"La Mezquita came along in my life at the exact time I needed them. Jolie, Klara, Pepi, Peter and Sansom are the absolute best. Sansom told me he and his staff “had my back” and they absolutely did. I can’t recommend them highly enough!. The group I went through the process with were kind, loving and caring people from all over the world. We all gathered there for all different reasons and we all gave eathother the space and room to learn, grow, and heal. If you are considering La Mezquita - take the leap - Sansom’s got you! Hope you meet Peter! He is a wonderful human being and someone I want to connect deeper with. He touched me in a deep and profound way! Thank you guys! It was nice to meet so many cool people. Namaste! "

"Lala has an exceptional talent for insight and guidance to brighten anyone's day."
"An amazing, loving and bubbly grandmother I never new I had."
"I had no idea what to expect coming to this retreat but now reflecting back I couldn't have picked a better place. The location, the team, the services and the atmosphere were all exceptional and literally mind blowing. I wish I could've stayed forever."
"They experience its a solid 10 points!!! Since arrival and up until the end, the level of service, commitment and care, for the customers is as valuable as it can get. We came as a couple and each one was able to have his/her own transformational, transcendental, personal experience. Food was natural organic and delicious. Fantastic experience overall with wonderful human beings.
Recommended 100% is an understatement."
"I just completed this retreat and I am so grateful for the experience! Samson and his team were outstanding and very attentive to all the needs of the group. The environment was safe and welcoming to everyone. Everyone was allowed to experience the journey in the way they needed and at each person’s own pace. I had group support as well as given my own space when desired. The food was outstanding and plentiful. The La Mezquita crew loves their work and it shows in the care and individual attention they provide. I highly recommend this retreat and the La Mezquita Team!"
"La Mezquita team is an amazing group of people who made my experience very smooth, safe and efficient. I felt truly cared about, supported and at the same time free to explore and find “my own way”. The food, the setting, people who were creating the setting and taking care of all the small staff and details - all of it was contributing to amazing retreat. I am really inspired and optimistic after the retreat at la Mezquita and feel grateful to the team for their efforts and care. "
"Abuela Munay and her partner Javi led an indescribable and authentic ceremony that was a true privilege to experience. She has the most infectious, soulful laugh and is full of compassion. I am so grateful to have had this experience in her company. A special person and a real treasure. "
"I had an incredible experience with the wonderful team at La Mezquita in early Feb. Munay and Javi led a phenomenal and authentic ceremony that was very ably supported by the empathetic Joshua, Pepe and Jake. Everyone in our group was very well suited and connected to one another easily. The food and ambience were excellent too. The beach is very close by as well for those who wish to visit it. The shared apartments were lovely and only seconds away from La Mezquita too - which is very handy! I felt supported during my stay and I will certainly consider the other experiences on offer in the future. I think there's even a potential to have longer retreats with an extra day before and after the ceremonies maybe. "
"APL are very professional. The team are all amazing people and they made me feel very supported, cared for and safe.

"I have previously experienced Ayahuasca in different settings and must say that this one was hands down, the best.
Such a warm welcome from the people and a loving house in the most beautiful nature.
There was no rush. There was plenty of time to arrive, to settle and to explore. Zero pressure.
I have felt so much love coming from the facilitators. Not only towards the medicine, but towards the act of service and fostering a safe and secure space where everyone feels relaxed and able to express their true authentic self.
There was no pretentiousness. It was a very loving experience that nurtures healing and rest.
It is truly the perfect setting for everyone who is looking for healing and transformation.
For me, it was the first time experiencing a Shipibo Shaman. My wildest imaginations were blown! José did truly an amazing job. There was so much wisdom and healing coming from him.
I am deeply touched and grateful to have experienced this in this lifetime.
Everyone who feels the call or curiosity to join this place, please do.
In comparison to other retreats that I have been to, this one has been the best (by far!).
I can highly and truly recommend it."
"Words can't describe how grateful I am for the energy and care Munay had for our entire group. "
"I can't recommend La Mezquita highly enough! The people, the place, the care,.. it would have been a fantastic wholesome experience even without the ayahuasca. 10/10, can and will recommend. "
"N/A"
"Great yoga instructor, fantastic communication and great interpersonal skills."
