Baja Cleanse sits where the desert runs into the sea, on the East Cape of Baja California Sur. It’s a small retreat, built around healthy food, ocean air, and enough quiet to actually hear yourself think. Every stay is shaped around you, whether you’re coming alone, with a partner, or with a few close friends.
A day here
Mornings start slow. Coffee on the terrace, the mountains still catching the early light. From there, the day is yours. Walk a desert trail past cactus and boulders. Kayak through the mangroves, or take a boat out on the water. Ride a horse along the beach. Or do none of it, and just sit with the water.
Meals come from what’s in season, picked close to home, and built around your cleanse. Fresh, full of flavor, and made to leave you feeling lighter rather than deprived.
Evenings wind down with a body treatment, a stretch, or nothing at all.
Where you stay
Two casitas, private and close to the sea, built from stone and thatch with views that don’t quit. Each one has its own quiet corner to read, rest, or just watch the light change.
what people say
It is truly one of the most incredible hidden gems on the planet.

Mental
Slow down enough to actually notice what's going on in your own head.
Physical
Release what your body's been holding onto, through the detox protocol, movement, and rest.
Emotional
Let go of what you've been carrying. There's room here to feel it and set it down.
Spiritual
The quiet here makes space for whatever guides you, however you define that.
Ways to go Deeper
Mountain hot springs
Natural pools tucked into the rocks near Santiago, a short trip up into the mountains. One of the most requested days of the week.
Heart centered movement
Chakra work, stretching, and just enough sweat to feel good.
Plant medicine journeys
Ceremonial work with trusted local guides, for anyone ready to go deeper.
Who comes here
People come solo, in pairs, or with a small group of friends who’ve been promising each other a trip like this for years. Guests have ranged from their late twenties to their late seventies, men and women both, some marking an anniversary, some just needing a full stop.
Beyond the retreat
A few things guests often ask for. A trip up to the mountain hot springs and waterfalls near Santiago. Movement sessions built around stretching and slow, steady effort. Guided ceremonial work with trusted local guides, for anyone who wants to go deeper.
If you're ready to slow down and feel it, this is where that happens
