About the Resort

Nestled among the lush vegetation of the rainforest, The Retreat Costa Rica is perched on a crystal quartz mountain overlooking the Pacific Ocean. It’s a world-class, nature-inspired, holistic healing oasis that will nourish and renew your mind, body, and soul.


This luxurious resort is the dream-come-true of celebrity chef, best-selling author, and health and wellness life coach, Diana Stobo. Diana dreamed of creating a transformational wellness center, a resort and spa where guests experience a harmony of nature, nutrition, and wellness.

The Retreat Costa Rica is just 30 minutes from San Jose International Airport and features:

  • Unique, elegant rooms
  • Healing center and spa
  • Two saltwater pools
  • Yoga house (overlooking the Pacific Valley!)
  • Meditation deck
  • Organic gardens and coffee plantation
  • River swings
  • Jungle and river paths

Meals are plant-based, but local, sustainably raised fish, fowl, beef, and lamb are also served at dinner. Vegan and vegetarian options are available at any meal. All foods are grain-free, dairy-free (occasional goat yogurt and cheese) and use no refined sweeteners.

Give yourself the gift of peace and tranquility. You are so worth it!


Includes accommodations, all meals, and twice-a-day yoga.

See for yourself.

AND, new for 2025:   

A transformative new chapter in luxury wellness has arrived.

Santosha is the inspired expansion of The Retreat Costa Rica. An elevated wellness sanctuary designed to awaken the senses, deepen your healing journey, and enhance your retreat experience.

Located just below the main house, this lush hillside space features a second infinity pool, a state-of- the-art fitness center, an expansive yoga shala, and three new culinary destinations, including a rooftop fine dining restaurant.

This new space unlocks even more opportunities for holistic well-being: from daily wellness rituals, yoga and movement classes, and sound healing to community gatherings, spa therapies, and places to lounge, connect, and restore.

As a guest of The Retreat, you now enjoy full access to both worlds—the serene grounding of our original retreat and the dynamic vitality of Santosha.

This is wellness redefined in Costa Rica.

It’s not just a place, it’s a feeling. And it’s all yours to explore.

About your organizer

MY
Moonbird Yoga
Moonbird is more than a yoga studio – it’s a home. Home to a community of caring, supportive yoga teachers and students. And when we say home, we mean it. In 2020, we moved from rented space in an office complex to a 100+ year old house in downtown O’Fallon, IL. Our community came together to lovingly transform this old house into a warm, inviting yoga home. We hope Moonbird will become your home, too! Come for a workout – for your body, for your mind. Stay for a shift in mindset – a new self-awareness, a sense of belonging.
