COSTA RICA RETREAT

Close your eyes and imagine it’s the middle of January, and 25 degrees outside. You’ve gotten through the holidays and are Spring seems impossibly far away.

But what if you could open your eyes and it was 85 degrees, and you were staying in a beautiful room at an eco-resort in Costa Rica, complete with daily Yoga, delicious meals, Pacific ocean swims, and the connection and community of your fellow yogis.

Well, this isn’t a dream.

The Osa Peninsula is on Costa Rica’s southern Pacific coast, and has been called the most biologically intense place on Earth by National Geographic. The area offers breathtaking scenery, secluded beaches, and abundant wildlife.

Blue Osa Yoga Retreat and Spa offers the perfect balance of a safe tropical oasis that is off the beaten path, while also being luxurious.

From the intentionally designed spaces and organic garden, everything at this property is shaped to give you space to connect with the land, yourself, and others, offering a clean, beautiful place for self-discovery and stillness.

Meals

Blue Osa has a strong commitment to serving nutritious, wholesome food that nourishes your soul. This is truly a farm to table family-style dining experience.

The organic garden provides much of the food that’s harvested daily.

The cuisine is light and delicious, and the daily meal plan generally includes tea/ coffee in the early morning, followed by breakfast, a light lunch, and a fabulous dinner (veg or non-veg). The meals begin with dinner on arrival day and conclude with breakfast on the day of departure.

Not Included With Your Retreat Fee

• Airfare to San Jose, CR, and then from San Jose to Puerto Jimenez. (We will give you guidance on flights if you reach out to us.)
• Gratuities are not included
  
• Extra services such as spa treatments and adventure tours
  
• Alcoholic drinks and smoothies are available but not included in your fee

WiFi and Cell Service

Blue Osa is an eco-resort, meaning the electricity comes from solar panels. (there is generator backup that is used in case of emergency) This is why only limited rooms have AC, though there are ceiling fans and breezes in all rooms!

Wifi is offered in the large dining room, which is a communal space. Wifi does not support zoom calls and streaming. Depending on the carrier, cell service can be spotty, but is usually best at the beach. It's important to keep in mind that one of the goals of Blue Osa, and of our retreat, is to unwind and unplug.

Other Activities at Blue Osa

There are a variety of other activities that can be booked upon arrival, such as:

• Jungle hikes
  
• Mangrove kayak tour
  
• Zipline canopy tour
  
• Bird watching tour
  
• Repelling down a waterfall
  
• Horseback riding
  
• Dolphin tour

Spa

There is also a beautiful spa on the premises that offers treatments and massages during the week of our retreat. Blue Osa's therapists practice a blend of holistic approaches and use natural botanicals from the Costa Rican rainforest.

This will truly be relaxing, beautiful, and will nourish your body and soul with sun, surf, movement, and connection.

In Costa Rica, you hear the term Pura Vida (POO-rah-VEE-dah) quite often. The literal translation is "pure life." But Costa Ricans often use it to express the joy we find in the simplest of things; a greeting, farewell, and even as a way to express gratitude. This will certainly be a week that will honor the spirit of Pura Vida, and we hope you join us.
