Host Your Retreat in Nicaragua
An all-inclusive oceanfront venue for yoga, surf & teacher-training retreats
You bring the group. We handle everything else.
Still Salty Escape is an all-inclusive retreat venue on the uncrowded northern Pacific coast of Nicaragua.
We provide a venue that’s built for yoga teachers, surf coaches, and wellness leaders who want a turnkey home for their next retreat.
Oceanfront setting, two shalas, a private pool, chef-prepared meals, and an on-site manager so you can focus on your students instead of logistics.
Why Host Your Retreat at Still Salty Escape
Most retreat leaders don't want to coordinate caterers, drivers, housekeeping, and a venue from three time zones away.
At Still Salty Escape, it's one booking and one point of contact. We bring a barefoot, personal style of hospitality you won't get from a rented villa or a big resort.
We're located in Northern Nicaragua, away from the crowded San Juan del Sur corridor. Which means consistent, uncrowded surf breaks, real local character, and a price point that lets your retreat stay affordable (and profitable) compared to Costa Rica or Bali.
Everything handled for you.
Meals, lodging, yoga and meditation space, transportation to surf breaks, and on-site management are all built in.
You arrive with an itinerary; we make it run.
A genuinely affordable destination
Nicaragua delivers the tropical, oceanfront retreat your students dream about at a cost that keeps your retreat accessible and your margins healthy.

What Retreat Leaders Say About Hosting Here
"I could never come up with words to properly explain how much magic SSE has brought to my life. The location, the peace you feel the second you arrive, the rooms, the food, the nothingness, the somethingness, THE PEOPLE. I've hosted 3 retreats at Salty with another 2 scheduled for next year, and it just keeps getting better. A home away from home for sure."
— Victoria, Retreat Host
"We LOVED Still Salty Escape! Papito Rafa and the whole crew were so welcoming and wonderful. The weather, the waves, and the sun all added to the wow factor, but really it was the love from the staff and the details of the property that will keep us coming back. The food was delicious and non-stop. Somehow there was plenty of time to surf, get in two yoga practices, go on excursions, get a massage, and nap by the pool, and we felt very safe and tended to by Rafa and crew the whole time. If you are contemplating leading a retreat here, DO IT. You will not regret a single minute."
— Cara, Retreat Host
"I hosted my yoga retreat here, and it was beyond incredible. The staff are some of the friendliest, most accommodating people you could ask for, they go above and beyond to make sure every detail is taken care of with warmth and kindness. The food is amazing: fresh, healthy, vibrant, and thoughtfully prepared for every meal. The yoga shala is a peaceful haven, perfect for deep practice and surrounded by nature's beauty. If you're looking for a place to truly unwind, connect, and recharge, this is it. I can't wait to return!"
— Emmy, Retreat Host
