Hot Mess: Yoga + Surf Retreat in Costa Rica

-

at Boca Sombrero (Osa Peninsula
Costa Rica Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica )

It’s too good to be true! 
(You must say: I do). 
There’s no better place
To don jungle lace.
A throuple of old ladies (well some more than others)
Will most surely fulfill all of your druthers.
Is hot, sweaty yoga your idea of a good time?
Or Costa Rican rum - with a garnish of lime?
Perhaps you hanker for two surf sessions a day?
After 20 years on the Osa, we know how to play.
Waterfalls, horses, a cornucopia of food,
Hammocks and swimming pools if low key is your mood.
Nikki and Schuyler lovingly kicking your booty.
Alex waxing poetic (and her booty hirsutey).
So quick - pack your bags
And join us old hags!
If you love getting wet,
This retreat’s a sure bet.

A little about the surf: This is one of the warmest, most pristine spots in Central America. It's a perfect place both for newbies to learn to surf and for experienced surfers to rip it up without any agro locals dropping in on them. The private beach break at Boca Sombrero is ideal for beginner and intermediate level surfers. No rocks! (A few miles away is Matapalo—a world class point break). If you're not a surfer—and determined not to be converted during our week together—you'll have plenty to keep you busy. Besides the copious yoga, near the retreat center you will discover waterfalls, gorgeous hiking trails, and tide pools. And we can all meet up at the sweetest bar south of the border.

DISCLAIMER: If you venture to the wilds of the Osa, you might quit your day job and go permanently off the grid. Don't blame us. You've been warned.

*please inquire if you would like suggestions for extending your trip either at Boca Sombrero or elsewhere in Costa Rica.

Flights:
One flight to SJO (San Jose, Costa Rica)
Connecting flight to Puerto Jimenez, Costa Rica.

We recommend using
Sansa for the connecting flight.
You need 2 hours between flights to make the connection.
Therefore: plan to land in San Jose before 12 noon if you want to make the trip in one day. Otherwise we can suggest hotels for an overnight in San Jose.
We usually stay at the Marriott San Jose in ALAJUELA. Next door to the airport and very easy for early connections.
Please do not book an international flight without first looking over the local flight options to Puerto Jimenez the day you wish to connect.

Vaccination is not required for entry to Costa Rica; however, it is required for this retreat out of respect for those who live and work at Boca Sombrero, our colleagues and friends for 20+ years. Thank you for respecting this policy.
