For retreat leaders and facilitators
The whole mountain. One group at a time.
Bring your people to a licensed medical facility in the Andean hills — ten minutes from the international airport, and yours entirely for the length of your stay.

The problem
You did not become a retreat leader to run a building.
Most venues sell you a room block and leave you to run everything else. You end up chasing towels, timings, keys and a hundred small things that have nothing to do with why anyone came. By day three you are the operations manager of your own retreat.
Here the property is yours and the running of it is ours. You hold the room. We hold the building, the beds, the schedule and the hundred small things — and for everything that changes from group to group, we help you line it up rather than selling you someone else's version of it.
What taking the property means
Not a floor. Not a wing. The estate.
Twelve rooms. Sixteen beds. And with them:
- Twenty acres — gardens, walking ground, the farm
- The wet areas — saltwater pool, sauna, steam, cold plunge
- The biohacking room
- The clinical facilities, available to your group by arrangement
- The kitchen, with a farm growing food beside it
- The ceremonial ground, including the temazcal
Nobody else is booked in while you are here. No other group in the next building, no day guests wandering through your closing circle.

Who does what
What the nightly rate carries, and what sits on top
In the rate
- The whole property, yours alone
- Rooms and housekeeping
- A guest advocate — one person who answers everything
- The day-to-day running of your stay
- Event planning alongside you
Quoted on top
- Food — your caterer or ours, priced on your numbers and your menu
- Airport transfers, however your group wants to travel
- Anything clinical, after individual medical assessment
- Ancestral work, quoted separately
- Whatever else your programme needs
We price it this way on purpose. No two groups want the same thing — one wants a vegan menu and a van from the airport, the next wants a chef they already trust and a black Mercedes. A single package would overcharge the first and let down the second. So you take the property and the people who keep it running, and we build the rest to your brief.
Why here
Ten minutes from the international airport
José María Córdova International serves Medellín and connects across the Americas and Europe. Most retreat properties at this altitude and this quiet are three hours from a runway. Your people land and are here before the afternoon. Nobody arrives exhausted.
Why here
A licensed medical facility, not a venue with a massage room
Mountains of Hope holds a Colombian IPS medical facility licence. That is a different category of building from a hotel, and it is why things can happen here that cannot happen at a venue — diagnostics, supervised protocols, clinical oversight where a group wants it.
What this does not mean: we do not treat your participants as patients, we make no promise about anyone's health, and nothing clinical happens without an individual medical assessment first. The licence is a floor under the building, not a service in your programme.
Why here
Ancestral work held by people whose lineage it is
The temazcal here is run with Tambores Chasqui, a Colombian lineage of drum makers and medicine carriers. If ancestral work belongs in your retreat, it is held by people who carry it, not performed by staff.
Plant medicine work requires an intake beforehand and an integration day afterwards, and is quoted separately. It is never a line item you can simply add on.
Food
Grown here, cooked here.
Catering is quoted separately from the nightly rate, on your numbers and your menu. Use our kitchen and our cooks, or bring a chef you already trust. Dietary requirements are normal, not a problem — tell us early and we build around them.
Who this works for
Honest about fit
Because the wrong retreat here is bad for both of us.
This works if
- You have run retreats before and know what your programme needs
- Your group fits in twelve rooms — sixteen beds, more if people share
- You want the property to yourself rather than the cheapest bed rate
- You would rather pay for things to be handled than handle them
This is probably not for you if
- Your group is larger than the property holds
- You are testing whether you want to run retreats at all
- You need the venue to fill your seats — we do not sell your places for you
If that last list is you, say so on the call and we will tell you straight. We would rather lose a booking than take one that disappoints everybody.

“The facilities are absolutely stunning, set in the beautiful hills outside Medellín … The property is a landscaped oasis full of fruits and vegetables, all harvested daily for your juices and meals. I walked for hours enjoying the spectacular views and still didn't see everything.”
Mike Schmidt · guest review on Google
“First-class facilities, cozy rooms, the infinity pool with mountain views, the cold plunge, jacuzzi and sauna — among my favorites.”

What is on top: catering is quoted on your numbers and your menu. We can arrange your airport transfer at an additional cost. Anything clinical is quoted after assessment. Ancestral work is quoted separately.
FAQ
Questions people ask
How many people can you take?
Twelve rooms and sixteen beds — five rooms with a king, four with two queens, two with a queen, and a suite with a king. Thirty-two people at most. Tell us your numbers and we will tell you honestly whether they fit.
What is the minimum stay?
Three nights for the whole property.
How far ahead do we need to book?
Whole-property hires take enquiries for any date — there is no booking window. November 2026 is substantially committed already; December has meaningful availability.
Is there a doctor on site?
A doctor can be arranged on request, subject to availability. We do not keep a physician on the property as standard and we will not tell you otherwise. Tell us what your programme needs and we will tell you honestly what we can staff for your dates.
Can we use the clinical facilities?
By arrangement, and only after individual medical assessment. It is not included in the rate and it is not something your programme can promise on our behalf.
What about food?
Food is not in the nightly rate. We will help you choose a caterer, or cater it ourselves — it depends on your numbers and what you are eating, so it is quoted separately. Dietary requirements are normal, not a problem; tell us early and we build around them.
Can we run ceremony?
Ancestral work is held with partnered carriers and requires screening. It needs at least two nights — a day to arrive, the day itself, and a day to integrate. Your three-night minimum covers this comfortably.
Do you help us fill the retreat?
No. We run the property; you bring your people. If you need marketing support, we are the wrong venue and we would rather say so now.
Tell us what you are planning.
Not a sales call. A conversation about whether what you run and what we have are a fit, and a straight answer either way.
