pura vida, baby
Nestled between Pacific mangrove estuaries and the Tenorio volcano rainforests, Tamarindo is Costa Rica’s hidden gem that provided me with simultaneous grounding and liberation. I had the experience of a lifetime hosting a Best Life-ing eco-luxury wellness retreat in the gorgeous beach town. It was six days filled with magic, relaxation, and adventure, and I'm excited to share it with you all.
Our private client's group of 17 individuals arrived on the beautiful beaches of Tamarindo, Costa Rica, and from the moment we set foot on the ground, we were enchanted by the country's spiritual aura. The energy of the land and the people created a vibe that instantly put us all at ease, and we were ready to immerse ourselves in the experiences that lay ahead.
Each day was filled with activities that challenged and rejuvenated us. We started the day with morning yoga sessions that were held on the beach as the sun rose over the Pacific. The sound of waves crashing on the shore and the salty ocean air served as the perfect backdrop to our yoga practice. It was an opportunity for us to center ourselves and set intentions for the day ahead.
After our yoga sessions, we set out on various adventures. One day we went surfing, and another day we went zip-lining through the lush canopy of the rainforest. We also took a catamaran yacht day, where we sailed along the coastline, snorkeled, and saw dolphins jumping out of the water. The views of the coastline were breathtaking, and we felt connected to nature in a way that we never had before.
In the evenings, we gathered for dinner, and we were treated to some of the most exquisite farm-to-table meals that we have ever had. The food was prepared by some of the best chefs in Costa Rica, and the flavors were a blend of traditional Costa Rican cuisine and international dishes.
One of the most magical aspects of the retreat was the location itself. Hacienda Pinilla villas were luxurious, and we felt pampered throughout our stay. We had the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation, and we left feeling rejuvenated and reconnected with ourselves and each other.
Costa Rica is known for its spirituality, and our retreat was no exception. The land and the people were infused with a sense of tranquility and peace that we all felt. The experiences we shared created memories that will last a lifetime.
