Guatemala:

A Yoga & CULTURAL IMMERSION

ONLY 1 ROOM LEFT!

March 7 - March 14, 2027

Immerse yourself in Mayan culture, vibrant colors, and natural beauty during your journey through Guatemala. Your first stop is Antigua, where you’ll be surrounded by historic Spanish colonial architecture that has withstood centuries of volcanic activity and earthquakes. Explore its ruins and museums, and wander through lively artisan markets.

Next, travel to the breathtaking Lake Atitlán, formed within a collapsed volcanic crater and encircled by culturally rich villages. With its serene atmosphere and sweeping views, Lake Atitlán has been called “the closest thing to Eden on Earth.” Here, we’ll stay in the peaceful lakeside town of San Marcos at a boutique retreat center, using taxi boats and tuk-tuks to explore neighboring villages—each offering its own unique charm, from traditional weaving and ceramics to local culinary experiences.

You’ll also have time to relax and enjoy the lake and the property’s amenities, including swimming, hiking, and kayaking. And of course, daily yoga will be available, all set against the stunning natural backdrop.
