Accommodations

Welcome to Chacala, the crown jewel of the Riviera Nayarit. Nestled in a pristine bay, this coastal paradise enchants with golden sands, turquoise waters, and lush beauty. Just 90 minutes south of Puerto Vallarta Airport, it feels worlds away. Discover the town’s charm, from relaxed living to thrilling activities like hiking and boating. Unwind on the beach, embraced by coconut trees and palapa restaurants. Immerse yourself in Chacala’s warm and welcoming spirit for an idyllic travel experience.

Mer has practiced yoga and the healing arts since she was 16. She is a healer, dancer, songbird, and owner of Embra Studios. Her practice has been influenced by the Sri Vidya lineage or Tantra and a wide range of teachers from Ana Forrest and Shiva Rae to Alberto Villoldo. 

Her style is fluid and strong and allows space for spiritual access. She creates a steady groove through breath and beats, where one can dissolve into the field of oneness while meeting their own unique needs. Along, together. 

Alyssa is a yoga instructor and registered nurse, seamlessly integrating her roles as teacher, healer, and the owner of Tortuga Yoga School. With over two decades of experience, Alyssa’s journey is marked by a commitment to personal and professional growth. Her practice combines the fluidity of vinyasa flow, the grounding presence of hatha yoga, and the dynamic energy of rocket yoga, enriched by certifications in yoga nidra, Ayurvedic nutrition, and her Level I Reiki practitioner training.

Her dual background brings a unique blend of compassion and expertise to her teaching, reflecting her belief in the harmony of mind, body, and soul. Alyssa’s approach is a powerful reminder of our interconnectedness, guiding her students toward a balanced, strong, and harmonious state of well-being.

Travel Insurance

We cannot emphasize more the importance of travel insurance. As we all know, especially as travelers, “life happens.” Whether it’s family, work, mother nature, or a change of heart, it is important to be prepared in case you need to unexpectedly change your travel plans. Often for less than $150, you can purchase a travel insurance policy and be protected in the event that you need to make a change or need to be covered financially prior to or during your trip. 

We have partnered with two insurance companies: Trawick International and CSA Travel Insurance (available for U.S. Residents only). 

Read more about our insurance partners and their policies here. We encourage you to research the insurance company and policy that best meets your needs.
