Looking to start 2026 with clarity, intention, and connection?
Our team of loving, compassionate facilitators and healers invite you to welcome the new year and integrate the past year in community, nature, and medicine.
...
The turn of the year is always symbolic and a special time at Soltara. Alongside a community of like-minded souls, together we celebrate it in a way that encourages catalytic positive change in our lives.
For many, this past year (and more) has presented unique challenges. How can we heal from, integrate, and utilize the insights and lessons gained from our experiences and effect positive change?
For those looking to be supported in this journey, we’ll gather at our ridgetop refuge within a private nature sanctuary spanning over 200 acres, for some deep introspection, cleansing, and goal-setting as the year 2026 befalls us.
Together, we'll step into the new year with more energy and clarity; with a renewed grasp on our lives, our health, our well-being, and our futures.
Join us in Costa Rica to ring in the new year. For the first time, we're offering this special New Year's Retreat as a 7 Night retreat with 4 Ayahuasca ceremonies.
On the final evening, we will have a special (non-medicine) ceremonial gathering to integrate your experience, welcome the new year with your fellow passengers, and visualize your path forward for 2026. Afterward, spend time together or with yourself, under the stars and sharing songs by the fire. By the end of the retreat, you’ll be ready to start making the positive change you desire in your life and the world around you.
We look forward to supporting you in your journey.

OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU
We are called to serve medicine in sacred ceremony with integrity, humility, and compassion. By creating a safe space and working only with experienced, well-intentioned healers and facilitators, we uphold the lessons of the medicines and build a foundation of mutual trust, authenticity, and respect. We are not gurus, preachers, or enlightened beings – our healers are maestros who humbly transmit the knowledge and healing energies of the plants, and our facilitators are devoted to helping guests face, process, and explore difficult experiences and emotions, handle projections, manage expectations, and surrender to the process. We strive to uphold the highest integrity in everything we do and be a beacon for responsible, safe, and ethical practices, such that our guests feel safe and supported to get the most out of their healing.
