Meet Niki Jean – Your Travel Queen & Retreat Host
Creating Soulful Travel Experiences That Bring People Together
Hi, I’m Niki Jean!
I’m a global adventurer, licensed travel agent, Pilates and fitness instructor, and retreat host with a passion for connection and community. I create soulful travel experiences where solo travelers never feel alone and groups feel like family.
My Journey
Born in Canada to a South African father and German mother, my love for travel began with family road trips to Florida and then vacations in Mexico. At 23, what was supposed to be a one-month trip to Mexico turned into seven transformative years, from bartending in San Miguel de Allende to hosting guests at Villas Del Mar, Palmilla in Los Cabos. Later, Southeast Asia and Bali deepened my yoga and Hot Pilates practice and revealed my true calling: curating meaningful travel experiences.
Why I Do This Work
Life hasn’t always been easy. My older brother faced significant challenges growing up, and my parents did their best to navigate it all. From a young age, I learned to be independent, often carrying emotional responsibilities beyond my years and finding my way through complex family dynamics.
Later in life, my parents faced their own health battles, including a brain tumour, both having cancer, and my mother now lives with dementia. These experiences have shaped me deeply, instilling a strong sense of empathy, resilience, and a genuine understanding of what it means to hold space for others.
What I Offer
I host multiple retreats every year - from the jungles of Costa Rica to the turquoise waters of Greece. My offerings combine movement, mindfulness, cultural immersion, and a whole lot of fun, all designed to make travel effortless, inclusive, and unforgettable.
Whether you’re seeking a weekend getaway or an international adventure, I’m here to create experiences that leave you feeling inspired, connected, and truly alive.
xoxo Niki
