I know Tom from Minneapolis and was surprised to contact Present Moments and learn that he is one of the founders. I was thrilled with my trip. It was comfortable, beautiful, friendly, great food, fun activities, everything I was hoping for and more. I highly recommend Present Moments to anyone needing to relax, for romance, for family, for friends, for fun. Wonderful.

Present Moment Retreat is located in a beautiful place at the pacific coast directly on the beach. The rooms are little cottages tastefully decorated with antique furniture and modern art, and are impeccably clean. As they have open palm leaf roofs, you hear the pacific ocean while falling asleep.

Yoga classes as well as adventure trips and massages are perfectly organized and of high quality. The restaurant is located in the perfect spot for watching the sunset while having a drink chosen from the well selected wine and spirits list.

Prices are high, but the place is absolutely worth it. However, it may be advisable to check prices and what is and is not included in a package, to avoid heart attacks at checkout.

In a nutshell: If you want to relax and be active in luxury and nature, this is the perfect place.

I stayed at Present Moment three times during 2011 and loved every minute of it. This breathtaking place holds an extremely special place in my heart. The first visit was in January and was with my sister and mother. There was something for everyone...yoga & meditation & massage for me and the beach and margaritas for them....well & me too :) I went back solo in May and had another absolutely amazing time. Everyone there makes it a special and beautiful experience, the food is amazing, yoga and massages and even sleeping with the sound of the ocean constantly in the background...it's perfection. The third time was for the yoga teacher training that was held in October and it offered yet another profoundly life-changing experience. If you have any desire to teach or just deepen your own practice and life, i highly recommend the program!! Present Moment is truly a uniquely precious place that I am so blessed came into my life and I plan to visit again soon and often!!!

My husband and I have just returned from our week at Present Moment.
As a yoga teacher, I know not to have expectations that could easily derail you. This place left us having every expectation we could have ever imagined.
We arrived at the retreat thinking we would have a much needed rest after a recent move as well as a break from parenting our 3 boys.
From the moment CJ welcomed us with her Samadhi scent and warm hug, we were infused with spirit and grace.
Every moment in the sanctuary at Present Moment was paradise. We have nothing but glowing reviews..in fact, we are having a hard time sharing this new found dream as we would hate to see it booked up when we plan to return.
The yoga classes were truly the most inspiring ones I have taken in a long while. Endless length of classes, outstanding attention, beautiful spirit and gorgeous scenery all created classes of pure withdrawal from the senses.
Time totally stood still for us both.
The Massages and wellness counselling sessions that came with our package were tranformational as well. I had the best massage of my life....opened me up to find tears that needed to be released and a body reaction that was indeed healing.
The staff at the restaurants were wonderfully attentive and brought a sense of joy to every meal. The quality of the food was outstanding by mexican standards....and on par with what I would expect at home...the guacamole was the best we have ever had...daily doses kept us delighted. Well worth the higher prices.
We were celebrating my husband's birthday while we were there and CJ, the owner, helped to create a surprise meal by the ocean at a private table for 2. My husband was delighted...I was too and the desert they gifted us was chocolate heaven.
Sunsets, quiet beaches at your doorstep, delicious yoga, wonderful smiles all around and dreamy sleeps with the sounds of the ocean waves that rocked us to sleep was the perfect week for us both. In a word, profound! We came home truly transformed and ready to embrace the next journey of our life.....thank you CJ, Tom and your gorgeous family of staff for creating Present Moments that will stay with us forever. Hugs from Elana and David.

I cannot say enough good things about this place. The people are so warm and sincere. Seriously words cannot describe the beauty of the place, the sound, the staff and the food. It is definitely unlike any other place I've been to. The spa treatments were amazing. I can honestly say I believe I had an out of body experience. The food is great. Healthy never tasted sooo good.

I highly recommend this retreat and if you love someone (sister, best friend, husband, boyfriend) you will want them to experience this place - the total relaxation and "unplugging" only this place can provide.
