About Serenity Vista
Serenity Vista is a welcoming, private, and affordable place to start fresh. Led by a caring team with over 55 years of combined experience helping people overcome addiction, Serenity Vista is designed for adults who are ready for real change but want privacy and comfort along the way. With space for only 4 guests at a time, everyone receives personalized attention and support. Through 30, 45, or 90-day programs, clients can heal deeply and find lasting peace.
Uncover New Layers of Self
Serenity Vista’s approach goes beyond simply addressing symptoms; they uncover the deeper layers of someone’s life. Set in a natural environment, guests experience a space where recovery feels safe and private. With a limited number of clients, each person receives attention in a respectful, confidential setting. Therapies like music, sound baths, drumming, yoga, and art open doors to expression when words fall short, while meals and meaningful conversations—even over breakfast—create moments of connection that can be just as transformative as a therapy session.
Savor Community and Adventure
With space for just 4 guests at a time, everyone has their own private room, while still enjoying the warmth of a close, supportive community. Days are filled with family-style meals—homemade Panamanian specialties prepared by the owner—where stories are shared and connections naturally form around the table. Between rainforest hikes, ziplining, horseback rides, coffee tours, island adventures, and weekly spa days, there’s no shortage of fun and restorative experiences.
Carry Support into Daily Life
At Serenity Vista, recovery doesn’t end when clients leave—it continues through connection and care. Aftercare is about creating a rhythm: staying in touch with Serenity’s owners through WhatsApp, setting up that first 12-Step meeting, or receiving a heartfelt “really nice connecting last night.” These gentle check-ins bridge the gap between treatment and everyday life, reminding you that you’re supported, understood, and never alone.
