La Reserva Itzá is a nature reserve and regenerative campus in the heart of the Guatemalan Maya forest.
Spanning 700 acres of Guatemalan jungle, La Reserva is a living laboratory where forest restoration, artisan craft, and cultural exchange happen side by side.
Come to breathe, to slow down, to grow. And in that space, you discover you're able to engage differently: with hands, heart, attention. The land restores you. You help restore the land.
This is not a place you pass through. It's a place you become part of.
[ Stay ]Renew. Rewild. Return.
We offer tailored immersions for travelers, makers, and groups who value depth over distraction. Experience the forest, the workshops, and the rhythm of a place in progress. Time to disconnect, participate, and find yourself rooted again.
[ host at la reserva itza ]Gather with Purpose.
Bring your gathering, retreat, or workshop to a space where the land does half the work. Craft. Culture. Land stewardship. We provide the context and space that deepens your work.
