STOKE YOUR SOUL

Santa Teresa, Costa Rica

January 26-31, 2025

Imagine This . . .

Wake up to jungle sounds, birds chirping, monkeys, palms swaying with the breeze, while gazing upon stunning ocean + mountain views. Then, sit yourself down to a farm to table Costa Rican breakfast prepared by a private chef. Later, saunter down to the outdoor shala for a soulful yoga practice, with the rest of the day ahead for you to explore and adventure. Throughout the week, feel playful and inspired with a courageous zip-line through the jungle, an epic hike to a magnificent waterfall, a sunset horseback ride on the beach, a fun surf session on one of the best surf breaks in the country, or simply stroll, shop, and explore through the desired town of Santa Teresa.

THIS is our offering - and this is YOUR time to Stoke Your Soul in Costa Rica!

FAQs

  • You'll fly from your departure location to SJO International Airport. Then catch a short local flight (20min) to Cobano.  There are two airlines that fly from San Jose to Cobano: Sansa and Green Airways.

    A taxi from the airport directly to sunrise mountain takes about 20 minutes and costs about $40. (Taxies hold up to 4 people, and we use a trusted Taxi service to help arrange your travel once you land. You can also use our service to go directly to town (about 25-35 minutes from airport) and this might cost a bit more, depending on exact location.

  • We purposely arranged for this retreat to fall on Sunday-Friday so that you have plenty of extra time on either side getting to the retreat center, or you may consider staying a little longer to soak up the magic of Santa Teresa.

    For the night before the retreat starts, we recommend staying at https://www.hoteltropicolatino.com/ It's on the beach, in a central part of town with a great natural spa.

    Here are other suggestions:

  • It is strongly suggested that you purchase travel insurance to protect yourself, your belongings, and your investment before, during, and after your time on the retreat. You can do this after you book your flight and pay the remaining balance. We recommend using www.travelguard.com
