Luxury Costa Rice Wellness Trips made for you
Immerse yourself in nature on an exclusive Costa Rica spa retreat designed just for you
Extraordinary landscapes and transformative wellness experiences
Escape to a Costa Rica spa retreat for a precious opportunity to pause, breathe deeply and immerse yourself in the natural splendour of Central America. Here, misty cloud forests transition to volcanic regions, and dry tropical woodlands transform into mangrove ecosystems and the pristine beaches of the Caribbean and Pacific coasts.
Costa Rica is known for its sustainable approach to luxury and its wellness sanctuaries are world-leading, offering expert-led yoga and meditation, sophisticated spa treatments and wonderful wildlife encounters. In the Central Cloud Forests, remote retreats provide yoga platforms suspended above verdant canopies and specialised spas that work with local botanicals. In Manuel Antonio there are infinity pools at the forest edge and mindfulness sessions on secluded beaches. In Arenal and its valleys you’ll find the majestic Arenal Volcano standing sentinel over a region renowned for its geothermal waters. And, in the Osa Peninsula and the Central Valley Highlands you’ll find solitude and extraordinary biodiversity. Beyond San Jose, exclusive wellness estates occupy former coffee farms and on the Nicoya Peninsula and the Guanacaste Coast there’s beautiful beaches perfect for sunset wellness sessions.
Whichever region you explore, our tailored wellness experiences will aim to explore Costa Rica’s sustainability, while expert practitioners provide the ultimate in holistic wellness.

A word from one of our experts
Wellness travel in Costa Rica is unique because of “pura vida”, a concept that you’ll hear a lot about during your stay. The words translate to “pure life” or “simple life” and function as a greeting, farewell and life philosophy. Stay in Costa Rica for any amount of time and this relaxed, worry free attitude can't help but rub off on you.

When to visit
The most popular time to visit Costa Rica is the dry season from mid November to April, when most areas are dry, warm and sunny. Occasional blustery winds blow during January and February bringing the temperature down. During the wet season, from May to mid November, expect afternoon rains and sunny mornings – this season is also known as “green season” and is a special time to be in nature in Costa Rica.

Communication and organization were excellent. The Jacada team was helpful and genuinely interested in our experience. The guides were personable, knowledgeable, and clearly enjoy their work.
