At Hermosa Cove we want you to be whole and healthy; to find balance in mind, body, and soul. Hermosa Wellness is our holistic approach to finding that balance through the ancient practice of yoga, through meditation, with good food, kind people, and a beautiful landscape.
When one part of your ecosystem is misaligned, your whole self is out of balance. Our expert staff will see you, hear you and guide you on a journey of peace and healing. We don’t want you to need “a vacation after your vacation” – we want to bring you back to your best self; we want you to find health and healing here at Hermosa.
Yoga is a practice that is available and accessible to everyone. Without prejudice, it accepts all people from any cultural or religious background. Practitioners of Yoga refer to it as …
The work of turning inward and becoming more aware of the self.
These practices lead to a life of contentment, freedom, and mindfulness when aligned with “The 8 Limbs of Yoga”, outlined by the philosopher Patanjali over 3,000 years ago.
At Hermosa Wellness we begin your journey with daily asana (the physical practice of yoga). This practice will help calm the mind, and you’ll quickly find that mental chatter washes away and it’s easier to quiet your worries about the future, past, and present.
Yoga then links pranayama (controlled breathing) to movement which creates balance by activating the sympathetic nervous system through movement and then calming the body with breath. We then rest and release; allowing for a full exhale of the body, mind, and spirit.
Jamaica’s natural, lush environment resonates life. Here, the vibrant Earth breaths in and out. Plants grow. Birds chirp. Waves lap on the beach in rhythm with your heart. When we practice health and wellness in an environment where plants and animals grow so abundantly, life echoes life – beauty cries out to beauty.
We at Hermosa Cove have been fostering Jamaica’s natural landscapes from the very first stone that was laid. We long to balance the flourishing of nature and the luxuries of modern day life. All this crafted carefully and artfully.
Come experience the intertwining of nature, art, and luxury. Hermosa Cove is one of a kind, a hidden gem.
My name is Melissa Quinn and my husband along with our two youngest children have the pleasure of living every day on the peaceful and abundant property of Hermosa Cove. We relocated, as a family from Grand Cayman in November of 2022 when given the incredible opportunity to partner with the founders and creators of what we call “the most beautiful place on earth”. Being avid travellers for both business and pleasure when we first arrived on this property in 2015 and we knew that we had found a place like none other. It soon became our home away from home; as a couple and as a family we would visit multiple times a year seeking the peace and tranquility that flows freely from this land to recharge from our busy lives – until we were gifted with the opportunity of partnership. Give Thanks.
Yoga has been part of my life since I was 16 years old. I had a family physician recommend that I begin this practice as a way to combat general anxiety. I fell in love with yoga because I immediately felt the benefits that it brought to my overstimulated nervous system. This new found feeling of peace guided me to take my first of many Yoga Teacher Trainings. I enrolled in a 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Brampton, Ontario, Canada under the guidance of a Traditional Indian Guru in the Ashtanga Vinyasa Lineage at the age of 19.
Since my first YTT, I learned that the best teachers are those who are committed to being life long learners. I have diligently studied over the past two decades receiving numerous additional accreditations in pre/post natal, trauma informed teaching, philosophy, pranayama, nidra, yin, meditation, Sanskrit, and more. Through these additional yoga teacher trainings I have earned the highest designation through Yoga Alliance International. I give so much gratitude for having the access and ability to continue being a student.
I believe that my yoga practice has been the anchor throughout my adult life and my various business ventures but most importantly my dharma as wife, mother, and stepmother to our collective six children. I believe that everything is yoga and that in and of its very self LIFE offers us the biggest opportunity to lean into this practice and its teachings. I believe that it is both yoga and the knowledge that we are guided by something far greater than ourselves that has led me to be right here and now. For this I am grateful.
In addition to holding the accreditation as an E-RYT 500, I am also a Reiki Master, Intuitive, and Herbalist. You will find my yoga asana practices to be challenging, yet accessible to all with a weaving thread of yogic philosophy.
I look forward to practicing with you! Please do reach out to me directly if you are looking to customize your vacation, corporate event or mindfulness retreat.
