“Great spot if looking for peace and quiet. Also, it’s a very short walk to Zamna. So it’s perfect if going to a concert there. The two friendly dogs on the property were a bonus.”

Welcome letter, disclaimer and terms & conditions.
These visits are for you. For you to retreat, reset, recharge, redefine and realign with nature, your nature, your truth, and your purpose.
You’re on this planet to grow into your most authentic self, and we’re honored to guide you. To create a safe and transformative space for all, please heed the following:
1. Respect & Community
We live and learn as one community. Treat yourself, others, and the land with gratitude, patience, kindness, consent, and presence. Silence and respect during potential sessions keep the space sacred for all.
2. Nature, Safety & Conduct
Help us preserve this zero-waste sanctuary: don’t litter, but separate recycling, keep the space clean, and respect all beings. No alcohol, smoking and/or tobacco products, drugs, or animal products, nor when we are in public spaces. Please turn off the AC when leaving your quarters, or management is required to do so. Always take a shower before using the pool(s), especially when coming from the beach, yoga/sports and/or a field-trip.
3. Health & Responsibility
If you join us for our retreats and/or related activities, All activities are voluntary and at your own discretion and risk. We encourage stepping out of your comfort zone, like trying a cold plunge, but never beyond what feels safe to YOU. Inform our team of any medical or psychological conditions that may be affected by deep mental, emotional and spiritual work, fasting, a sweat-lodge, water and/or any other activity, and follow organizer guidance at all times.
4. Liability & Mutual Indemnification
For our retreats and general visitors: Though our team will do everything to keep you safe and supported, participation involves natural risks, especially during physical, aquatic, and ceremonial activities. You agree to release, hold harmless, and mutually indemnify Liefs Retreats, Rancho Verde, and facilitators from any claims or (consequential) damages, except in cases of gross negligence or willful misconduct.
5. Privacy, Media & Testimonials
For our retreats: A professional photographer will document your journey beautifully. Please avoid personal photography or phone use during sessions to stay fully present. You grant permission for respectful use of retreat content and we kindly invite you to share a short testimonial at the end to help others rediscover their purpose.
This disclaimer protects both you and us, ensuring your retreat unfolds in trust, safety, and purpose. Thank you for choosing to grow with us: one breath, one meal, one moment at a time.
Kindest Regards, Your hosts at Rancho Verde
