Details
If you’re in a season of transition—or simply craving a beautifully curated luxury yoga retreat—this retreat is for YOU. Nestled in the lush, tropical landscape of Dominical, Costa Rica, Connected in Costa Rica offers six days/five nights of intentional movement, deep rest, and a supportive, like-hearted community. Come ready to reset your nervous system, be held by nature, and reconnect with what lights you up—returning home grounded, clear, and deeply renewed. Imagine a week full of moments like this... Picture starting your day with birds singing in the tree canopy, feeling the warm jungle air, seeing the sunlight filtering through palm leaves, and sipping on your favorite coffee or tea delivered to your doorstep by magical Imiloa fairies. Take a peaceful stroll to the open-air shala for your morning meditation and yoga practice. Nourishing, delectable delights await you at breakfast, as you take your seat at a well-appointed dining table, served by the friendly and attentive Imiloa staff. Then you'll prepare for the day's excursion or relax at the infinity pool with expansive ocean views, book a massage, or discover the path to the river with the perfect spot to meditate. Your daily rhythm... completely immersed in nature, in the comfort of your luxury surroundings. Your daily commute takes you on beautifully manicured jungle paths, your eyes, ears, and nose are filled with the sound of birds and monkeys, with lush shades of green, vibrant tropical flowers like heliconia, torch ginger (emperor's rod), bird of paradise, and the scent of jasmine, orchids, and ylang ylang, all transporting you to the wild, raw state of the tropical jungle in its natural magnificence. You walk up to Imiloa's open-air shala, referred to as Home, which feels like a tree house, high up in the canopy, offering a magical tropical backdrop to move, breathe, and be still in nature. With your first step you can feel the deep spirituality of this place, tastefully decorated to create a minimalist, zen, calming space. Your breath connects to the breathing earth all around you. This is not yoga in a typical studio or fitness center. The oneness with nature leads you to Om, reminding us that we are connected to all sentient beings, to each other, to our planet, and to a force bigger than us. The welcoming, healing energy brings you back home to yourself. Each day blends yoga, meditation, nature, and uplifting community moments that bring joy, laughter, and a sense of belonging back into your body. From the moment you arrive, your whole body begins to exhale. Get a birds-eye view of lush Costa Rica aboard our 25-minute private charter flight from the San Jose domestic airport. Warm tropical air wraps around you as the scent of ylang ylang and jasmine let you know, you're not in Kansas anymore! Upon arrival at Imiloa, smiling staff members offer refreshing welcome mocktails and delicious snacks, followed by a special Imiloa welcome and a walking tour of the property. In the meantime your bags are being delivered to your room, waiting for you at check-in. According to your retreat leader, Amelia: "it feels like being received at Fantasy Island, with jaw-dropping sights, sounds, smells and smiles." You’re arriving at a sanctuary — a place to breathe, unwind, and return to the truest version of yourself. If you are in your 40s+... struggling with closing one chapter of your life unclear what your path is feeling overwhelmed lacking a sense of purpose or wishing you had something to really look forward to when you wake up in the morning. Can you imagine how exciting it would feel to embrace your true desires? Most exciting! As we dive deep into self-discovery, through guided introspection and desire-mapping, you will embrace your true desires so you can live aligned with your passion and purpose. This retreat will give you the space and tools to feel more ease in your body, calm in your mind, and at peace in your soul.
