In Their Own Words
We are deeply touched by the kind words guests share after their stay. Here's what some participants had to say:
"Staying with Johanne and Armando was like visiting your favourite cool aunt and uncle—so warm, familiar, knowledgeable, and full of vibrate life force. I entered the 9-Day Liver Detox Retreat feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and in urgent need of a full-body reset. I left feeling light, bright and clean—physically, mentally, and emotionally! The lagoon is pure magic and nothing beats bird and monkey watching in any of the on-site hammocks. Johanne and Armando were such great hosts that I decided to come back to Tambo Illusion the following week to volunteer! Being on the property and in the presence of Johanne and Armando made me want to work harder on myself and my goals, and to share that energy with others. Truly an inspirational experience!"
— Nellie S.
"This is my third-time returning to Tambo Ilusion and what a joy it was to come back! I came for a yoga retreat in 2015, a liver cleanse in 2016 and returned with my mom in 2021 for another 8-day liver cleanse. Johanne and Armando were incredible hosts and made our stay relaxing and beautiful. After the cleanse I felt rejuvenated and clear thanks to the food we ate and the environment we were able to relax in.
Since 2015, the Tambos have been beautifully renovated to include personal bathrooms with a spacious shower, and a screened-in front porch with two hammocks. We spent alot of time in our lovely hammocks reading, chatting and watching the monkeys, and birds in the jungle. It was really great to experience the additions.
The food was delicious throughout: healthy, beautifully presented, and colorful! We spent our days attending yoga classes in the mallorca, swimming in the lagoon, walking in the jungle, visiting Johanne's horse (in a field with a view!) and relaxing in our hammocks. I would highly recommend Tambo Ilusion for anyone who is looking for a relaxing and healthy jungle vacation."
— Karen E.
"I finished an incredible one week detox retreat with Joanne and Armando at Tambo Illusion, and it was a truly incredible experience. From the beginning they were so welcoming and made sure everything was set up perfectly in a nice peaceful environment for healing. The food was beautiful and I had the wonderful company of Joanne. She went above and beyond to make sure that I was doing well throughout the process and came up with remedies to help with my sleep. Whenever I asked her something she would have an answer or come back the next day having researched and come up with various suggestions. I felt so clean by the end of the week.
I also had an amazing time on the beautiful property that they have restored over the years. Armando has so much knowledge about the land and various healing properties of plants in the jungle. I had a beautiful swim each day in the lagoon and had the time to be at peace in my own thoughts in the setting.
What an amazing place and such beautiful people. I highly recommend going to Tambo Illusion for whatever your interests might be....health, nutrition, yoga, reiki, or even just to relax in such a beautiful place. Many many thanks to Joanne and Armando for helping me on my journey to a healthier life. I will be forever grateful."
