Consmania CR

A hangar reborn for retreat

Costa Rica paid

An old airport hangar makes an unlikely centerpiece for Consmania CR: the former aviation space now serves as a ceremonial hall, while Haven brings together a movement studio, gathering rooms and a covered terrace. The venue is built for variety rather than a single house curriculum. Visiting leaders shape programs that may range from yoga and wellness retreats to business gatherings and plant medicine work, with on-site and virtual staff helping manage the practical details. Days can also include a dip in the pool, time in the sauna or spa, and meals prepared by a Costa Rican chef. The menu is vegetarian-focused, with vegan, pescetarian, organic, gluten-free and dairy-free options listed. This flexibility makes it especially important to choose a specific retreat before deciding what the experience will involve. Ask its organizer about the schedule, included services and any preparation needed before booking.

A typical day

Daily structure varies by retreat and its visiting leader. A yoga program, business gathering or plant medicine retreat may each use the venue differently, so ask the organizer for the session schedule, meal times and any periods set aside for rest.

Accommodation

Rooms have air conditioning and free Wi-Fi is listed among the amenities. The style and configuration of rooms, along with occupancy options, should be confirmed with the organizer of your chosen retreat.

What to bring

Pack light, breathable clothing and comfortable layers for movement or group sessions. The annual average temperature is 25.9°C; rain is more common in June, July and October, so a light rain layer is useful.
