Santo Tomas Retreats

Santo Tomas, is where Santo Tomas Retreats began over 9 years ago. These beachfront retreats are designed to refresh and rejuvenate in a unique and stunning sanctuary surrounded by the beautiful Sea of Cortez, a pristine sandy beach, rolling sand dunes and the lush Sonoran Desert. Come to unwind and learn, to find strength and balance, and to join with others in a quest for well-being. Leave connected, refreshed and inspired.
These retreats includes beach front accommodations, daily yoga, paddle boarding or kayaking, delicious vegan/plant based cuisine for all meals, cooking demos, beach bonfires, one 60 minute massage, horseback riding and local vineyard tour and wine tasting.

Hanna Hinze and Erin Lowe grew up in Arizona with Santo Tomas, Mexico as a home away from home since birth. Santo Tomas – a little piece of Heaven on Earth is 2.5 miles of beachfront property (3,500 acres) that their grandmother Paulina, lovingly called “Mamachita,” acquired nearly 60 years ago.
The beautiful legacy, vision, and community known as Santo Tomás began over 60 years ago with Erin & Hanna’s maternal grandparents, a beautiful young couple named Paulina and Bob. They had a dream to build a ranch and farming community along the breathtaking coasts of the Sea of Cortez. In the early 1960’s, Paulina’s father, Francisco was awarded some land rights by the Mexican Government because of his participation in the Mexican Revolution of 1910. Francisco gave Paulina and Bob the beach front property that is in the area of Desemboque (the delta) where the Rio Acencion enters the Sea of Cortez.
