How to get here

For all international travelers visiting Ecuador, we highly recommend flying into the capital city of Quito as it provides convenient access to the domestic flight to Catamayo, which is the closest airport to Vilcabamba, 1.5 hours drive away. 

Quito’s Mariscal Sucre International Airport (uio) offers direct flights to Ciudad de Catamayo Airport (loh) with aeroregional airlines. Typically this 50-minute flight is booked separately from your other flights to get to Quito. The recommended flight is the aeroregional departure at 5:00 pm on friday afternoon. 

Upon arrival at the Catamayo airport, a representative of the Abundant Living Retreats Team will be there to greet you and provide transportation to Vilcabamba via a shuttle van. 

Aeroregional Airlines

If you require accommodations before your aeroregional flight, there are several lodging options near the Quito airport. The EB Hotel, Holiday Inn and Wyndham Hotel have received positive feedback from previous travelers.

Personal Concierge Service

A personal guide to help you plan the best 14-day experience for your unique needs and health objectives. Another unique advantage of our Retreat is the commitment and concierge-style support of our Abundant Living Team before, during and after the retreat. Any and all questions answered at your convenience.

Custom Health Coaching

As a part of our included services, a certified holistic health coach works closely with each attendee, serving as a personal wellness concierge. Her role is to understand your individual health needs and aspirations, guiding you towards the most suited practitioners for your unique journey. You will be provided with 2 health coaching sessions: a pre-arrival intake session and a follow up session post retreat.

Instead of a one-size-fits-all program, we provide a wellness journey that is customized, thoughtful, and targeted to your unique health objectives.

Concierge Appointments with Practitioners

We help bridging the gap between you and our local experts and healers for a smooth and easy wellness experience. It can be overwhelming to select from so many great options of how to spend your 14-days. We provide guidance every step of the way and help you find the right practitioners for your unique needs and desires.

A Personalized, Long-term Approach

Our aim is not to just focus on your immediate health needs/concerns but to equip you with knowledge, experiences, and relationships that can influence your wellness journey long after your retreat concludes.
