An Amazing Experience
I recently attended a psilocybin retreat at Ananda and had an excellent experience. The schedule was thoughtfully organized, gradually introducing the process in a way that felt safe and reassuring. It was evident that the staff and leadership put significant effort into doing everything the right way.

The accommodations and grounds were beautiful, lending a spa-like ambiance to the retreat. The food, prepared daily by Jonathan and Mary, was outstanding—truly on par with a high-end restaurant. Each meal was fresh, beautifully presented, and never repeated. Jonathan and Mary were also delightful, accommodating people who enhanced my stay through our personal conversations and interactions.

I additionally very much enjoyed the company of my fellow participants, or “passengers.” They were intelligent, engaging individuals, and we discovered we had similar backgrounds and motivations for attending. Their presence made me feel at ease and contributed greatly to my positive experience.

Life changing experience - cannot recommend Ananda Lodge enough
I'm still in awe of the beauty and significant expansion and healing that I received through my journey with Kimberly and Rachael at Ananda Lodge. The minute you step onto the property you can feel the sacredness of the land and the warm smiles that greet you from the owners Kimberly and Jason and the rest of the amazing staff, you feel immediately safe and at home. The ceremonies are powerful and it is a reminder that you are your own healer but now using plant medicine as your ally to support your growth, expansion and healing.

The accommodations are top notch. Starting with the food that is made with such love by Jonathan and Mary is some of the best food I've ever had! I have food restrictions (vegan and gluten free) and they made the most incredible meals each day honoring those restrictions, which such beautiful variety.

The rooms are so beautiful, each having a view of the ocean and the property. The beds are so beyond comfortable, like sleeping on a cloud after doing some hard work, I felt like my body could sink deep into rest.

The massages on site as also healing and helpful in your self love journey.

If you are considering joining a retreat at Ananda Lodge, look no further. They limit spaces so your journey will be intimate and curated for true healing vs. other places try to pack in a many people as possible which doesn't allow for this incredibly tailored experience for each of the attendees. The love and support is infused in each day you will spend there. I cannot recommend Ananda Lodge, the staff and location enough!

Strongly recommend
I’ve been to a few retreats over the last few years and have done 14 ayahuasca ceremonies. This was my best retreat yet!! I cannot recommend this place enough. Every single detail was so organized and professional. I felt extremely safe at all times and taken care of in such a different way that I have NEVER felt before. Kimberly really cares about this work/healing and everyone who passes through. Since the retreats are limited to eight people, you really get that EXTRA care that you normally don’t receive. The rooms were so luxurious. I loved the outdoor shower in my room. The beds and linens were comfortable. The pool overlooking the view was beautiful. The private chefs were phenomenal. We were in awe with each meal that was served, so much thought and care put into each one. And it was always plentiful. The maestras were like none i have ever experienced. The one on one time with them was huge for me and helped me immensely with breakthroughs that I have been trying to work on for years. As well as the care team. They are trauma informed which was new for me but greatly assisted me in this journey. I learned soooo much about myself/body from the week that I was there. Having dinner and breakfast with all of them each day made me feel that much safer as well. By the end of this retreat we were genuinely like a little family and bonds that I will never forget. Truly grateful to Kimberly and her team. A life changing experience. Whether you’re a first timer or struggling to break ground on your intentions definitely come here!!

Life changing
Tranquil, beautiful, and safe environment. Excellent food. A genuine, caring, supportive staff, with humor and grace. I can’t imagine there is a better place or program to unpack and move through emotional and physical challenges. I only hope I’ll be able to go back, and encourage anyone with the means and the desire for growth, to visit.

Invigorating
Ananda Lodge is such a serene and beautiful place. The owners take really good care of each participant and I could tell they put a lot of thought into the space they created. Retreats here are the experience of a lifetime and the staff were such wonderful, kind, empathetic people I honestly didn't want to leave. But each retreat comes to an end and I definitely plan on attending more retreats here just because the experience is so refreshing. I love the people and oh the food was the best I've ever had!
