak only when the feather lands. Circles are confidential, warm, and held with simple Lucumí-honoring rituals that Mariela learned from her Cuban grandmother.
Three full meals each day from our kitchen, sourced inside a 40-kilometer radius. Heirloom tomatoes from El Pescadero, queso fresco from a family ranch in El Triunfo, line-caught dorado, hand-pressed corn tortillas, papaya from the orchard out back. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free menus on request.
Twelve women per circle. Spots tend to fill 4–6 months in advance. Investment includes all lodging, meals, instruction, equipment, ground transport from SJD airport, and the full ceremony and circle program. Flights and travel insurance are not included.

I am Mariela. I was born in Hialeah to parents who left Cuba in 1980, raised on my abuela's stories of Ochún and the Cuban orishas, and shaped quietly by the Atlantic before I ever stepped on a surfboard. I started teaching yoga in 2012 in Miami, then trained again in Mysore, then in Oaxaca. I came to Baja for a single February in 2017 and never quite left.
Ochuna in Baja was born in the spring of 2019 from one simple observation: the women who came here for surf needed yoga, the women who came for yoga needed the ocean, and all of us needed sisterhood and a kitchen full of real food. I rented a casa, invited eleven friends, set my abuela's honey jar on the table, and we have been doing it ever since.
Every retreat I host is held with a hand on the lineage I come from and a hand on this bright, warm, living desert coast that took me in. Ochuna in Baja is not a brand, it is a small community of women, a casa, and a calendar of returning gatherings. We'd love to have you.
One investment, one casa, one rhythm. Below is everything that is wrapped into your retreat fee.
Shared queen room, private room or twin-share. All linens, ocean-view porches and full use of the open kitchen, hammock garden and outdoor showers.

Mid-week excursion into the Pueblo Mágico of Todos Santos with a guided artisan walk, lunch at our favorite garden cantina, and free time.
The exact schedule shifts with the swell and the moon, but every 7-day retreat moves through these seven gentle phases.

A six-bedroom Mexican casa set on a quiet stretch of Pacific dune four kilometers north of Todos Santos. Adobe walls, palm-shaded patios, an open-air yoga palapa, a saltwater plunge pool, and the ocean a 90-second barefoot walk from the front gate.
Every woman who has come through Ochuna in Baja has arrived for a different reason. Here are three.
I booked Ochuna in Baja four months after my divorce was finalized, alone, and frankly afraid. By day three I was paddling into my first green wave at Cerritos with three other women cheering for me from the channel. Mariela and her team held the room without ever performing wisdom at us. The food was beyond. The casa felt like a soft place to land. I came home different in the best, quietest way.
Six of us flew down together for the Solstice Swell week. We've been friends since college and all turned 35 the same year and wanted something bigger than another bachelorette. Ochuna was exactly right. The surf coaches were unreal, the sound baths cracked us open in a way none of us expected, and the long table dinners turned into the best photos any of us own. We're already planning to come back as a group of twelve.
I had never surfed in my life and I'm 41. I was sure I was going to be the worst person in the water, and instead I had Mariela and Coach Rosa walking me into the white water on day one and on a real wave by day four. I cried in two of the circles, in the best way. The breathwork was a revelation. The casa is gorgeous but the women are the reason I'm booking the November retreat before this review even publishes.
If anything is missing here, reach out at hola@ochunainbaja.net and we'll answer the same week.
More than okay — about 60% of every retreat are first-time surfers. Cerritos and Pescadero are forgiving point breaks with sandy bottoms, and our 1-to-3 coach ratio means you get hands-on guidance every session.
No prior practice required. Sunrise vinyasa is offered at gentle, moderate and stronger variations and yin yoga is offered every evening for full rest. Bring whatever body you have arrived with.
Yes — every Ochuna in Baja gathering is for women only. The casa, the circles, the surf coaching team and the kitchen are all women-led from welcome to closing brunch.
