Where the vibe shifts... and so does everything else - Grande
This space feels different — and the cast will too. Deep sound baths, tarot readings, emotional purging… it’s where walls come down and secrets slip out. The Dome is perfect for one-on-one coaching, psychic reveals, or soul-shaking moments when someone realizes they’re in love — or done.
Lighting: Dim, glowy, mystical — made for sound and secrets
Backdrop: Curved adobe, candles, echoey magic
Best for: Breakthroughs, spiritual curveballs, and “the moment everything changes”
Where love unfolds by the sea- Beachfront
With the ocean as your soundtrack and Caribbean light pouring in from every side, this is where the sparks fly — and sometimes fizzle. Picture a morning meditation turning into a flirtation, or a group breathwork session that ends with someone walking out. It’s stunning, cinematic, and emotionally charged — perfect for drama with depth.
Lighting: Natural, golden, and emotional
Backdrop: Palm trees, turquoise water, windblown romance
Best for: Emotional group scenes, sunrise intimacy, cast bonding or unraveling moments
The Rooftop Shala – Heaven
Where chemistry heats up under the stars
Nothing says slow burn like two people eye-locked in a sunset flow. The rooftop shala is elevated in every sense — open air, epic views, and golden light for those dreamy, almost-kiss moments. As day fades into night, it turns into a moody, cinematic backdrop for rituals, romantic breakdowns, and plot twists under the moon.
Lighting: Golden hour magic & dreamy dusk shadows
Backdrop: Sky, jungle canopy, endless horizon
Best for: Intimate partner work, sensual tension, moonlit ceremonies or big “reveal” moments
Sunset Seduction
Where sparks fly as the sun melts into the sea
Perched above it all with panoramic ocean views, Chica Rooftop is made for the kind of moments that feel too good to be true — and too beautiful not to film. After a steamy couples massage on the open-air terrace, cast members can slip into plush robes, sip cocktails, and watch the sun dip below the horizon in golden silence… or in a heated heart-to-heart.
This is where soft touches happen under palm shadows, unexpected kisses take shape, and two people realize the chemistry might be real. Or not. Either way, the light is perfect.
Lighting: Unreal golden-hour glow, perfect for romantic slow-motion shots
Backdrop: Ocean, sky, rooftops — all kissed by Caribbean sun
Best for: Post-massage intimacy, sunset confessions, emotionally charged private dates, dreamy B-roll
Where secrets are spilled in the shade | Skye Shala
Surrounded by lush jungle and the scent of copal, this hidden-away shala is where connections deepen — or detonate. It's the perfect setup for one-on-one conversations that start with soft eye contact and end with someone storming off barefoot through the palms. Secret alliances, stolen glances, and confessionals all feel at home here.
Lighting: Soft and mysterious — ideal for confessional vibes
Backdrop: Tropical greens, filtered sunlight, sacred stillness
Best for: Heart-to-hearts, “I need to talk to you” scenes, tension and tenderness
Where the healing gets raw, the breakthroughs get messy, and the storylines get real
Amansala’s signature rituals aren’t just wellness fluff — they’re powerful, immersive experiences that move energy, unlock emotions, and shift relationships. From Mayan clay ceremonies to breathwork and Temazcal, these moments naturally lead to catharsis, connection, and confession — the lifeblood of reality TV.
Each ritual is visually striking, emotionally loaded, and deeply symbolic, creating unforgettable scenes where the cast goes from surface to soul — often unexpectedly.
A night out on the town at Gitano Jungle Tulum
Mayan Clay Ceremony – Strip Down to the Truth
On the beach, under the sun, cast members cover each other in mineral-rich Mayan clay in a ritual of rawness, vulnerability, and trust. It's the ultimate “walls down” moment — bathing suits optional, egos not allowed.
Great for:
Deepening romantic bonds
Group emotional breakthroughs
Slow-motion sensual beach scenes
“This is when everything changed” moments
Temazcal – The Sweat of Rebirth

Group bonding through shared discomfort
Powerful B-roll (steam, fire, chanting, tears)
Cacao & Sound Ceremony – Hearts Wide Open
Set beneath the stars or inside our sacred Dome, this ritual blends cacao medicine with crystal bowls, breathwork, and energetic clearing. It’s where cast members soften, speak their truth, or release emotional baggage — sometimes in tears, sometimes in bliss.
Great for:
Heartfelt confessions
Spiritual awakenings
Deepening romantic connections
Breathtaking cinematography and sound
