Adventure without pressure
Enough movement to wake you up, enough softness to help you feel rested.
Siargao Retreat 2026
Come for the island. Leave with more of yourself.
Six women. One villa. A week of honest workshops, island days, rooftop dinners, brave little yeses, and enough space to hear yourself again.
17-23 August 2026
6 nights / 7 days
6 women only
La Luna Villa
Siargao, Philippines
A week that feels like...
salty hair, rooftop yoga, a surf lesson, shared meals, proper laughs, and the kind of support that makes getting outside your comfort zone feel possible.
Who this is for
For the woman who knows something is ready to move.
The retreat has structure, yes, but it starts with recognition: you are not broken, you are not being dramatic, and you do not need a full life crisis to deserve a week that helps you hear yourself again.
02
Conversations that linger
The kind you keep replaying later because something about them cracked a door open.
03
Beauty with substance
It is gorgeous, yes. It is also designed to actually shift something in you.
04
Better stories waiting
Maybe clarity. Maybe courage. Maybe a decision. Definitely a story worth having lived.
You might be here if
If life feels a bit too loud lately.
- You are not falling apart, but you know something needs to shift.
- You have been craving new people, new scenery, and a proper reset.
- You feel somewhere in-between: not who you were, not fully who you are becoming yet.
What changes
You leave with a little more direction.
- A clearer sense of what is draining you, what matters, and what you are ready to stop tolerating.
- A next-chapter vision that feels honest, not copied from someone else's life.
- A simple 90-day direction, new memories, and proof that you can still surprise yourself.
The vision board
A little vision board.
Photos, behind-the-scenes moments, island texture, La Luna Villa corners, and the bits that make the whole thing feel alive before you even arrive.
ACZ works best when the deeper parts and the joyful parts get to sit in the same room together.

The week
A preview of how the days unfold.
The exact flow can shift a little with weather, tides, and what feels right for the group, but this is the spirit of the week.

Airport pick-up, welcome coconuts, settling in, softening the awkwardness, and a first dinner together.

The first ACZ workshop. Honest reflection, a life audit, and the start of naming what is really going on.

See you later
A slow last morning, a final breakfast, airport drop-offs, and the strange tenderness of going home a little different.

Breathing room
Not every hour is scheduled, on purpose. There is rest, solo time, journaling time, and room to just be on the island.
- Pool time
- Solo moments
- Space to process
Sample day
One day might feel like this.
Not because we are trying to over-schedule the whole thing, but because it helps to picture the rhythm: enough structure to hold the week, enough looseness to let it breathe.
Morning
Rooftop yoga, breakfast at the villa, and the kind of workshop conversation that lands because everyone is finally warm enough to be real.
Middle of the day
A long lunch somewhere beautiful, sea air, island movement, and that subtle feeling that your body is catching up to what your mind just realised.
Afternoon
Swim, surf, free time, journaling, pool, nap, beach, or simply staring into space for once without guilt.
Evening
Sunset, dinner, more conversation, and one of those shared-table nights that somehow becomes part of the reason you came.
La Luna Villa, Catangnan · your home base for the week
The villa
La Luna Villa is part of the experience.
La Luna Villa is a direct effect of the promise LuLu made to herself ten years ago: to stop waiting for life to feel convenient before choosing the bigger, braver version of it.
This is not a random hotel we borrowed for the week. It is a real home base built from that promise, which means the retreat begins with a different kind of energy: personal, intentional, and already connected to the ACZ story.
Women only
Shared rooms

Pool + common spaces

Where you'll sleep
Three rooms, six women, no anonymous hotel feeling.
La Luna Villa has one ensuite room and two shared-bathroom rooms for the retreat. Every room is shared with one other woman only, so it stays intimate without feeling crowded.
Mayari · Shared ensuite
Mayari
Shared with one woman only. The room with a comfortable private bathroom, plus a private lookout balcony over the coconut forest. This is usually the one that gets booked first.
Early bird from €999 Book my bed
Hanan · Shared bathroom
Hanan
Shared with one woman only. The room that starts your day before you do. It is east-facing with bright mornings. Hanan and Tala share one bathroom, with an extra villa toilet and two outdoor showers.

