Surf + Yoga Retreat · January 28–February 1, 2027
Nosara
Costa Rica
Four nights where every meal is cooked, every lesson is booked, and nobody needs you. Bring a bathing suit. We handle the rest.
3 days · 4 nights
Women only · total beginners welcome
A small circle of kindred spirits
Permission granted. Officially.
You’ve spent years being brave for everyone else.
Three days and four nights in Nosara, Costa Rica, with a small circle of women who also needed this. Mornings start quiet: meditation, coffee, journal. Then yoga. Then a surf lesson where trying matters more than getting it right. Afternoons are empty on purpose. Dinner runs long, and no one checks their phone.
Never surfed? Good. Guiones is one of the friendliest waves on earth — long, slow, sandy bottom, warm water. You don’t have to be good at it for it to be good for you.
You’ll fly home with salt in your hair and proof you can still do new things.
What’s included
Everything handled. Seriously, everything.
You pick a room and a flight. From the moment you land, the room is ready, the food is made, the board is waxed, and the plan is on the wall. Your only job is showing up.

4 nights in a boutique hideaway — your own bed, made by someone else every day

Surf

When is the retreat?
January 28 – February 1, 2027: three days and four nights in Nosara, Costa Rica.
What does the schedule look like?
Day 1: you arrive in Nosara and get settled (fly into Liberia, LIR — the hotel can arrange your transfer, or you can book your own shuttle), then we kick things off with a welcome dinner. Every full day starts the same gentle way: guided morning meditation and journaling, then yoga, then your daily surf lesson, and long afternoons with nothing planned. Sometime during your stay there's one guided outing — waterfall, boat, horseback — plus optional excursions if you're hungry for more. On the last morning: one last sunrise, breakfast, and your ride back to the airport.
I've never surfed. Is that okay?
Yes. Playa Guiones has long, slow waves over a sandy bottom, which makes it one of the best places in the world to learn. Every daily surf lesson works for every level, and boards and gear are included.
Who is this retreat for?
Women only, all ages, every fitness level. Most guests come alone; a few bring a sister or a friend. If you've been saying "next year" for a while, you're who we built this for.
What's included?
Four nights in a boutique stay, daily surf lessons, daily morning meditation and journaling, daily yoga and mobility, and one guided outing during your stay (optional excursions available).
What isn't included?
Flights to Liberia, airport transfers (the hotel can arrange one for you, or you can book your own shuttle or rental), travel insurance, and any extras you choose to add.
How much does it cost?
$2,495 per person in a shared room, or $3,225 per person in a private room.
How do payments work?
You hold your spot with a $999 deposit. Then you can pay the rest in one go, or in three installments due November 1, December 1, and January 1.
What do I fill out to sign up?
One short form with your contact details, emergency contact, surf experience, and dietary needs, plus the participant agreement. You fill it out right before paying your deposit.
