RAÍZ
R E T R E A T
A Sacred Return to the Land
An 11/11 Portal in Nicaragua
RAÍZ ~ meaning root ~ is an intimate, luxurious, and soul‑led retreat held in the land of my lineage, Nicaragua.
This experience is an invitation to slow down, reconnect with the earth beneath your feet, and realign with what truly matters.
Set inside La Casa Violeta, a stunning architectural gem featured in Architectural Digest, this retreat is intentionally small. Only four guests, allowing for a deeply personalized, private, and nourishing experience.
This is not about doing more.
This is about remembering.
What Awaits You?
Step into the magic of Granada, Nicaragua — where colonial beauty meets raw volcanic landscapes, lush jungle, and sacred waters.
RAÍZ weaves together:
embodied manifestation
adventure through nature
intentional rest
refined yet grounded luxury
Through curated excursions, nourishing cuisine, somatic practices, and sacred rest, you’ll be guided back to your essence — grounded, open, and aligned.
You won’t leave chasing inspiration.
You’ll leave embodying it.
Why 11/11?
The 11/11 portal is a powerful energetic gateway. A moment of heightened awareness, alignment, and manifestation.
On this sacred day, we will slow everything down.
This will be our rest, ritual, and manifestation day — an intentional pause within the retreat to integrate, receive, and consciously align with the next chapter you are calling in.
Through gentle movement, guided practices, ceremony, and deep rest, you’ll be invited to anchor your intentions not just in the mind — but in the body.

YOUR HOST
Luis Angel
is a retreat guide, yoga teacher, and sound healer whose work is rooted in presence, lineage, and embodied wisdom. Nicaragua is his father’s homeland and a place that has lived in his body since childhood — where he spent many summers forming a deep, intuitive relationship with the land, its rhythms, and its way of life.
RAÍZ is the expression of a long-felt calling to return and share this land through a deeply intentional and curated experience. Drawing from years of guiding retreats across sacred landscapes, Luis has crafted a journey that honors both the depth of the land and the need for rest, beauty, and integration. Through yoga, somatic practices, sound, and ritual, he creates spaces that invite participants to slow down, reconnect, and remember who they are — offering not a destination to escape to, but a place to return home.
THE CHEF
Chef Nico is a holistic private chef whose approach to food is rooted in nourishment, simplicity, and reverence for ingredients. His cooking is guided by the belief that meals are more than sustenance — they are an essential part of how we land in the body, regulate the nervous system, and deepen connection. With a focus on seasonal, locally sourced ingredients, Nico creates cuisine that is both deeply nourishing and quietly luxurious.
