Suspension Yoga™ Escape
Unwind to the Rhythm of the Coast
Welcome to Rancho Relaxo
During the Summer season, Rancho Relaxo will be open for a small number of self-styled retreat stays.
If you have been feeling the pull to step away for a while – the need to rest and reset into a quieter rhythm, this space is here for you.
The Experience
These retreats are simple by design – just come as you are. There’s no set schedule.
You’re free to shape your days as you wish—slow mornings, time outdoors, private moments of stillness, or a gentle structure if that’s what’s needed.
I’ll be on hand to support you where it feels helpful—otherwise, the space is all yours
The Setting
Rancho Relaxo is a lovingly preserved 19th–century property where character and simplicity meet. Weathered wood, open fields, woods, and quiet corners create space to rest and reflect. A place where mornings arrive gently and evenings stretch a little longer—best spent outside, snuggled in a blanket by a fire, watching the light fade and a multitude of stars appear.
The property holds its own rhythm – nothing is hurried. And nothing needs to be.
Your Stay
Retreat spaces are available from early summer into early fall, with a minimum stay of four nights. (You are welcome to stay a little longer if time permits)
Cost: $595 CAD ($135 each additional night)
What’s Included:
- 4 nights’ accommodations
- Welcome dinner of fresh lobster
- Daily yoga (Suspension or mat)
- Healthy breakfasts
- Complimentary bikes
- Essential toiletries & blow dryers
- Full access to the property
For the rest of your meals, you’re free to follow your own rhythm.
Saint Andrews offers a wonderful range of places for lunch and dinner, along with a well-stocked grocer and a gourmet food shop if you prefer to prepare something yourself. You’re welcome to use the kitchen at any time, and there’s a barbecue on-site.
If you like, you can plan a meal or 2 together with your party — everyone can create a favourite dish. It’s an easy, relaxed way to connect.
Additional Options: (please email for prices)
- Whale watching
- Nordic Spa
- Massage therapy
- Guided outings
Getting Here
Some guests like to make a road trip part of the experience.
If you’re driving, I’m happy to share directions to make things easy.
If you’re flying, the closest airport is Saint John Airport, and I can arrange pick-up and return.
Transfers are $150 per person (up to three guests), with space for larger groups, so the cost can be shared.
A Few Practical Notes
Rancho Relaxo is also home to three young Mexican rescue cats. They’re friendly, curious, and very much part of the house. If you have allergies, it’s something to keep in mind.
If you’re interested in booking, just send me an email with your preferred dates and I’ll take care of the rest. These retreats aren’t booked online—they’re arranged directly, so we can shape the stay in a way that suits you.
And if you’re simply looking for a quiet visit on your own, you’re always welcome to explore my Airbnb listing for a single room—or reach out if you’d like help creating something more tailored.
An Invitation
This is an open, flexible retreat. You don’t need to prepare or arrive in any particular way.
Just come, settle in and unwind to the rhythm of the coast.
What others say about our retreats…
No pressure, No Stress. No hard and fast schedules. Roll with it and enjoy the retreat. It was like spending a week with close friends whose company you really enjoy.
Trixie and John went above and beyond to make sure our visit to The Flying Yogi Merida retreat centre was a happy one.
The meals were well thought out and healthy, and the yoga was top notch. Every excursion was interesting and informed us about the history and sights of the area.
The Flying Yogi or the Azores?
We’ll probably visit the Azores some day but this time around we certainly made the right decision choosing to spend a week at the Flying Yogi. I highly recommend it!
This was definitely one of the best vacations in my entire life.
A variety of yoga, not only suspension yoga. Best teacher ever. Healthy and delicious breakfasts and lunches. Accommodation spotless and comfortable. Amazing outings. Whole thing did me the world of good.
Trixie and John rose above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of.
Everything, was truly amazing. Truly speechless.
For a retreat that just currently open, it was amazing. Wow !
Beautiful memories made from this retreat.
The retreat setting and accommodation was very unique. Loved the tranquillity there. I really enjoyed the Suspension Yoga sessions and it was great having ‘local’ tour guides to take us to off-the-beaten-paths to enjoy the authenticity of this beautiful part of Mexico.
The atmosphere that Trixie and John created was very welcoming, warm and relaxed.
