The Return — a Costa Rica Wellness Retreat 2027

The Return is a week-long wellness retreat in Dominical, on Costa Rica's Pacific coast, hosted by Fountain Square Yoga. It blends yoga, Pilates, and fitness with adventure, music, and plenty of unhurried time. It suits people who want to move, explore, and rest in good company, and you don't need to be a certain kind of wellness person to belong here.

What to Expect

The week is built around movement, connection, and a little bit of wild. Mornings tend toward the sweaty side, with yoga, Pilates, and fitness. Afternoons are barefoot and open. Along the way the group chases waterfalls, rides horses through the jungle, dances to Latin music, and watches the sun go down over the Pacific. Evenings bring everyone together around the fire, with music and the kind of late-night conversation that comes easily once people have moved and laughed together.

This is not a retreat where every minute is scheduled. There is room built in to do absolutely nothing, to nap, to wander, or to sit with the place. You'll also get a taste of local culture and plenty of good food.

The Setting

The retreat takes place at Danyasa Eco Retreat & Boutique Hotel, on the main street of Playa Dominical in Puntarenas province. The setting puts jungle, waterfalls, and the Pacific coast within reach, which is why so much of the week happens outdoors.

Before You Go

The invitation is simple: come as you are. Nothing in the retreat asks for a particular level of experience or a particular kind of practice, only a willingness to take part, meet new people, and enjoy yourself. Pack for warm weather, movement, and barefoot afternoons, and leave room for a little adventure. You should leave feeling a little more like yourself.