Fly into San José del Cabo (SJD). We provide round-trip shared shuttle service on retreat arrival and departure days, included in your fee. The drive to Todos Santos is about 65 minutes.
Deposits are 30% and non-refundable but fully transferable to a future retreat or another woman. Balances are due 60 days before arrival and 50% refundable up to 45 days out, after which they are non-refundable. We strongly recommend travel insurance.
Yes. We routinely cook vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and pescatarian menus. List allergies and preferences on your application and Lupita will design your week's menu around them.
Absolutely — many sisters come as pairs or small groups. We can hold adjacent rooms for friends booking together. Just note both names on your applications and we'll coordinate.
A single welcome glass of mezcal or hibiscus shrub is offered on arrival night and at the closing brunch. Beyond that, retreats are alcohol-free by design. Bringing your own is welcome and respectfully discouraged.
Days are 75–85 F (24–29 C) most of the season, water is 68–78 F (20–25 C). Evenings can be surprisingly cool October through April, in the low 60s F (16 C). Bring one layer for nights.
U.S., Canadian and most EU citizens can enter Mexico for tourism for up to 180 days with a valid passport. Always confirm current entry requirements with your home country's consulate before booking flights.
Many sisters do. We're happy to recommend small hotels and casas in Todos Santos and La Paz for the days before or after your retreat. We do not, however, host pre-night or post-night stays at Casa Ochún itself.
We welcome women in the second trimester provided you are cleared to travel by your own physician and you are comfortable opting out of breathwork and active surf days. Please write ahead so we can plan thoughtfully with you.
Yes. We offer formal gift retreat certificates and will work with you on a gentle, surprise- friendly handoff. Email hola@ochunainbaja.net with the subject line "Gift Retreat" for full details.
Plenty. Beach time at Playa La Cachora, the Charles Stewart Gallery, the small bookshop on Calle Centenario, and a quiet garden bench in the Hotel California courtyard are all within walking distance of the lunch spot. We never plan a shopping-only town day.
Most retreats fill 4–6 months ahead. The Lineage week (8 spots) typically fills 9 months ahead. Spring Tide and Cardón Quiet sometimes have last-minute openings 30 days out. Apply early.
We do not chase press, but a few editors have written about us over the years. Here are the ones we've been proudest to be included in.
"A retreat of unusual quiet, run by a woman who clearly grew up in a real Cuban kitchen and who has built something honest on the Pacific coast of Baja Sur."
"Twelve women, six bedrooms, and a kitchen that turns out three real meals a day. Ochuna in Baja is the women's surf retreat we keep recommending to friends."
"Coach Rosa Marín is the kind of patient, line-up-savvy local who turns first-time paddlers into honest surfers in a week. Worth the trip alone."
"A small, hand-built retreat that feels like a friend's casa rather than a brand. Mariela's honey-jar lineage and Lupita's table are the soul of it."
"Ochuna en Baja: el retiro femenino que celebra a Ochún sin caer en el cliché — comida real, olas reales, círculo real."
"A women's surf retreat that doesn't flinch from the soft, slow, deeply uncool work of actually being in community. Hard to find. Worth booking early."
Every Ochuna in Baja retreat is led by a small, returning team of women. The same coaches in the water week after week, the same kitchen, the same hands building the altar. Continuity is the quiet luxury we offer.
Cuban-American, RYT-500, trained in Mysore, Oaxaca and a decade of teaching in Miami before Baja claimed her in 2017. Mariela leads the morning vinyasa, two of the three sisterhood circles, and the closing brunch. She also reads every application personally.
Born in Pescadero, surfing since she was seven, ISA-certified surf instructor and a longtime fixture in the Baja women's longboard scene. Rosa runs the in-water coaching team and the Cerritos sessions. She has the patience of a saint and the read on a wave of a fox.
