The shape of a day
Structure in the morning. Space in the afternoon.
Each day follows the same simple rhythm, so your body settles quickly even while everything around you is new. Everything is optional, including dinner.
Move
Sunrise yoga, breathwork or a walk on the beach.
Go
The volcano, the waterfall, the village. Out with a local guide.
Yours
Nothing planned, on purpose. Nap, swim, read, wander.
The table
Dinner together, local food, one long conversation.
The circle
Sound, fire, stars, or an early night.

Who comes
You don’t need to find yourself. You need to be somewhere long enough to notice you’re there.
Founders, creatives and people who are good at their lives and tired inside them. Solo travelers who want company. Yogis and the wellness-curious at every level. Every guest applies, so the group fits together.

Questions
Before you apply
How do I hold a place?
Apply through the planning form. Once we’ve talked, a $500 deposit holds your room, and the balance can be split into payments before the trip.
Do I need yoga or meditation experience?
No. Sessions are built for every level, and everything on a detour is optional. If you’d rather sleep in or sit by the water, that counts too.
Can I come on my own?
Yes. Many guests travel solo. You can book a room for yourself or share with a friend or partner.
Are flights included?
Flights are yours to book, so you can come from anywhere. Everything on the ground is covered, including airport transfers, and we send route advice for New York and Los Angeles.
Why does everyone apply?
A small group works best when the mix is right. A short application and a call help us put together a group that gets along.
