Lake Atitlán

You bring the program. We hold the space.

Host your group at Atitlan Eco Retreat for an unforgettable experience. “Noise, tears, and laughter are all welcome here. You won’t need to explain the importance of safe space — we understand the work.”

We make sure the environment is exactly what it needs to be for you to run it well. That means clean rooms, nourishing food, reliable logistics, and a team that is ready to serve and ensure you are taken care of. We have hosted retreats worldwide, and understand how important it is to have a partner that cares for you and is ready to make this so successful that you would want to make it a bi-yearly event. We are your partner throughout the entire process. Let’s make your retreat rock!

Teacher Trainings

200hr and 300hr trainings, continuing education, and teaching intensives. Purpose-built practice spaces, and a venue that already knows how to host a training well.

Events

Reunions, birthdays, vow renewals, memorials, and intentional private gatherings. A place that feels held — for the moments that matter.

"The Dharma Hall is one of the most extraordinary practice spaces I have ever taught in. Floor-to-ceiling windows, the lake, the volcanoes, the sound of the river beneath you. Your students will never forget it."

Why Atitlan Eco Retreat

What makes this venue different

Most retreat venues rent you a beautiful space and step back. We understand transformation — because this center was built by practitioners, for practitioners. That changes how we hold the space, how we feed your group, and how we support you as a facilitator.

Boat and car access

Tzununa is accessible by boat from Panajachel (15 min) or by road around the top of the lake. Your group arrives and the outside world genuinely disappears. No drive-bys, no noise, no distractions.

Purpose-built shalas

Not a converted barn or a hotel conference room. The Dharma Hall was built for yoga — the proportions, the light, the floor, the views. Your students will feel the difference.

Full catering available

Our kitchen team can handle everything from simple communal meals to elaborate ceremonial feasts. Vegetarian, locally sourced, freshly prepared. Dietary needs accommodated.

Temazcal on-site

Traditional Maya sweat lodge for ceremony and purification. A powerful addition to any healing or wellness retreat. Available for groups.

One of the most powerful lakes on earth

Lake Atitlan at 1,560m elevation, surrounded by volcanoes, held by indigenous Maya culture. The setting is not incidental — it is part of the retreat. And 90% of our staff are from the local Maya community of Tzununa. When you book here, you are giving back to the place that makes this possible.
