My mother and I have traveled extensively throughout central and south America. We have never traveled to the same place twice - there is so much to see! - that is, until now. Our experience at Panacea last year was so incredible we had to go back. We spent seven nights at Panacea, which is a 10 minute car ride... More

I really don't know what words to use to describe my overall experience and observations so I will try with simlicity. LIfe changing. Invigorating. Eye opening. Calm. Peaceful. Astonishing views. Food that you can't believe could taste so good and be ALL VEGETARIAN! : ). Hosts that make you forget that you aren't family. I went here last minute, no... More

This is a perfect getaway from the chaos of everyday living in fast-paced America. Set on the top of a mountain, Panacea helps you get back in touch with your inner peace. The owners have really mastered the art of hospitality. The cabinas are simple, but clean and comfy. They are set in different spots on a winding pathway, which... More

If you are truly looking for a vacation without all the typical distractions..Panacea delivers. Highlights (in no order): 1) No TV, limited cell phone reception, and no internet (*on the mountain). A whole week without being mindlessly glued to screen after screen after screen. No cell phone ringing at the breakfast table, actual dinner conversation (no option to Google the... More

My mother and I came here in the beginning of the new year for a fresh start -- rest, relaxation, some yoga and healthy food. We left with much much much more. This was by far the best "vacation" my mom and I have even been on, though "vacation," again doesn't seem to do it justice. The yoga is incredible.... More

I've just returned from my third trip to Panacea and I can't wait to go back again. Everything -- the location, the rooms, the food, the yoga classes, the pool exercises, the lovely resident animals, the hosts -- is perfect for experiencing peace, wellness, joy. I've been to fancy spas, to yoga ashrams, to lovely bed and breakfasts -- somehow... More

I arrived at Panacea and wasn't sure what to expect, a wonderfully relaxing escape or an adult summer camp. It was my first time traveling on my own and I decided based on the reviews and Peter's responses to all my questions that I would give it a whirl. There is something about the location of this retreat, and it... More

It had been a tough year and I needed a relaxing, healthy place to go for a week. Which is exactly what I got at Panacea. You may think, ugh...I don't want to get up for 7AM yoga. But, let this night owl tell you, you WILL want to! Mary is an excellent yoga instructor and starting off that way... More

I went to Panacea for the 2nd time in less than 1 year...and expected greatness. Most of the time when I expect anything, I get dissapointed. But, this was NOT the case. I went for the "spirit of yoga retreat" lead by the amazing MARY. And came home with so much more than I could have ever expected. There really... More
