Caya Shobo

Great people, beautiful retreat center, knowledgeable curanderos (shamans).
Felt safe and secure there to go through a cleansing/healing journey (did a 12 day retreat). Inner work is never easy and doing that kind of work in the right environments with the right people is something I take very seriously.
10/10 would recommend Caya Shobo!

I’ve been to Caya Shobo 3 times in the last year and a half - and I would not personally choose to go anywhere else. In my experience, the maestros at Caya Shobo aren’t only the sweetest and good-hearted people, but also incredibly gifted and powerful at what they do. The healings I have experienced in the ceremonies here have gone as deep as my genetic blueprint. There is real magic happening at Caya Shobo. The master plant dietas and the ayahuasca ceremonies have fundamentally changed me from the inside out. In addition to the incredible healings that happen here, the site itself is actually really comfortable for being in the middle of the jungle. There is full staff that cook for you, offer laundry service, clean your room, and keep the whole place clean and running smoothly for the duration of the retreats. The facilitators are westerners and have so much experience with the medicine and offer amazing support. You will be taken care of physically, emotionally, and spiritually - better than most places. I recommend Caya Shobo 10/10 for ayahuasca retreat and master plant dietas.

I had quite a lot Ayahuasca experiences before coming to Caya Shobo. I however never had such deep and accurate healing experiences. I can't imagine going in another center ever again. The shipibo shamans were very efficient, and totally trustworthy. The best medicine people I ever met. Their approach to medicine is tailored to every participants individual needs. Working with Ayahuasca and peruvian plants can be emotionally challenging, so it is very important that the external conditions are good too. I felt incredibly safe and totaly listened too at Caya Shobo. I do not speak Spanish but the facilitators translated every thing for me, and shared their valuable knowledge too. The resort is also quite comfortable, anyways it's the most comfortable and beautiful jungle ressort I ever went to. And the energies are very very good.
I went to Caya Shobo last year and the healings I received there kept growing in me and helping me long after I came back home. I wish I ll be able to do another retreat soon. I really recommend.

My time at Caya Shobo was more than what I could have ever expected. I was looking for a retreat center that was truly focused on healing without all the extra fluff. I wanted an authentic healing experience in a space that would allow me to be and process in my own way. From the moment I stepped onto the property I knew I made the right decision. Not only were the Shamans and facilitators incredible and helpful, but every single person that has a hand in CS made my trip truly magical. I stayed in a private room, and it was basic (as you would expect in the jungle) and very comfortable-I spent a lot of time in there. The food is so clean and delicious. I still find myself craving lunch at Caya Shobo. For anyone who is looking for a deep healing retreat I would recommend Caya Shobo over and over again.

I attended a retreat at Caya Shobo earlier this year and am still celebrating the profound transformation that unfolded during my master plant dieta. I knew I was feeling stuck, but I had no idea how much I was carrying until I was finally able to release it.

Caya Shobo offers a safe, nurturing, and deeply knowledgeable space to explore your inner world and transform life’s challenges into powerful lessons that bring clarity and renewal. This experience has helped me become a more present mother, a more loving partner, and a more intentional creator of my own life.

The tambos are thoughtfully designed, the food is nourishing and delicious, and the staff embodies both kindness and wisdom. I felt genuinely cared for and supported every step of my journey.

If you’re seeking a place for true healing and inner work—congratulations, you’ve found it.
