All-Inclusive Yoga and Wellness Week on Lake Atitlán, Guatemala

A day at Eagle's Nest starts early if you want it to. Sunrise yoga is on the schedule, followed by breakfast — one of three home-cooked, locally sourced meals served daily. Between meals you can join a class, sit in the sauna, use the meditation spaces, walk into town (it's a short walk), or do nothing at all by the lake. Evening brings workshops, sound healing or another yoga session, then dinner and sunset.

What separates this from a standard yoga retreat is that the classes are open rather than a closed cohort. Every class is included free with your stay, and drop-in visitors from around the lake can also book in. You can switch classes any time before they start, and cancel for a full refund up to three hours before. That flexibility means you build your own week rather than following someone else's.

The teaching covers Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin, sound healing and more, with instructors brought in from around the globe. The programme runs from single classes up to multi-week retreats, so you can stay a night or a fortnight. New retreats and teacher trainings are added through the year.

Rooms face the lake and come at a range of price points — reviews mention options for all budgets, from shared spaces to private rooms. The property is eco-luxury in style: thoughtful design, lake views from the rooms and shared areas, and cats on site if you want company.

Lake Atitlán itself is the reason most people come. It's a volcanic crater lake ringed by three volcanoes, and the towns around it are reached by boat. The property is a short walk from town, which makes it easy to eat out, shop or take a boat trip on a rest day. Temazcal (traditional Mayan sweat lodge) ceremonies are part of the local wellness scene and the property writes about them.
