Zihuatanejo (Zee-WA for short) is one of the most magical corners of Mexico located on the mountainous, lush Pacific coast. It is a fishing village steeped in local culture; warm, walkable, welcoming, and deeply soulful…not your typical resort town.

And Camp Joy Zihuatanejo isn’t your typical retreat. It’s a mid-winter reset designed for women who feel stretched thin emotionally, mentally, or physically and need a deliberate pause. The curated experiences give you the chance to explore every part of this stunning town, have a lot of fun, and deepen connections along the way.

February can feel heavy. The grey. The fatigue. The quiet slide toward burnout. Camp Joy Zihua was created to interrupt that cycle!

A Warm-Weather Reset When You Need It Most

Sunshine in February is medicine. Warmth on your skin, blue sky, and ocean breeze calm your nervous system the moment you arrive. In Zihua, the environment itself helps you soften, breathe, and come back to yourself.

Slow Mornings That Restore You

The joy of the first morning coffee with new friends

Here, you wake gently: sunlight, coffee on the terrace, quiet reflection, a simple Inner Joy Ritual, a walk on the beach. Your choice.

No urgency. No pressure.

Inner Joy, Real Connection

Camp Joy is not surface-level self-care. The Inner Joy Workshops foster honest conversations, reflection, and meaningful inner work. This is a sanctuary where women soften, speak truth, and reconnect with self and with each other without performance or pressure. Friendships built here last well beyond the retreat.

"Camp Joy is unlike any other retreat. It perfectly balances everything we as women deeply desire but rarely even identify—let alone allow ourselves to pursue. Monique and Marea have masterfully curated a magical week that profoundly changed my life, not only through unforgettable experiences but through priceless conversations and activities preparing me to reenter the world as my truest self. I've been reborn and now have 13 new lifelong friendships, including their incredible team." Cotignac Camper

As always at Camp Joy, nothing is mandatory. Join in as much or as little as you choose. Your joy, your way.

The Feeling You Take Home

What stays with you is how you feel afterward: lighter, connected, restored. Stress softens. Your spark returns. You reconnect with who you are and what you need. You return home with a plan and a community to stay in the joy.

"After Camp Joy, I feel lighter, freer, and fully present, able now to embrace the abundance of joy and love that live in each moment—a luxury I previously denied myself under a fundamental misunderstanding of discipline. Could I have found this at any retreat? Simply put, no." Cotignac Camper

Zihua Is Simply the Place Where It Happens

You don’t come just for palm trees or perfect sunsets. You come for the transformation, the emotional spaciousness, the renewed energy, the sense of connection. Zihua is where all of that begins.

Your February could feel different. You could feel different. And that difference might change your life… for the better.

Warmly,

Marea & Monique
