we’re going back to costa rica!

Costa Rica is one of the most magical places in the world, and sharing it with the Sweatfluence community has been unforgettable. We’ve searched high and low across Europe and the States, but nothing compares to our hidden jungle retreat.

Mornings begin with meditative beach walks and yoga overlooking the ocean. Days are filled with surfing, horseback rides along the coast, or relaxing in hammocks by the sea. The ocean is pure soul-healing—and for pool lovers, there’s a sparkling spot to dip into just steps away.

This will be Courtney's 10th time at Encantada and the 9th yoga retreat there. The staff has become like family, welcoming us back by name and remembering our stories, creating a seamless and heartfelt experience every time.

Our first week sold out quickly, so we’ve added a second! Private and shared rooms are available for week two—join us in paradise.

March 21 - 25, 2026
Encantada Ocean Cottages, Esterillos Este, Costa Rica

  • We’re staying in ocean cottages that are right on the beach!

    Tucked among palm trees and gardens, the style is rustic tropical meets boho chic—spacious, comfortable, and the perfect place to relax after a day of adventure. Guests love the cozy beds and soft sheets that guarantee the best sleep.

    You can sign up solo (we’ll match you with roommates) or as a group of 3–4. Groups must book with all deposits at once.

    Room Options:

    • Poolside King Cottage (sleeps 3): King bed, daybed, and loft twin. Includes A/C, Wi-Fi, fridge, walk-in closet, outdoor lounge.

    • Two-Bedroom Villa (sleeps 4): Master with king + twin, second bedroom with 2 twins. Includes full kitchen, A/C, Wi-Fi, private patio.

    • Garden View Cottage (sleeps 3): Two queens + loft twin. Includes A/C, Wi-Fi, fridge, walk-in closet.

    • Private Retreat Cottage (sleeps 2): King or two twins. Includes A/C, Wi-Fi, fridge, balcony + hammock.

  • Yoga: Two classes daily: an energizing power flow in the morning and a gentle evening practice. Our oceanfront yoga rancho has padded floors, a sound system, and all props provided (mats, blocks, etc.). Just bring a yoga towel if you like. Every class is encouraged, but this is your time—join in as much or as little as you want.

    Adventure: Choose from optional excursions to make your retreat your own: surf lessons, massages, horseback riding, waterfall hikes, ziplining, monkey tours, board rentals, and sound healing.

    Food: Enjoy three fresh meals a day from Encantada’s onsite restaurant, featuring both local and American favorites. Dietary needs can be accommodated.

    Relaxation: Most of all, this retreat is for rest. Disconnect if you’d like (Wi-Fi is available but not encouraged), sink into the rhythm of the ocean, and join in optional group reading and discussions for a deeper, shared experience.
