Savor Costa Rica: Rain Forest Renewal
February 6th- 13th, 2027
Join us for a transformative 8-day, 7-night retreat at the luxurious Casa Fantastica, tucked into the vibrant jungle of Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica. This is a soul-nourishing escape designed to reconnect you with nature, your body, and your inner rhythm—while enjoying the comfort and beauty of a high-end private villa.
Perched above the Pacific Ocean and overlooking the lush canopy of Manuel Antonio National Park—named one of the world’s most beautiful parks—Casa Fantastica offers a breathtaking setting for one of Savor’s signature experiences. Here, nature becomes your backdrop: monkeys swing through the trees, macaws soar overhead, and the rhythm of the ocean anchors your days.
At the heart of this retreat is the Costa Rican philosophy of Pura Vida—a way of life that translates to “pure life,” but truly means living with presence, gratitude, simplicity, and joy. It’s a mindset that aligns deeply with yoga: slowing down, savoring each moment, and reconnecting to what matters most. Throughout the week, you’ll not just hear Pura Vida—you’ll feel it, live it, and carry it home with you.
Each day begins and ends with grounding yoga and meditation in our open-air yoga space, guided by beloved teachers Jen and Julie. Their approach meets you exactly where you are—whether you’re brand new to yoga or deep in your practice—while holding space for movement, breath, stillness, laughter, and even the occasional dance party.
In between practices, your days are yours to explore or simply be. Enjoy beautifully prepared meals by our private chef, relax by the villa’s stunning pool, walk to the beach with a fresh coconut in hand, or unwind with a Soma massage at a nearby spa. You’ll also experience curated adventures including guided excursions and a hands-on cacao workshop, all thoughtfully chosen to deepen your connection to this incredible place.
Whether you come solo or with a friend, this retreat is intentionally designed to feel both expansive and supportive—a space to slow down, reflect, and move with intention. With luxury shared and private accommodations, group airport transportation, daily yoga and meditation, and curated experiences, everything is taken care of so you can fully arrive.
This is more than a vacation—it’s an invitation to reset, reconnect, and return home renewed.
Pura Vida.
Spaces are limited, and early booking is highly encouraged.
