Retreat FAQs
The practical stuff, answered.
Meals, transportation, what to pack and what happens if plans change. Everything here reflects the Nosara, Costa Rica retreat, January 24 to 28, 2027.
What is on the table, and what is up to you.
Meals
- Is breakfast included?
- Yes. Breakfast is included each day of the retreat, plus a welcome drink when you arrive.
- What about lunch and dinner?

- Tell us in your registration form. There is a dietary field when you book, and Hayden will confirm what is possible before the trip.
Getting there, and getting around.
Transportation
- Which airport should I fly into?
- Liberia, Costa Rica. Flights are on your own, so book what works for your schedule and budget.
- Is airport transportation included?
- Yes. The shared shuttle from Liberia is included in the retreat price. Your flights are on your own. Check with Hayden before buying your flights so she can arrange the shuttle around your arrival time.
- How do we get around during the retreat?
- The group excursion day includes private drivers. For anything else, ask Hayden about local options before you book.
- Do I need a passport?
- Yes. Please make sure you have a valid US passport that does not expire for at least six months after we return on January 28, 2027.
Keep it light. The important things are waiting for you.
What to pack
- Do I need to bring surf gear?
- No. Your three surf sessions include a board and a rash guard. You have permission to be a beginner.
- What should I bring?
- Swimwear, sunscreen, comfortable clothes for yoga and warm evenings, and shoes you can walk in. Hayden will share a fuller packing note with the group closer to the trip.

Life happens. Here is how to handle it.
If you need to cancel
- What happens if I need to cancel?
- Please ask Hayden for the cancellation, refund and transfer terms before paying your deposit. These terms are confirmed directly with each guest rather than published here.
- Is the deposit a recurring charge?
- No. The $1,000 deposit is a one-time charge. Your remaining $1,600 can be paid in installments, with full payment due three weeks before we leave, January 3, 2027. Hayden will confirm the exact payment details. There are no automatic recurring charges.
- Can I transfer my spot to a friend?
- Possibly. Talk to Hayden before making any changes so the registration and participation agreement stay accurate.
