Details of this retreat

What makes this retreat special is the energy of the space itself, a sacred sanctuary where nature, stillness, and heart-centered practices come together in perfect harmony.

At El Santuario, everything is done with intention from the way we cook and serve nourishing meals, to how we hold space for movement, meditation, and sound. It’s not just a retreat; it’s a living temple of presence, where every breath, sound, and sunrise becomes part of your healing journey.

We blend ancient yogic practices with a yoga teacher from India, meditative sound healing, and mindful living in an environment that feels safe, nurturing, and deeply healing. Each guest is met exactly where they are, welcomed like family, and supported by our team to soften, release, and reconnect with their inner peace.

Each day here is a gentle invitation to return home to yourself. Mornings begin with the sounds of birds and flowing water of the stream, and the grounding rhythm of breath and movement. Through daily yoga, guided meditation, and sound healing, you will reconnect with your body, quiet the mind, and awaken a deep sense of peace within.

Throughout your stay, nourishing vegetarian meals prepared with love support your healing from the inside out. The days unfold at an unhurried pace - allowing space for rest, reflection, and connection with the natural world.

Evenings bring time for integration - gentle sound journeys, candlelit meditations, or sharing heartfelt moments in community. No matter where you are on your path, this experience offers a space to slow down, reset, and reconnect to yourself, to nature, and to the quiet wisdom that lives within you.
