      About this trip

      Escape with Kelsey to Lake Atitlan, a magical crater lake located in the heart of Guatemala. This retreat will provide you with the perfect opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle of life, and explore a remote part of the world that will open your heart and your perspective to what could be. 


      The trip begins with an overnight stay in the beautiful, colonial city of Antigua, where the group will assemble, and your first taste of life in Guatemala will be enjoyed. We will then make our way to Isla Verde, a unique and beautiful lakefront eco-resort with a laid back vibe. 


      Our days will include daily (and always optional) Yoga and Fitness classes, delicious locally sourced meals, as well as plenty of time for relaxation, rejuvenation and reflection amongst the energetic vortex that is Lake Atitlan. 


      Outdoor lovers will have the opportunity to partake in many adventurous activities throughout our week including kayaking, hiking, and stand up paddle boarding. We will also have plenty of opportunity to experience the ancient Mayan culture of Lake Atitlan, or give back by volunteering at a local preschool. Boat rides are readily available to visit neighboring villages where you can take in some amazing people watching, local foods, markets, and some of the best textile and arts shopping in Central America.


      Come experience the magic of Guatemala with an amazing group of people! This trip will change your life... if you let it. :)

      I loved the accommodations at Santa Barbara Beach resort, and all of the activities that Sol Seeds provided. I also loved Micah‘s outdoor guidance experiences and the nature excursions. Overall, it was a wonderful experience!

      Angela and acandance are amazing! I love all of their retreats, and this was a memorable experience for me. The location was breathtaking. But the food was very limiting, the 400 stairs should’ve been added in the trip info and the scorpions in the room made it imposible to sleep in.

      I had a wonderful time. The location, the Essaouira Lodge, was awesome: Beautiful bungalow, walk distance to the yoga outdoor arena, dining area, swimming pool...and quick ride to the Medina. The food was interesting and delicious...every meal a new experience! Best of all, was doing daily, breath, yoga and MELT sessions with Joyce and Rudy...and meeting a lot of really great folks and forging new friendships.
