8 Day Spiritual Journey and Ayurveda Retreat in Paraty

Aldeia Rizoma is the name of the complex where the retreat is hosted. It has 6 houses; each has a different name and size. The houses' designs are inspired by the Amazon rainforest in Acre (Brazil) where the architect got to know the Ashaninka indigenous village called Apiwtxa.

Participants will stay in one of the six houses available. The houses each have their own kitchen and bath. There is a private cabin for 2 people, two cabins for 4 people, and 2 cabins for 6 people. They have king-size beds and single beds as well. Please note that there is no air conditioning.
