Our private, gated sanctuary is only a short 5 min. walk from the beach, and a short 10-15 min walk to town to explore local activities. Choose your level of comfort and degree of privacy by selecting a suite that best suits your needs.

We’ll spend our time in three beautiful villas offering a variety of thoughtfully designed accommodations, from private suites with private baths to comfortable shared options. Two villas feature pools with distant ocean views and welcoming spaces where we’ll gather and share meals together, while a third villa witha  pool nestled in the tropical forest offers added privacy.

Our Yoga Shala nestled in the jungle is where we will gather for yoga, movement, meditation, and healing practices.
