About Mexico
Why Mexico is an ideal setting for retreat work?
Mexico carries a long history with plant medicine with traditions that stretch back thousands of years through Mayan, Aztec, and Indigenous healing lineages.
The Yucatán Peninsula offers a rare combination of dense jungle, Caribbean coastline, and warm tropical climate. Our retreat center sits removed from any tourist corridor, surrounded by nature and designed for the kind of seclusion that allows guests to fully disconnect and turn inward.
For guests seeking the most accessible Ayahuasca retreats from the USA or beyond, Mexico is the closest location with a decriminalized framework around the medicine.
Setting & Accommodations in Mexico
Mexico's natural landscape plays an integral role in the retreat experience.
Before ceremony even starts, you will be in awe of the property. With such a truly unique design, and a ceremony space that’s like any of our other retreats, the photos here will speak for themselves.
Immersive Natural Environment
Set within the jungles of the Yucatán Peninsula on Mexico’s Caribbean coast, the retreat center is surrounded by dense tropical vegetation, open sky, and crystal-clear waters nearby. The seclusion of the property allows for a full separation from the outside world. Nature is woven into the rhythm of every day, from morning movement under the trees to evening integration under the stars.
Thoughtfully Designed Accommodations
Guests stay in comfortable private rooms designed for rest and quiet between sessions. The spaces blend the warmth of natural materials with the comfort needed for deep inner work. The balance between private rooms and communal gathering areas allows guests to move between solitude and connection at their own pace.
On-Site Amenities
Our Mexico center includes amenities selected to support relaxation and integration throughout your stay:
- Lush tropical grounds with walking paths through jungle
- Outdoor gathering spaces surrounded by natural canopy
- A dedicated space for yoga, movement, and breathwork
- Communal dining area with meals prepared fresh daily
- Temazcal (traditional sweat lodge) for ceremonial cleansing
These spaces create natural opportunities for both solitude and community at every stage of the retreat.
Space for Reflection & Integration
Beyond the ceremonial space, the property is designed to hold the process of integration throughout the day. Jungle paths, hammocks, shaded gathering spots, and open-air areas offer guests space to process what surfaces – through journaling, rest, conversation, or simply being present in the warmth of the Yucatán.
Retreat Experience
Every Mexico retreat is intentionally structured to balance depth with support.
Small, Intentionally Curated Groups
Each retreat is limited to a small number of vetted guests (11 max) for Ayahuasca retreats. This ensures personalized guidance as well as meaningful group connection.
Comfortable, Nature-Integrated Accommodations
The retreat property offers private rooms designed to blend comfort with the natural surroundings of the Yucatán jungle.
Organic, Nourishing Meals
Meals are prepared fresh each day with locally sourced ingredients, following the dieta protocol that supports ceremonial work. The food is designed to nourish your body throughout the retreat.
Thoughtfully Structured Days
Each day balances ceremony, reflection, integration, movement, and rest. The rhythm is intentional – giving you enough structure to feel held, and enough space to move at your own pace.
Safety & Screening
Safety is foundational to every Behold retreat.
Safety is non-negotiable. Every guest completes a structured application and comprehensive medical screening before being accepted. This process ensures the experience is appropriate for you and that our team can provide the level of care your journey requires.
Retreats in Mexico are led by experienced facilitators, including Puka Hampiy – a Medicine Man rooted in the Wanka Nation of the Central Andes, who blends traditional Andean-Amazonian shamanism with modern therapeutic approaches. Each retreat is held in a private environment designed for confidentiality, care, and close attention.
We only operate in areas where the medicines we work with are not scheduled as illegal substances.

Integration & Support
Transformation does not end when the retreat concludes.
Behold emphasizes integration through post-retreat support and access to an alumni network. Participants are encouraged to reflect, process, and apply insights within their daily lives with continued guidance.
