Welcome to Atitlán Awakening

You feel a pull, a gentle nudge, an inner knowing. Perhaps you've heard about the beauty and energy of Lake Atitlán. Maybe you want to explore Mayan culture, or you simply want some time away in a peaceful supportive environment--to connect, to rejuvenate, to explore.
Whatever may have called you, it brought you here.

Atitlán Awakening is a personal retreat center on the shores of Lake Atitlán. With privacy and caring, we support you in your personal journey. Here you are surrounded by the magnificence of Tolimán, Atitlán, and San Pedro volcanos, and the splendor of the lake. This beautiful lakefront retreat is away from the noise and bustle of nearby towns, but close enough to explore the culture, art, and spirit of these traditional Mayan communities.
Private retreats are available for individuals, couples, and groups of up to six people.
Now is the time. Come join us.

Guest Reflections

The Atitlan Awakening experience was for me, moving, inspiring and great fun.  From the authentically-prepared, vegan meals to the surprising insightful Cacao Shaman, I found my body, mind, and heart nourished and nurtured.

I came to Atitlan Awakening with an intention to compose music.  As a busy musician, it’s easy to get stuck in regular routines and lose the creative edge that draws me to music in the first place.  While there, I enjoyed the kayak rides, the visits to local Mayan markets, the delicious food, the sacred ceremonies… and something about the spirit of the place.  I found my creativity flowering in the peaceful presence of something I can’t quite name.  Not only did I compose some of my greatest works ever, these many months later, I find that same creative energy is still with me.

I highly recommend the Atitlan Awakening experience as is a rare opportunity to open yourself to receive beautiful gifts of spirit.