A Todos Santos chef who trained under chef Iliana de la Vega and runs our kitchen all season. Lupita designs your menu around the local market and your dietary notes. Her papaya-with-lime breakfast plate has its own following.
Mariela's long-time teacher, a Lucumí elder from Matanzas now living in La Paz. Yvelisse leads the sound bath evenings on select retreats and holds the lineage rituals on the Ochún's Honey and Día de las Madres weeks.
A Mexico-City-trained breathwork facilitator and yin yoga teacher who joins us five months out of the year. Nadia leads the two breathwork journeys and the evening yin sessions. Calm, grounded, deeply experienced with first-timers.
Lupita's aunt, the woman who keeps Casa Ochún humming. She runs the laundry, the linens, the fresh flowers on every nightstand and the bowls of mango at every doorway. The casa is her house first, our retreat second.
In the Yoruba tradition carried across the Atlantic by enslaved Africans to Cuba, Ochún is the orisha of fresh river water, of honey, of yellow gold and copper, of sweetness, of self-worth, of the slow, undeniable power of women in community. She is invoked when a body of water meets a body of woman. She is, in our tradition, not a deity to convert to but a presence to honor and learn from.
When I first walked the Pacific shore at Todos Santos, the river meeting the salt water at La Cachora reminded me viscerally of my abuela's honey jar and her quiet altar in our Hialeah kitchen. The name "Ochuna in Baja" came to me there, in the river-mouth wind. We borrow it with reverence and not as costume.
You do not need to be Cuban, Yoruba, or initiated in any tradition to be welcome here. You only need to bring respect for the lineage that gives this casa its name and a willingness to sit beside other women in honest sisterhood. The altar in the kitchen is small, the honey jar is real, and the rest is yours to take or leave.
This is everything you actually need to bring. The casa fills in the gaps.
Surf-friendly one-pieces, sport bikinis, or a full-coverage rash bottom you trust. We provide rashguards in every size.
The Pacific evenings drop into the low 60s F (16 C) October through April. A long-sleeve cotton shirt and a wrap go a long way.
Birkenstocks or huarache sandals for around the casa, plus one closed-toe shoe for the cardón hike if you choose to come on the desert morning.
We provide reef-safe sunscreen for everyone in the water, but bringing your favorite is welcome. Please leave oxybenzone and octinoxate brands at home.
The casa runs on filtered water at every tap and every dispenser. A 1L bottle is your friend on the porch and in the van.
Optional but most sisters end up wanting one by night two. The casa stocks a few unbound paper booklets for those who didn't bring one.
Pharmacy access in Todos Santos is fine but limited. Bring whatever you need for the full week plus three buffer days.
We strongly recommend comprehensive travel insurance. Forward your policy to hola@ochunainbaja.net before arrival so we have it on file.
We host on a working desert coast that is older and more fragile than any retreat. Here is the list of small, real commitments Ochuna in Baja has lived by since 2019.
Every sunscreen and lip balm in the water at our retreats is mineral, oxybenzone-free and biodegradable. The Pacific is healthier when our sisters paddle out clean.
Every meal that leaves Lupita's kitchen was sourced inside a 40-kilometer radius. Eggs from El Pescadero. Greens from a small organic farm a 15-minute drive north. Fish from the Punta Lobos cooperative.
Casa Ochún is 70% solar-powered, captures all kitchen greywater for the garden, and is on the local rainwater catchment plan. We compost all kitchen scraps to the cardón orchard.
Every member of the team is from Baja California Sur and is paid a fair Mexican-peso wage well above the regional retreat-industry average. Tips left at the casa are pooled equally among the entire team, kitchen and shuttle drivers included.
One percent of every retreat fee is donated to Casa Hogar Niñas de Cabo, a local home for girls in San José del Cabo. We share the donation log with every guest in the closing email.
Twelve women maximum, eight on the Lineage week. We will never grow into a 30-woman model. The casa, the coast and our sense of what a retreat ought to feel like cannot hold more than twelve.
