A truly magical place

This is a truly magical place. I returned to spend a bit more time there a few days after leaving! 😁 Will most certainly return and would strongly recommend this place to anyone looking for a lush oasis of calm, healing and positive energy.

Exotic location with lovely peaceful accommodation set amongst palm trees

This is quite an unusual place but I really enjoyed my time here. The accommodation consisted of a set of rooms located on two levels at the back of their garden well away from the reception and main entrance. The room is accessed via a tropical garden of palm trees with hammocks and a pool, so all very exotic. Being away from the main road and entrance, it was very quiet and peaceful and so I enjoyed an excellent night's sleep. There was an en-suite bathroom, air-conditioning and a downstairs kitchen area where guests can prepare their own meals. There are plenty of facilities for tourists (restaurants, shops, bureau de change) along the road outside and they have parking spaces for cars on a side lane which gives access to the garden area. It is only a couple of miles from the archaeological site of Tulum. The staff spoke English which is a real plus as I found that in many hotels in Mexico English was not widely spoken.

Amor Pachamama

It is truly a sanctuary where you can have a wonderful experience. I was not good at talking, but all the staff here communicated with my heart. I had a small dream. It is to bring your family here in the near future. Thank you for the dreamy time.

I booked the Gold and Platinum packages because of the offered medicines like Bufo, Kambo, and mushrooms. If the time feels right for you, I highly recommend giving it a try. It will change your life forever. The stay was wonderful, the people were kind, welcoming, and always available. They truly listen, provide great support throughout the process, and create a safe and welcoming space for deep transformation

Very nice healing center

A nice room in a retreat center in Tulum. Beautiful area, full of plants, pool, sauna, outside kitchen, drinking water available. Next to the main street, where you find a lot of good restaurants. You can also book a personal ceremony there. Nice people there. I really enjoyed the sauna! And you are close to cenotes and ruins (cca 15 minutes by car).
