UPCOMING RETREATS
The Ometepe Deep Dive Retreat
7-Day Immersion
Dates: June 12 – June 18, 2026
For those seeking deep transformation within a spacious and carefully supported container.
Ometepe Island
A Landscape That Listens
Some places entertain.
Others receive you.
Rising from the tranquil waters of Lake Nicaragua, Ometepe Island is the largest freshwater island in the world and a recognized UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.
For centuries this land has quietly drawn seekers, healers, and travelers who sense that something here feels… different.
Two ancient volcanoes shape the island’s energy:
-
Concepción Volcano, expressive, ascending, carrying the clarity and momentum of fire
-
Maderas Volcano, lush, receptive, holding the depth and emotional wisdom of water
Together they create a rare ecological and energetic balance where reflection, healing, and transformation naturally unfold.
Across the island, more than 1,700 ancient petroglyphs remain etched into volcanic stone, quiet reminders that the people who lived here long before us understood the land as a partner in spiritual life.
Today Ometepe remains protected by a close-knit community of farmers, artisans, healers, and families who live in respectful relationship with the land.
For guests of Sacred and Vital, Ometepe becomes more than a setting.
It becomes an ally in the process of transformation.
Its stillness encourages listening.
Its wildness supports release.
Its elevation widens perspective.
The Deep Dive Experience
This seven-day immersion allows time for the nervous system to settle and for insights to integrate naturally.
Rather than rushing the process, the retreat unfolds in a steady rhythm of ceremony, reflection, and embodiment.
Participants receive:
• Six nights in a private jungle bungalow or shared cabana
• Two to three Ayahuasca ceremonies, guided by experienced Maestros with respected lineage
• Rapé or Hoska sessions supporting energetic alignment and grounding
• Somatic integration practices including meditation, breathwork, and gentle movement
• Plant-infused steam baths and restorative healing practices
• Optional Kambo treatment, offered within a professional and consent-based framework
• All organic dieta-aligned meals, prepared by a private healing-foods chef
• A private one-on-one integration planning session with a trained facilitator
• Group airport transfers on arrival and departure days
• Comprehensive pre-retreat preparation and medical screening
• 30-day post-retreat integration support
This extended format allows the medicine to settle into the body and nervous system, not just the mind.

The Ometepe Foundation Retreat
5-Day Immersion
Dates: June 12 – June 16, 2026
A beautifully balanced introduction to plant medicine for those who are new to ceremonial work or who have limited time but still want a meaningful experience.
Ometepe Island
Where Nature Holds the Process
In a world that moves quickly, Ometepe invites something different.
Here the rhythms of life are slower, more grounded, and deeply connected to the natural world.
Surrounded by the waters of Lake Nicaragua and shaped by the ancient presence of Concepción Volcano and Maderas Volcano, the island offers a rare environment of balance and reflection.
For generations this land has attracted people seeking clarity, reconnection, and renewal.
Sacred and Vital retreats are designed to work in harmony with this environment, creating a container where both inner work and nervous-system regulation are supported.
The Foundation Experience
This five-day retreat provides a contained, safe, and carefully guided introduction to ceremonial plant medicine.
Participants receive:
• Four nights in a secluded jungle bungalow or shared cabana
• Two to three Ayahuasca ceremonies, facilitated by experienced Maestros
• Rapé (Hapé) ceremony supporting grounding and intention setting
• Daily integration circles after ceremony
• Somatic yoga and meditation practices
• All meals prepared by a private chef, aligned with traditional dieta guidelines
• Group transfer from Managua airport on arrival day
• Pre-retreat preparation and medical screening
• 30-day post-retreat integration support

An Island That Feels Familiar
Many people describe the same feeling when they arrive to Ometepe Island:
A quiet sense of recognition.
As if the land already knows them.

Whatever the reason, Ometepe has long been a place where people come to remember themselves.
