Vida Sana was born through the desire to create immersive retreat experiences for guests hailing from around the world, to join together and experience the magic and beauty of Mexico.

Bringing together an experienced team of highly experienced facilitators to support our guests on their wellness journey, Vida Sana Retreats offers a selection of activities and practices, to elevate guests to a higher level of health and self-connection.

Our retreat experiences are designed for those seeking a change in their lives, whether it is to heal, to reset, to discover themselves or to experience breakthroughs which will lead them on a renewed life path.

Vida Sana retreats are led by our founder Melanie Sands, who has been leading and assisting at wellness retreats since 2010. With a background in naturopathic nutrition, outdoor leadership, holistic therapies and tourism management, as well as being the owner of a successful juice detox company, Melanie has led retreats in Australia, Bali, Europe and now Mexico, and she brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to her guests.
