About the Retreat
Paradise Found II is SALTY in perfect balance. We're booking into Orquidea del Sur — a 5-star villa property in the hills above San Juan del Sur, with three buildings, three infinity pools overlooking the Pacific and the surf breaks below, two on-site bars, pool tables, and enough lounge and social space that a group of this size can celebrate and find relaxation in equal parts. Everything you need, nothing you don't.
The sweat is the upgrade. We're able to dial up the sweat — daily Morning Crew or yoga at sunrise on the unbeatable yoga deck, SALTY Sweats before lunch, a SALTY Olympics day, and a Finale workout on Friday that'll be the hardest, loudest, last one of the week. Access to the world-class shala, poolside pilates, fitness room with weights and squat racks, and of course a sprawling sandy beach means we can workout in fun new ways every session.
The party is there for those who want it. Sunday Funday lands on Day 2 — San Juan del Sur's legendary day-to-night circuit, shuttle between stops, an absolute blast that you can hop-in or hop-out of as you wish! Through the week there will be the chance to surf, to read by any of the pools, to book massages, bedtime yin yoga, relax into paradise. Friday is all on the catamaran: full afternoon on the Pacific, swim stops, cold drinks, sunset over the water, then The Last Splash pool party back at ours.
25–30 guests. Enough to share in each other's energy when it's time to turn up the fun, small enough that by Day 3 everyone knows everyone's story. Come for the sunsets, leave with a buzzing group chat and memories to spare.

Finale, Boat, Splash
The Finale at 7am — one last big workout, loudest of the week.
