8-Day Jungle Fitness & Ice Bath Reset in Palenque, Mexico

The retreat runs for eight days and seven nights at Villas Adriana Wellness Village, a family-run property with twelve rustic rooms set into the jungle. You're three kilometers from the Palenque archaeological site, and from some rooms you can see the Temple of King Pakal through the canopy. The property has a pool, a garden, a restaurant, and plenty of green space. It's not a luxury resort—there are birds at 5 am and lizards on the walls—but that's exactly why it works.

A typical day starts early, around 6 am, with movement, mobility, or breathwork, followed by breakfast. Mid-morning is the main session: training, strength work, or a recovery block. Lunch is together around 1:30 pm, and afternoons are yours—waterfalls, the ruins, jungle trails, the pool, or doing absolutely nothing. Evenings are quiet, with breathwork, meditation, or temazcal, and then sleep that actually happens. Every session is optional; you can skip anything without explanation.

What makes this different from other retreats is the coaching. José Luis isn't a wellness brand with hired instructors; he's the coach in every session, adjusting the work to your energy, level, and what you're trying to fix. Most guests have never trained seriously, and that's fine. The retreat is designed to bring you down from high alert and then build you back stronger, with a focus on the nervous system: breathwork to change your state on purpose, cold exposure to practice staying calm, and strength work to raise your ceiling.

The location is a real part of the experience. Palenque sits on the natural route between San Cristóbal de las Casas and the Yucatán, so it's an easy stop mid-trip or a final reset before flying home. There's no resort strip, no beach clubs, no scene to perform for—just the jungle, the ruins, and the waterfalls. After you leave, José Luis offers 90 days of remote coaching to help you keep the practice going at home.
