About the venue:
Costa Rican eco-lodge and sanctuary dedicated to environmental stewardship and sustainable tourism. Nestled in the valley of San Juan de Dios near Platanillo, the property spans 28 acres of lush primary and secondary rainforest. It is centered around a majestic, private 58-meter waterfall that serves as the heart of the guest experience. The venue operates with a "nature-first" philosophy, featuring low-impact infrastructure, permaculture-guided gardens, and a commitment to preserving local wildlife corridors. It provides a peaceful, introspective container for international retreats, workshops, digital nomads, and nature lovers looking to reconnect with themselves and the environment.
Surrounding Area
Our property offers an immersive nature experience centered around a breathtaking, private 58-meter (approx. 200-foot) waterfall. While you will feel completely secluded in our tranquil jungle sanctuary, you are still conveniently located just a 20-minute drive from the vibrant coastal town of Dominical, famous for its surf culture, beach lifestyle, and local amenities. The area is a haven for wildlife enthusiasts, with regular sightings of toucans, monkeys, and exotic birds, providing the perfect balance between remote serenity and accessibility to the Pacific coast.

Our land is a living ecosystem a true haven for nature enthusiasts. You’ll be surrounded by an abundance of fruit trees, including cacao, mango, banana, avocado, papaya, citrus, and starfruit, which provide fresh harvests throughout the year.
