A Visionary Retreat Center in Costa Rica’s Blue Zone

From the moment you arrive at the retreat center, something inside you stirs. It might be the distant call of monkeys echoing through the canopy, the inviting scent of native gardens warmed by the sun, the silhouettes of horses sauntering freely across the land, or the rhythmic hush of the ocean meeting the jungle. Whatever it is, you feel it instantly and intensely. This is a place unlike any other, a sanctuary that cannot be replicated. Nestled on 6.7 acres of pristine tropical landscape, the property is located approximately 750 meters from a government protected beach, an easy 8 minute walk to Playa Buena Vista, tucked between the beloved coastal towns of Samara and Nosara. Originally built in 2009, the estate has been thoughtfully developed to live in harmony with its surroundings. Here, nature is not a backdrop. It is the heartbeat of the experience. As the cornerstone of this estate stands Haven, a breathtaking 65 foot tall circular Grand Casita whose soaring architecture, full kitchen, four unique bedrooms, and open second floor loft create a sense of awe the moment you step inside. It is a structure that feels both ancient and visionary, a place where design and spirit meet. Winding garden paths lead to nine additional private casitas, each thoughtfully placed for privacy and each with its own personality. In total, the property offers 20 beds and 14 bathrooms, allowing you to host 24 guests comfortably, with room to expand capacity to 30. With abundant open space still available, the property invites future possibilities, including additional casitas, villas, or entirely new concepts waiting to be imagined. Currently operating as a retreat center, the property can effortlessly transform into a family compound, boutique hotel, Airbnb, or a spectacular private estate. Its layout, infrastructure, and natural beauty make it a canvas for whatever vision a new owner brings. Outdoor living is celebrated throughout the property. A serene pool sits cradled by tropical gardens, shaded lounging areas, and a smoothie and refreshment bar offering a peaceful refuge for rest and reconnection. Meandering pathways reveal meditation nooks, quiet garden pockets, and nature observation points that invite guests to slow down and breathe. One of the property’s signature elements is its open air pavilion, a soaring, breezy structure framed by jungle views. It is an ideal setting for yoga, movement practices, ceremonies, workshops, or corporate wellness programs, and has become a beloved gathering place for guests. At the entrance of the property, the social and operational hub welcomes visitors with warmth and ease. This building includes a fully equipped commercial kitchen for group dining, expansively covered open air eating areas, and inviting lounge spaces. There are also private quarters for retreat leaders or staff, along with storage, utilities, and back of house facilities that ensure smooth and efficient operations. Additional structures include laundry facilities, storage buildings, a reception area, and ample parking. With a proven track record of successful retreats and a strong foothold in Costa Rica’s rapidly growing wellness market, the property represents a rare opportunity. It offers either a fully operational retreat center or the freedom to create a personal vision in one of the country’s most desirable coastal regions. For visionary retreat leaders, hospitality investors, or those seeking to create an intentional sanctuary of their own, the property offers the perfect balance of refinement, nature, and possibility.
