Each guest enjoys their own beautifully appointed private room within the lakefront eco-sanctuary, The Seed. Designed with intention and natural elegance, the rooms blend comfort, beauty, and simplicity allowing you to fully rest, restore, and reconnect with yourself.
Features include:
- Handcrafted furniture and natural materials
- Sweeping views of the lake, mountains, or surrounding gardens
- Private semi-private bathroom with artisanal touches
- High-quality bedding and cozy natural textiles
- Quiet, spacious design to support deep rest and reflection
This is not a hotel, it’s a sacred space designed for transformation, built with love and care, and rooted in the land. Each room is unique, but all offer a deep sense of peace, privacy, and soul. You’ll wake up to birdsong and fall asleep to the sounds of the lake, fully immersed in nature, but held in comfort.
Program
Each Reset retreat is carefully crafted around your group’s unique needs, with a gentle rhythm that balances structured support and spacious freedom. While the itinerary is fully personalized, the experience follows a nourishing arc: arrival, release, recalibration, and return.
Your days will include a blend of:
- Morning breathwork, meditation, and gentle movement (yoga, walks, somatic practices)
- Deep rest time and space for silence, journaling, or nature immersion
- Cultural or wellness experiences tailored to your interests
- 3 to 5 guided temazcal and cold plunge sessions for cellular reset
- Beautiful ceremonies — such as cacao, fire, or sound healing
- Daily personal check-ins with your retreat guide
You’ll also have access to the wellness and cultural menu, which allows you to add therapeutic bodywork, Mayan astrology, silent ceremonies, or additional natural treatments throughout your stay.
This is not a retreat packed with back-to-back workshops. It’s a sovereign, slow, soul-honouring experience designed to bring you back to your body’s intelligence and rhythm.
This retreat is for those who:
- Feel physically or mentally depleted
- Want to reset without intensity or pressure
- Value balance between movement, rest, and nature
- Are seeking a simple, nourishing, and well-held experience
Ideal for individuals, couples, or small groups of friends.

Walter Quiacain
Walter lives in San Marcos la Laguna, nestled along the serene shores of Lake Atitlan. For over a decade, he has dedicated himself to delving deep into the Mayan Ancestral knowledge, happily sharing its timeless wisdom with the world. His journey has been one of immersion into the sacred principles of alternative healing, rooted in the profound teachings of medicinal plants, Metaphysics, and the philosophy of the Mayan Cosmovision.
The Seed Team
The retreats are lovingly held by the experienced team at The Seed Habitat, who have been living and hosting in harmony with the land for over 20 years. They don’t just preach a wellness lifestyle. They live it. The team members are long-time practitioners of daily yoga, breathwork, meditation, and conscious living, and have supported hundreds of guests and facilitators through meaningful, transformative retreats. At The Seed, they walk their talk: from sustainability and ceremony to daily rhythms rooted in nature and presence. They’re now honored to share this space, lifestyle, and wisdom.
