About The Retreat Costa Rica

Founded on natural healing philosophies, The Retreat Costa Rica channels the very best of Costa Ricaโ€™s dizzying natural diversity to create a unique and gentle wellness experience for the body and soul. Delve into a technicolour jungle oasis in the countryโ€™s Alajuela province, just outside the city of Atenas, characterised by the treasure trove of crystal quartz buried beneath the mountain side, which lends its positive energy vibrations to every aspect of your stay. The water and spa treatments are infused with crystal energy, while the fresh and delicious produce grown on the resortโ€™s farm benefits from the richness of the soil, creating vibrant and inspiring menus which are free from grains and dairy.

The healing through nature theme extends inside, where each of the beautifully curated rooms enjoys breathtaking views of the surrounding valley, extending towards the shimmering Pacific Ocean. Personalised wellness packages focus on inner and outer wellbeing, using natural and organic spa treatments in the expansive Vida Mia spa, cooking classes and plant-based nutrition, and daily yoga practice to refresh and revive your mind, body, and soul.

The Rooms

Named after the rich variety of plants which grow on the property, each of the 18 rooms at The Retreat Costa Rica displays beautifully simple design choices designed to calm each of the senses and quiet the mind. Views of the expansive valley below take centre stage amid gentle colours and elegant furnishings, while diffusers filled with healing essential oils aid in your wellness journey.

The Experience

While wellness is the main attraction at The Retreat Costa Rica, it's impossible to resist some exploration of the country's astounding wildlife while you're there, and there are a myriad tours and excursions designed to introduce you to this fascinating ecosystem. Waterfall and volcano adventures, culture tours, and national parks all complement your healing journey, adding dimension to locally derived treatments and therapies.

Restaurants & Dining

Making the most of its plentiful surroundings, The Retreat Costa Rica serves up a vibrant array of organic, farm-to-table dishes with a focus on anti-inflammatory ingredients. Menus are chef's choice, changing and developing with the daily flow of the land to ensure you get the very best nature has to offer, while still being tailored to each guest.

Spa & Wellness

Spanning an impressive 8,000 square metres, the Vida Mia Spa forges a deep connection to nature through organic remedies, the metaphysical powers of the four elements, and views of the crystal mountain from each of the calming and spacious treatment rooms. From the signature โ€˜Heaven on Earthโ€™ massage to Ayurveda, crystal healing therapies, and organic, edible body scrubs grown on the resortโ€™s farm, each of the soothing treatments is designed to nurture and restore the body.

The Location

The Retreat Costa Ricaโ€™s prime location on a crystal quartz mountain aligns perfectly with its wellness ethos, allowing it to channel the deeply healing energies of the land. These positive energy vibrations permeate every aspect of your stay, woven into the food, the water, and the spa treatments. Itโ€™s also just a 45 minute drive to Juan Santamarรญa International Airport, for a smooth and easy transfer.
