15-Day Eco-Luxury Yoga and Wellness Retreat in Jungle Paradise, Nicaragua

This retreat is all about giving yourself time to reset, with a schedule that balances structure and freedom. You'll start most days with a vinyasa yoga class at 7:30 AM, followed by a healthy breakfast. The middle of the day is open — you can join a surf trip with a local instructor, take a 1-hour massage (included), or head to town to explore. Afternoons bring a slower yin yoga class as the sun sets, and evenings end with a gourmet three-course vegetarian dinner.

What makes this retreat stand out is the range of included extras. Each week you'll take part in a cacao ceremony with locally sourced cacao, a sound healing session, a mantra circle or ecstatic dance, and a temazcal sauna ritual. Ice baths are available throughout, and you'll have a workshop focused on deepening your practice. These aren't just add-ons — they're woven into the experience, and the hosts make sure everyone feels comfortable joining in.

The teaching team includes Chrissy, a yoga and fitness instructor trained in SOMA breathwork and sound healing, and LaToya, a therapeutic specialist with over 15 years in women's health and mind-body education. Their approach is practical and grounded — they give you tools you can actually use off the mat, whether that's a breathing technique for stress or a way to check in with your body.

Eden on the Chocolata is a family-run eco-lodge, and guests often mention the warm, accommodating staff and the peaceful atmosphere even when the retreat is full. The property is set in a tropical garden with two beaches within walking distance — one is a 15-minute walk to a lookout bay with hammocks and a restaurant, the other a quieter 20-minute walk through nature. San Juan del Sur, with its colorful streets and restaurants, is a 10-minute drive or 30-minute walk away.
