Is Our DesignYourBliss Flexible Yoga Retreat in Nicaragua Right for You?
It is for you if:
You love being immersed in nature and appreciate the chance to stay in a unique, rustic-meets-boutique space on the shore of a volcanic crater lagoon in Nicaragua.
You enjoy nourishing, home-cooked meals made with love and attention, featuring a nutritionally dense and fully plant-based menu.
You want to be based right by the water and have access to a public (yet feels like private) beach by walking 3 minutes.
You’re excited to explore the Laguna de Apoyo Nature Reserve—a tropical dry forest with unique wildlife and native flora.
You want to be close to some of the most memorable sights in Nicaragua.
You love animals and supporting their wellbeing is something that matters to you.
You want to be well looked after. Our team is here to serve you and we do everything in our power to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.
It is not for you if:
You’re seeking a luxury stay. Villa Laguna is an eco-conscious, homely space made with natural materials—comfortable, clean, but intentionally low-impact. There’s no A/C.
You’re not on board with a plant-based lifestyle. Our gourmet vegan menu is thoughtfully crafted to exceed nutritional needs while avoiding animal products entirely.
You don’t like bugs or other little creatures that come inherently with living in nature. It is not all cute monkeys and fireflies when you live in a Natural Reserve. We do our best to try to keep any unwanted companions at bay, but you might have to encounter one at some point and we hope you will be super cool about it :)
You have a pet dander allergy. With 10 rescue cats and 4 rescue dogs onsite—and occasional visiting pets—we do our best to keep everything clean, but we can’t call it a pet-free environment.

What Our Guests Say About Their Yoga Retreat Experience at Villa Laguna
“This trip was more than what I ever expected. Beginning from Yoga to the food to the Villa. Miriam and Saffron are amazing yoga and meditation instructors, my daughter and I will include much of what we have learned into our daily practice. The yoga space allowed the most beautiful view and sounds. The food was prepared with the best ingredients, every meal was delicious and prepared with so much love, a feast for the eyes and for the mouth. We instantly connected with the other visitors, I think Villa Laguna attracts similar people and it was such a joy to spend time with everyone. The yoga instructors, the cacao ceremony, the massage, the views, the sound and the beautiful laguna, the hammocks, all amazing and I will live on these memories and treats for a long time. We had such an amazing time. Miriam made everything so easy, the pick up from Managua, changing plans upon request with pick up, she is always available and always so helpful. The animals at the Villa are an extra treat, the social ones visit at times and bring a fun and loving energy, and it is so nice to see them around the property. The staff is so friendly and kind, I love that they are from the community in the area, some are related and it makes the atmosphere very warm. This was a wonderful experience, we could not be happier with our memories.”

“I stayed at villa laguna for 5 days, taking part in the ‘DesignYourBliss’ Yoga Retreat. From the moment I walked in, Miriam and the team made me feel so at ease and at home. Travelling solo can sometimes feel daunting, but the retreat has an intimate feel to it that allows you to get to know other guests, sharing stories around the breakfast and dinner table. The yoga was lovely, and really encouraged me to reflect and meditate more within my practice. I also took part in a cacao ceremony and somatic massage which really encouraged me to leave worry behind and focus on the present moment. The plant-based food was SO GOOD. I’ve never eaten better veggie food, it was delicious and made my body feel so nourished. Last but not least the laguna is so so beautiful. You are truly surrounded by the jungle and wake up to bird calls and the sounds of gentle waves. Thank you to Miriam and your team for going above and beyond. I loved every second.”
— Jessica T.
“The DesignYourBliss yoga retreat at Laguna de Apoyo felt like paradise, thanks to Miriam, our wonderful yoga teacher Saffron, and the lovely team! The yoga classes were amazing, and the vegan food was truly out of this world. I enjoyed every minute here – whether we went out on an adventure and hiked the Mombacho volcano, or just spent a relaxed day lying in a hammock, reading, swimming, and soaking up the sun, the peace and tranquility of the lagoon and the beautiful nature around it. I am beyond grateful for this unforgettable experience. Seeing all the love, but also the hard work, Miriam has put into Villa Laguna and into creating these retreats with so many special details is incredible and inspiring!”
— Magdalena G.
