About your trip

1 SPOT LEFT!-

PIEDRO- STONE-SINGLE $2199

It begins in Guatemala with a lake...and a volcano...


Called by many as one of the most magical spots on the planet, Lake Atitlan and the surrounding countryside offers incomparable natural beauty as well as a rich heritage of Mayan traditions and a respect for spiritual  life.


Located just outside the Mayan indigenous village of San Marcos la Laguna, Casa Paloma has been lovingly developed for over 20 plus years as a luxury retreat center and gathering place for groups to come together to practice yoga, swim, kayak, hike, share wonderful meals and explore the Mayan world.

The village of San Marcos—a ten minute walk from the property—offers a  wide range of healing opportunities as well as lively restaurants, cafes purveyors of local crafts and a small nature preserve.


Enjoy 6 nights and 7 days at this tranquil property full of alive abundance and relaxing spots to "Unwind, Rejuvenate, and Grow" in lakeside luxury!  (we will spend one night in Antigua on Jan, 17th)


Start your day with morning meditation, a hike, jump right off of Casa Paloma's own private dock into Lake Atitlan, or a cup of coffee in the Rose &  Hammock garden.  Daily yoga (2x/day) in a tranquil open-aired yoga  shala, gourmet farm to table meals, , massage dock, , and the list goes on... but most importantly connect with an  amazing group of like-minded people.  There will be a daily schedule of activities that you can do as much or as little as you want!