Most women who write to Ochuna in Baja are juggling the same handful of questions before they decide. Will I be the only beginner? Will I have to share a room? What happens if the surf is flat that week? What does "sisterhood circle" actually feel like, and is it the kind of thing I'll want to leave halfway through? I want to answer those questions plainly, without retreat- industry gloss, before you fill out the application.
On any given retreat, roughly six out of twelve sisters are first-time surfers. Another three or four have surfed two to ten times in their life. The remaining handful are intermediates. Our coaching team and the line-up at Cerritos are built for exactly this distribution. You will not be the only beginner, and if you are an intermediate paddler, you will be in good company on the green-wave days at Pescadero. Either way, you will not be left to figure it out on your own.
On rooming: at booking you choose private, twin-share, or queen-share. Private is the most expensive option and accounts for about a third of bookings. Twin-share rooms house two friends or two solo travelers paired by us with care, and they are the most popular choice. Queen-share is for two people who already know each other. Bathrooms are en-suite in four of the six bedrooms and shared between two rooms in the remaining two.
On flat days: the Pacific does, occasionally, go small. When that happens, the schedule simply rebalances toward longer yoga, an extra desert hike, an additional sound bath, or a quieter town day. We don't pretend a flat day is a swell day, and we don't pad the schedule with things we wouldn't otherwise offer. The casa is not a content factory. Sometimes the most honest day of the week is the one with two long meals and an afternoon of hammock reading.
On sisterhood circles: we hold three of them per 7-day retreat and they are the most-cited element of the post-retreat survey. They are not workshops, they are not lectures, and they are not theatrical. We sit on cushions on the patio, light one candle, set out a bowl of ocean water, and pass a feather. The woman holding the feather speaks. Everyone else listens quietly. There is no requirement to share. Most women, by circle two, do.
On the food: Lupita is a real chef and the meals are real meals. Long table, generous portions, three courses at dinner, fresh tortillas at every breakfast, real coffee. We accommodate every dietary need we have ever been asked to accommodate, and we plan around allergies seriously. Hungry is not a state we put guests in.
On phones: we do not ban them. We do ask, in the welcome circle, that you keep them out of your hands during yoga, surf, sound baths, breathwork and meals. Most sisters end up choosing their own phone-light practice for the week without us prescribing one. The casa Wi-Fi is fine. The signal is patchy. The river outside the gate is louder.
On what kind of woman tends to come: the demographic skews 30-to-55, but every retreat has at least two women in their 20s and one in her 60s. Solo travelers, friends-pairs, occasional mother-daughter pairs, milestone-marking groups (35th birthdays, post-divorce, post-graduate- school, post-treatment, pre-baby). Backgrounds across the board. Income levels mostly upper middle — we are not the cheapest retreat in Baja and we are not trying to be. What seems to matter most is a willingness to show up.
That's the long letter. The application is below. If anything in here gave you pause or made you want to ask a more specific question, please write directly to me at hola@ochunainbaja.net and I will answer the same week, by hand, the same way I've been doing it since 2019.
— Mariela
Optional, gentle, and cumulatively the difference between a transformative week and an excellent vacation. None of them require anything you don't already have at home.
One paragraph in a notebook. What are you hoping to set down at this casa, and what are you hoping to pick up? You will not be asked to share it. We just find that the women who arrive having quietly written something show up softer.
A walk, a swim, a stretch on the floor. Twice in the seven days before you arrive, just to remind your body it is welcome. We are not asking for a fitness program, only an honest re-acquaintance.
Tell a friend, a sister, a partner that you are going. That you booked. That you are nervous or excited or both. The simple act of declaring out loud that you have given yourself this week shifts something quietly in your nervous system before you even land in SJD.
Applications are reviewed by Mariela personally within 3 business days. There is no fee to apply.
Booking inquiries, dietary questions, group bookings, gift retreats — we read every note that comes in.
