Highlights
A Week Built Around Community
One of the most special parts of a retreat is the sense of community that forms when people step away from everyday life and share an experience together. Over the course of five days, guests move, explore, dine, and relax side by side in an environment that naturally brings people closer. Many arrive knowing no one and leave feeling like they’ve gained an entirely new circle of friends.
Movement in an Inspiring Setting
Each day begins with a guided meditation, creating a quiet moment to ground and center before moving into an uplifting morning class. From there, the day opens into time for exploring, relaxing, or enjoying the villa before coming back together later for additional movement sessions. The rhythm of the retreat is designed to feel energizing yet spacious, offering the perfect balance of activity, connection, and downtime.
Opportunities for Adventure
All guests will have the opportunity to partake in additional adventurous offerings, if they so choose, such as our La Leona Waterfall Hike and a Private Group Surf lesson. these experiences are not included in your trip and are completely optional.
La Leona Waterfall
A highlight of the week is our guided journey to La Leona Waterfall, one of Costa Rica’s most stunning hidden gems. The hike winds through tropical jungle terrain and crystal-clear river crossings before revealing the waterfall’s dramatic canyon setting.
Exceptional Meals and Shared Dining
Food is a central part of the retreat experience, bringing everyone together around the table at the end of each day. Guests will enjoy beautifully prepared meals that highlight fresh ingredients and vibrant flavors. These shared meals often become some of the most meaningful moments of the week.
Curated Dinner at Agua Salada
One evening, we’ll gather for a special dinner out at Agua Salada, one of Tamarindo’s beloved local restaurants. Known for its vibrant atmosphere and beautifully crafted dishes, Agua Salada offers the perfect setting to enjoy Costa Rica’s coastal flavors while connecting as a group.
Surf-Town Setting in Tamarindo
Tamarindo offers a vibrant blend of natural beauty, ocean air, and laid-back energy. The town is known for its beautiful beaches, lively restaurants, and welcoming atmosphere that makes visitors feel instantly at home. It’s the kind of destination that naturally invites exploration while still providing a peaceful escape from everyday routines.
