FIVE DAYS
FIVE ELEMENTS
GRAN CANARIA, CANARY ISLANDS
A 5-DAY
NERVOUS SYSTEM
HACKING RETREAT
JANUARY 14 - 19, 2026 — GRAN CANARIA, CANARY ISLANDS
At Finca Rural Los Tanquillos, five days stretch wide under Gran Canaria's open sky.
A secluded eco-retreat tucked into the mountains of San Bartolomé de Tirajana - sun-drenched stone, clean design, and silence that holds you.
You'll wake to stillness and wild light. Swim in the private pool.
Move through strong yoga and soft rituals. Breathe mountain air and taste food that's as alive as the land around it.
Each day follows the rhythm of the elements: earth, water, fire, air, and space. Root into volcanic ground.
Feel the island's warmth rise beneath your feet. Let salt and breath move what's been stuck.
This is not a break from life. It's a return to your own pace.
Begin the year in rhythm.
This retreat offers something essential. Space to listen. Structure to support you. Practices that reconnect you to the elements - and to yourself.
Set on the warm south coast of Gran Canaria, this 5-day experience brings together yoga, breathwork, holistic nourishment, and grounding nature to restore your body and mind after a long year.
Remembering.
Returning.
Rebalancing.
Remembering. Returning. Rebalancing.
THE SPACE WE’RE CREATING
A curated immersion designed for nervous system regulation, immune support, and intentional rest.
Daily yoga: strong mornings, slow sunsets
Guided breathwork, meditation & somatic tools
Deep relaxation massage and Reiki available on request
Pool with view on the desert like landscape

Gran Canaria is called the miniature continent - an island where desert, forest, and sea meet within an hour's drive.
Our retreat unfolds in the quiet south, where the land feels ancient: palm groves, dragon trees, and volcanic cliffs reflected in the Ayagaures reservoir.
The air is dry and warm even in winter.
The nights open wide with stars.
Here, the landscape itself becomes your teacher - grounding, simple, alive.

FINCA LOS
TANQUILLOS
Tucked into the volcanic landscape of southern Gran Canaria,
Finca Los Tanquillos is a warm, grounded luxury - built for rest, space, and connection to nature.
Surrounded by wide mountain views and raw island silence, this 300m² eco-finca offers a sense of privacy that's rare - yet just a short drive from the ocean and wild coastal hikes.

This is not a hotel.
This is a home for your nervous system.
