About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

Reconnect is a five-day retreat designed to help you slow down and reconnect with yourself, nature and community.

Over five days, we'll gently guide you through yoga, meditation, conscious breathwork, sound, time in nature and meaningful moments of connection, while also giving you plenty of space to rest, reflect and simply enjoy being surrounded by the rainforest.

There is no packed schedule from morning until night. We believe the quiet moments are just as important as the guided sessions. Between practices you'll have time to swim in our natural pools, explore the rainforest, enjoy the sauna and cold plunge, journal, read in a hammock or simply sit and listen to the sounds of nature.

The retreat is designed to support your wellbeing as a whole. Alongside daily yoga and meditation, you'll experience our signature Conscious Connected Breathwork Journey, an immersive sound journey, cacao ceremony, guided walks through the rainforest and food forest, Yoga Nidra, live music and a community fire circle beneath the stars.

Everything is shared within a small and supportive group. Meals are enjoyed together, conversations happen naturally, and many guests leave with genuine friendships as well as a deeper connection to themselves.

Whether you're feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, at a crossroads in life or simply wanting a few days to slow down and reconnect with nature, this retreat offers the space to step away from everyday life and return home feeling rested, grounded and refreshed.

Libélula truly felt like coming home
Libélula truly felt like coming home. From the moment I arrived, the jungle, waterfalls, and peaceful atmosphere made me feel safe and completely at ease. What stood out most was how deeply cared for I felt — before, during, and even after the retreat. The team was incredibly warm, present, and supportive, and having a dedicated facilitator made the whole experience feel very personal. The ceremonies were held with so much love, respect, and authenticity that it never felt like just a retreat, but a real process of healing and transformation.

A place that truly holds you
My time at Libélula Retreat Center was deeply meaningful and truly transformative. From the moment I arrived, I met a genuine warmth and kindness that made me feel welcome.
The facilitators held the space with integrity and wisdom so that I felt safe to open up and go deeper.

There was a quiet, powerful transformation that unfolded—supported by the loving atmosphere and the surrounding nature, which felt like an essential part of the journey.

It’s rare to find a place where you feel so held, both by the people and the environment. Libélula is truly a special sanctuary for anyone seeking connection, peace, and authenticity.

A Beautiful and Thoughtfully Designed Retreat Space
The setting is absolutely beautiful — शांत, well-maintained, and clearly designed with intention. You can feel that it’s been created to support rest, reflection, and a deeper connection with nature. The surroundings are peaceful, and the overall energy of the place makes it very easy to switch off from day-to-day distractions.

The facilities are thoughtfully put together, with comfortable accommodation and well-kept communal areas that lend themselves well to group experiences. Everything feels aligned with what you’d hope for from a retreat environment.

What stood out most was the atmosphere, there’s a genuine sense of calm and care in how the space is held. It feels like a place where people can really reset and recharge.

I’d definitely recommend Libélula Retreat Center as a venue for anyone considering hosting or attending a retreat.

Just WOW!!
What an experience! From the moment you set foot on the land you know this is place where magic can happen. From the structure of the retreat to the food, and the space that was held, great deal of attention was paid to every last detail in order to maximise the not only the experience but to also maximise the outcomes. One of the best retreats I have been to