Tala · Shared bathroom
Tala
Shared with one woman only. The room that ends the day well with its sunset facing. Warm light, and calm energy. Hanan and Tala share one bathroom, with an extra villa toilet and two outdoor showers.

Meet LuLu
Your host for the week.
LuLu is the founder of Adios Comfort Zone and the human behind La Luna Villa. She has hosted, co-hosted, coordinated, and supported rooms across retreats, workshops, community events, and weird little life-crossroads moments where people need warmth and structure at the same time.
On this retreat, her job is to hold the week, guide the ACZ workshops, make the awkward bits feel easier, and create the kind of room where women can be honest without feeling like they have to perform a breakthrough on command.

FAQ
The questions people usually ask before saying yes.
We can make these more Philippines-specific later, but here is the right structure ready to go.
If something is shifting and you can feel it but have not quite named it yet, this is probably for you. You do not need answers. You just need to be willing to show up and look at things honestly.
You will get your confirmation, then an onboarding invitation with everything you need to know before you arrive. Nothing will be left hanging.
Flights and travel insurance are not included. Fly into Siargao, Sayak Airport, code IAO, with connections via Manila or Cebu. Airport pickup is arranged from there.
Many nationalities can enter the Philippines visa-free for up to 30 days. Please check what applies to your passport before booking. No vaccines are mandatory for entry, but some countries recommend travel vaccines such as hepatitis B or tetanus boosters depending on your history, so check current travel guidance for your country closer to departure.
Yes, and we mean it. Flights, medical care, and personal travel arrangements are your responsibility. Get coverage that includes medical. It matters more than you think until you need it.
Yes. This is your week to step back from your usual environment and the people in it. You will be arriving into a small group of six women, with support throughout. Solo arrivals are the norm here, not the exception.
We recommend arriving on the retreat start date by 1pm, because that is when airport pickup is arranged. If you are arriving earlier, just let us know and we will adjust your transfer. Staying on after? An optional drop-off can be arranged on departure day or later.
Siargao is a relaxed, well-travelled island and a popular destination for solo female travellers. Like anywhere unfamiliar, move with awareness, especially at night. You will also receive a short island guide during onboarding to help you settle in and get around.
No. Movement sessions are optional and there to support you, not challenge your fitness.
You can bring your devices. We would gently encourage you to step away from work where possible, because you will get more out of the week if you do. During sessions we use the ACZ Guidebook, designed to help you think clearly and stay present.
Of course. Step back whenever you need to. We just ask that you let LuLu know in advance so the day can be held well for everyone.
Yes, and it is built in on purpose. Time to integrate, rest, wander, or just be on the island without an agenda.
Wi-Fi is available throughout the villa, though island connections can be slower than you are used to. A local SIM or eSIM is easy to sort on arrival if you need reliable data.
Light, comfortable clothing and swimwear cover most of the week. Bring a light layer for breezy evenings and a rain jacket or poncho. This is a tropical island and it will probably rain at some point, briefly and beautifully.
A full packing guide comes with your onboarding. In general, bring comfortable daily wear, activewear for movement, a swimsuit, walking shoes or sandals, reef-safe sunscreen, insect repellent, and a few pieces you feel good in for evenings or special moments.
Yes. We gather this during onboarding, so just share your requirements in advance and arrangements can be made before you arrive.
No. The retreat is built for beginners too. You do not need to arrive already good at anything to belong here.
No. The 50% deposit secures one of only six places and is non-refundable. The remaining balance is due 30 days before the retreat starts.
People have felt the ACZ magic in the room.
These are not Siargao retreat reviews yet, because this week is new. They are from people who have experienced LuLu, ACZ, and the way she holds a room.
