Experiences…

Daily Yoga and Meditation
We’ll start each morning centering our minds with guided meditation and breathwork. We’ll then flow into movement calling energy into our bodies and spirits. You can find us on the yoga deck for these stillness and movement offerings.
Indigenous Cacao Ceremony
Our Costa Rican friend, guide, and fellow yogi, Karla, along with the Indigenous Cróku Íricunúca, have curated this special experience for us. We will explore the indigenous territory to include hiking, and swimming in the Rio Celeste. This adventure also includes a chocolate tour complete with a traditional cacao ceremony.
Jungle Yoga
Karla Corrales will lead this unique experience by first guiding us on a meditative hike through the jungle. Upon reaching the waterfalls, Karla will guide us through a 1 hour yoga class on a beautiful yoga deck overlooking the waterfalls. There will be time for a post yoga swim in the freshwater pools before heading to lunch where we will feast on a delectable traditional Costa Rican meal.
Volcano Hike
Join us for a challenging and rewarding trek up Cerro Chato. If you love to hike and you’re looking for a physical and mental challenge, this hike is for you. Ascend this inactive volcano into the lush green that is the Costa Rican jungle. Upon reaching the top, you will have the option to climb down into the crater for a refreshing swim. We will offer this hike on your free day. You can choose to join the hike or explore other activities independently.
Culinary Classes
With a dash of this and a pinch of that, we’ll learn how to make traditional Costa Rican cuisine from a local chef.
We are commited to making the retreat affordable at only $2300 per person.
