La NAIA Way: Awaken in Antigua

October 18–25, 2026
We’re thrilled to host La Naia Way: Awaken in Antigua—a 7-night, 8-day immersive experience in the heart of Antigua, Guatemala.

Nestled within the cobblestoned streets of this UNESCO World Heritage city, your home for the week is Hotel El Convento, an elegant boutique sanctuary that blends colonial charm with modern luxury. With its serene courtyards, mountain views, and candlelit ambiance, El Convento captures the essence of timeless Guatemala—spiritual, sensory, and deeply soulful.

This retreat is designed to awaken your senses and connect you to the rhythms of place, people, and purpose. Each day balances reflection, movement, and cultural immersion, with all meals thoughtfully curated from Antigua’s celebrated farm-to-table scene.

You’ll savor Guatemalan coffee at its source with a private coffee tasting and estate tour, hike the lush trails of Volcán de Pacaya for panoramic views and volcanic heat vents, and dive into the country’s craft and culinary traditions through a hands-on Guatemalan cooking lesson. Wander through artisan markets, meet local makers, and take home treasures and flavors that carry the spirit of this land.

Evenings are for connection and restoration—shared dinners in colonial courtyards, candlelit conversations under volcano silhouettes, and quiet time to journal or simply be.

Antigua, with its pastel facades and cobblestone charm, is both ancient and alive. Between its baroque ruins and buzzing cafés, you’ll find space to slow down, breathe deeply, and rediscover your own creative energy.
