Discover a different side of Costa Rica on our Costa Rica Women's Slowcation... Set at a private rainforest sanctuary near Dominical, this women-only Costa Rica trip is pura vida at its finest: unhurried days, local culture, nourishing meals, optional wellness experiences, and time to relax and enjoy Costa Rica’s wild beauty.

Exclusive Rainforest Experience: Arrive by private charter flight over the Pacific coastline to a secluded rainforest property, hidden away from crowds yet close to the nature and traditions that make this country so special.

Waterfalls, Coastal Beauty & Local Life: Swim at one of the area’s most beautiful waterfalls, spend time at the beach along the wild Pacific coast, and browse a truly local market in nearby Dominical. 

Wellness, Your Way: Music, gentle movement, bonfires, dancing, game nights, guided conversations, and a traditional blue clay ritual are woven into the week. Join what feels right, skip what doesn’t, and enjoy the week at your own pace. 

Welcome to Costa Rica! We'll catch a short private charter flight over the Pacific coastline, an incredible introduction to your slowcation. From there, it’s a short drive to the exclusive rainforest property, home for the next seven days.

Upon arrival, sip on a refreshing welcome mocktail, a brief introduction to the property, and time to settle into your room. The rest of the day is intentionally easy: explore the grounds, take a dip in the pool, or get some R&R before our first lunch together.

Later, we’ll gather for a welcome meeting to get to know each other better, followed by a fresh, nourishing dinner. Afterward, a local Costa Rican practitioner will lead a calming sound healing session. No effort or experience is needed; just sit back, listen, and enjoy.

Included:

• Transfers: Private charter flight

• Activities: Welcome meeting; Sound healing

• Meals: Welcome mocktail, Lunch, Dinner
