Costa Rica Yoga Retreat

Costa Rica Yoga Retreat

In Costa Rica, the beauty of its rainforests, beaches, and mountains provides a peaceful backdrop for those on a journey of introspection, healing, and personal transformation. Here, you can connect deeply with nature, find inner peace, and explore spirituality in a vibrant, nurturing environment.


Join Kristen and Heather for an unforgettable all-inclusive adventure in Cahuita, Costa Rica - where the jungle meets the sea. Immerse yourself in the serenity of yoga, meditation, and healing workshops. With daily yoga and meditation you’ll have a chance to deepen your practice, connection with nature and to self. Experience adventures like snorkeling, surfing, visiting the sloth center, bird and dolphin watching, a delightful chocolate tour, zip-lining, waterfall hikes, kayaking, horseback riding on the beach, relaxing beach or poolside and more. This retreat is a beautiful blend of renewal, self-discovery, rest and bliss in the beauty of the Caribbean side of Costa Rica!


Our retreat offers an intentional space to slow down, tap in and come home to yourself, witnessing the oneness of all creation.. This retreat is for anybody looking for a deep sense of inner peace and gratitude for their practice and nature…a time of letting go, shedding old versions of ourselves and filling our hearts with light, authenticity and the deepest essence of peace. A space and place to be seen and appreciated, to be held and nourished, a place of empowerment and transformation.

This retreat center is a magical place, where the rainforest meets the Caribbean Sea. It is nestled in the lush jungle and a few steps from the Caribbean Sea, an intentional space perfect for disconnecting from the busy world and reconnecting with your true self.


All the logistics are taken care of from the moment we arrive at the international airport in San Jose. A private shuttle will be there to pick us up and so the retreat begins! Make note the dates changed as we will be staying Saturday to Saturday March 22-29 2025, rather than Sunday through Sunday.


The resort offers three different yoga studios to practice, all of which make you feel at one with nature. They have plenty of Yoga props on site. Fresh drinking water is accessible everywhere at the center for free. No plastic water bottles!!!! (If you know me, you know that brightens my world ).


The buildings are distributed over an area of 14 acres using the natural clearings in the forest to build the resort. The water in the rooms is heated by solar panels to cut down the use of electricity.


The accommodations are single, double and dorm rooms. The rooms are newly built. They are spacious and colorful and AC and Wifi is also provided in all the rooms.


Three vegetarian meals daily are included in the cost of the retreat. The delicious meals are made from scratch every day. Upon request and for additional cost, you may request fish, chicken and other seafood as well. They use organic vegetables and fruits locally grown. The retreat center composts all leftovers. This compost is put back as fertilizer in the garden.


The gorgeous swimming pool with a whirlpool and hammocks is an inviting place to refresh and relax. They even have a sloth friend that likes to hang out nearby!


In the spa, they offer a variety of massages like relaxing massages, deep tissue massages, Thai massages and much more...


A pristine beach 8 miles long is located 200 yards from the rooms.


You may also venture on additional excursions. There is something to offer for everyone, such as snorkeling, a tour of the Nationalpark, the sloth center, bird and dolphin watching, chocolate tour, surfing, zip-lining, kayaking, indigenous people and healing plant medicine, horseback riding and endless pristine beaches.
