The 2026–2027 lists

How We Rank Women’s Retreats

I keep lists of women's retreats by place: Sedona, Arizona, California, Florida, Hawaii, Colorado and Texas. A list is only worth something when its rules are public, so here they are, along with how a retreat leaves and what we give the organizers who stay.

The rules

What a retreat needs to get on a list

  1. A women's retreat that has run

    An organizer's women's retreat on any platform, or a center's women's program. It has run at least twice, and its 2026–2027 dates are published.

  2. A living leader with a name

    You can see who leads it and know her or his name.

  3. An open price

    The price is open on the organizer's booking page or in a retreat catalog.

  4. Reviews you can read

    Women who went have left words anyone can read.

  5. The place in photos

    The place and the rooms are shown in real photographs.

  6. Spiritual work in the program

    The days hold practices of the field: ceremony, meditation, breath, sound, work with energy. Retreats with psychoactive substances and church centers stay off the lists.

The 2026–2027 edition

What this edition is

This is the 2026–2027 edition. On the lists are women's retreats by organizers on any platform and women's programs at centers, and each has a working site of its organizer. I check every one against the 6 rules, one at a time.

How a retreat leaves a list

  • Once I have checked it, it does not meet one of the 6 rules.
  • Its last published date has passed and no new one has appeared.
  • The organizer's site stops working, or the organizer asks me to take it off.

If a description is wrong or out of date, write to me and I will fix it the same day: hello@retreatcurator.com

Our retreats

Our own retreats on the lists

Our retreats enter by the same rules and always carry this mark. Nobody pays to be on a list, and a badge is never a condition.

Retreat Curator is this site’s own project

For organizers on a list

Badge for retreats on a list

If your retreat is on one of the lists, you can show it on your site. The code links back to your list with a plain link. Your place on the list stays whether you add the badge or not.
