DITSOKTA RETREATS

Reconnect with self and nature

Costa Rica Piedra Blanca paid

Life at DITSOKTA RETREATS is shaped by a close relationship with the natural world and a program centered on spirituality, personal healing and ancestral wisdom. Gatherings invite guests to slow down, reconnect with themselves and others, and spend time in Costa Rica’s lush surroundings. The yoga studio and pool make room for movement and unstructured downtime, while three daily meals bring a mindful focus to the table. Organic vegetarian food is the usual emphasis, with other dietary options, including meat, gluten-free and dairy-free meals, depending on the retreat and advance arrangements. This is a paid retreat center rather than a one-size-fits-all package: accommodation, activities and practical details vary by event. The center is about an hour from Juan Santamaría International Airport by road, with the final turnoff only a short drive from the grounds. Check the specific retreat details before booking to understand its schedule and inclusions.