"So full of life, happy and fun!
Witty!
Full of maternal energy and very caring!"
"The trip overall was really great.
Well organised, clear schedule / itinerary, healthy food and nice to have a Europe-based retreat.
The trip would have benefitted from more rest days between each ceremony rather than people being exhausted between ceremonies."
"I’m naturally inclined and professionally educated to be skeptical, so I was reticent upon arrival. When I met the team, my hesitance diminished and my curiosity prevailed. By the time the experience was over, I was convinced I made the perfect choice for my first exposure to ayawaska. "
"A Whole New High is a sanctuary for the evolution of consciousness. The guides are incredibly gifted and wise. This is an experience everyone should undergo. Gratitude beyond measure."
"Massive gratitude for the session! Not only did it bring me clarity, but it tackled all my queries. I've gained practical tools for my daily life, and the transformation I'm experiencing already is beyond words – a definite upgrade from before."
"The teams year long experience with psychedelics, their psychotherapy and psychology know-how mixed with Psilocybin magic felt like embarking on an adventure of self-discovery. Thank you!"
"What stood out most for me was the genuine care and compassion that Jeanne and Cony infused into every aspect of their work. Their nurturing presence and commitment to creating a supportive community allows for vulnerability, emotional release, and authentic connection."
"I am truly impressed by a team of gifted and inspiring facilitators who seamlessly integrate both the western and shamanic approaches, creating an experience that truly embodies A Whole New High."
"incredible! highly recommended."
"It was such a beautiful treat as a first-timer to see that the shaman was a woman! When sitting at the altar, as she gives me the cup, I can't help but feel it's an angel, not a human being. Her face was lit by the candlelight. When she sang my entire body responded with all sorts of beautiful sensations. Her music brought me into my body like I've never experienced before. And when I had touch journeys, she was right there with me through it all. I am just so very lucky she was my shaman. OCAHE!"
"I can't say enough about this marvelous experience I had with Avalon. Everything was designed in such a way to make my journey a most wonderful one. I felt held and supported. For someone who has difficulty asking for help in the real world, this was an exercise of total surrender that I will hold close to my heart forever. I went full of fear and doubt if it would work for me, if it works at all etc... and I left with way more than I could ever expect. I was contemplating an ayahuasca retreat for around 8 or 10 years. I wish from the bottom of my heart that I had done it earlier. But all happens in good time. If I were to do it again, Avalon would be where I would go. The shaman, the music, the location, the venue, and the support team (those we met and those behind the scenes) were all so beautifully orchestrated into the most beautiful work of art to give us the experience of a lifetime. I highly recommend them. "
"Prior to this retreat, I was trying everything to improve my mental health for more than 30 years, but everything felt like a shot in the dark. The retreat helped me to see my destination and plot my course forward. I was able to clear away old hurts and move around blocks. The team assembled for our retreat was caring, passionate and knowledgeable; they knew the right word to say at the right time. I feel more like myself than I have in many years. Living true to my inner self is such a gift. I still have work to do, but I now clearly know my direction and feel such purpose and peace every day. It wasn’t what I expected, but it was exactly what I needed. I truly consider the group retreat one of the best things I have ever done and strongly encourage everyone to embrace this experience."
"Insightful and incredible psilocybin therapy session that provided a clear experience of the transformative power of psychedelic experiences."
"I attended the 4 day psilocybin retreat and would highly recommend La Mezquita for a budget friendly dive into the world of psychedelics. The atmosphere was welcoming and relaxed, the food all home cooked and delicious, the ceremonies were well managed with a high staff to guest ratio. "
"I have already been to a few retreats before but this one stuck out.
They had 4 really good musicians there who played amazing music throughout the ceremonies.
Also the facilitator to participant ratio was really high so you could always get support.
Not to mention the food: At every meal they provide you with a lot of homemade, healthy and delicious options (Sanson does an incredible Maroccan Tangine)
Well deserved 5 stars!"
