A Private Community Is Forming on a 

VOLCANIC LAKE

in El Salvador

Lake Ilopango is less than 30 minutes from San Salvador. Home to a community forming at the intersection of regenerative agriculture, Bitcoin sovereignty, and ancestral wisdom.

55 homes. Home starting at $750,000

Access begins with an in-person experience on February 1st.

WHAT IS ITZEL

ITZEL - LAKE ILOPANGO IMAGE

ITzel is where you land when you're done living inside systems that don't serve life.

ITzel isn't real estate. It's the land calling you home.

 

Here on Lake Ilopango's caldera rim, where Mayan communities once thrived in the Valley of the Corn, something returns. Not as nostalgia—as renewal.

 

Rick Scalzo's Kokora regenerative systems transform volcanic soil into living food. Award-winning architecture merges with crystal grids and quantum energy. Bitcoin-based ownership replaces traditional deed structures. Neighbors gather not by accident, but by resonance.

 

This is what happens when Wall Street wisdom meets shamanic intelligence. When corporate polish meets regenerative depth. When sovereignty-minded people stop waiting for permission and start building what comes next.

WHO BELONGS HERE

We curate our community with the same intention Lori infuses into every home.

You might belong at ITzel if:

  • Bitcoin makes more sense than the banking system
  • You understand regenerative at the cellular level, not as marketing speak
  • You've studied enough to know what you don't know
  • The phrase "living outside the matrix" resonates as strategy, not slogan
  • You want neighbors who challenge you to grow, not just wave hello
  • Ancestral wisdom and modern technology feel like natural partners
  • You're building something that outlasts you

If you're seeking escape, this isn't it. If you're seeking sovereignty, read on.


THE LAND & THE VISION

Lake Ilopango: Fire, Then Water, Then Waiting

Two thousand years ago, this wasn't a lake. It was a valley—Ilopango, the Valley of the Corn—where Mayan communities built, planted, and thrived until the volcano erupted with such force it changed the climate across hemispheres.

Fire consumed everything. Then water filled the caldera. Then centuries of waiting.

Now: renewal. The corn grows again through Kokora's regenerative systems. The community gathers again—this time as Bitcoin-aligned neighbors choosing consciousness over convenience.

 

This is why place matters.

FIFTY FIVE HOMES. INFINITE INTENTION. 

Every structure carries frequency. Lori's homes integrate:

  • Crystal grids mapped to sacred geometry

     

  • Quantum energy systems (scalar technology meets architecture)

     

  • Award-winning design that's been featured in Architectural Digest

     

  • Materials sourced from lineage—Lenca pottery, volcanic stone, handcrafted elements

Mary's development background (Disney, Warner Brothers, The Sanctuary Austin) ensures execution matches vision.

REGENERATIVE  ACTUALLY MEANS REGENERATIVE

Rick Scalzo built Gaia Herbs into a regenerative powerhouse. At ITzel, his Kokora food systems mean:

 

  • Soil that feeds itself and improves with every harvest
  • Food grown in living earth, carrying frequencies your cells recognize
  • Agricultural systems that give back more than they take

When we say regenerative, we mean biochemistry. Cellular renewal. Soil restoration. Not vibes.

THE FEBRUARY 1ST EXPERIENCE

Not a Sales Pitch. An Introduction.

30 people. One volcanic lake. A day that moves at the pace of genuine connection.

WHAT HAPPENS

  • Walk ITzel's land at 2:45 PM

  • Choose your perspective: helicopter over the caldera, boat across volcanic waters, or early arrival at Tres Piedras

  • Vision presentations from Ric Scalzo and Lori Morrison

  • Dinner overlooking the lake as the sun sets

  • Conversations that determine who becomes neighbors

WHAT DOENSN'T HAPPEN

  • Pressure

  • Pitches

  • Performance

This is curated introduction, not conversion event. We're looking for resonance, not resumes.

Space is limited to 30. Applications are reviewed individually.

BLACKCHAIN OWNERSHIP,  SOVEREIGN STRUCTURE

Traditional real estate asks you to trust the system. 

ITzel asks the system to prove itself.

Bitcoin-based tokenization means:

  • Transparent ownership

  • Global accessibility

  • Flexible structures

  • Sovereign property rights in a nation embracing Bitcoin

El Salvador isn't just crypto-friendly. It's rebuilding systems from the ground up. You're not moving to a country—you're joining a transformation.
