Casa Kāma
Ground, reconnect, and come home to yourself
Quepos’s tropical edges give Casa Kāma its particular rhythm: birds in the canopy, fruit trees and herbs around a finca, and space to turn attention inward without separating practice from the body. The retreat is oriented toward queer communities, especially gay men, with healing programs and events built around tantra, embodied practice and reconnection. A meditation and yoga room, terrace, and a cochera that can be converted into a studio create several settings for gathering, while the 5,500-square-metre grounds encourage quieter time outdoors. Meals follow a flexible approach rather than a single strict diet; listed options range from vegan and vegetarian to pescetarian and meat-inclusive, with gluten-free and dairy-free choices. The property sits just outside Quepos, making it a nature-led base rather than a remote wilderness outpost. Retreat dates and programming vary, so check with the host before making travel plans.

Setting
The 5,500-square-metre finca just outside Quepos brings together tropical greenery, fruit trees, herbs and vegetables, with birds and jungle life lending the grounds a lively, grounding feel. A terrace and meditation and yoga room offer quieter places to gather or practise.
The practice
Practice at Casa Kāma brings together tantra, healing work, yoga and embodied attention. Rather than presenting a single formal lineage, its retreats create space for participants to reconnect with themselves through guided practice and time in nature. Beginners curious about this approach can ask the host which retreat format best matches their experience and comfort level.
A typical day
The daily rhythm depends on the retreat and its program.
