Cascadas Farallas Waterfall Villas

Ex-Corporate CEO, Fateh Kaur Bolivar is a top vegan and raw foods chef and a certified Kundalini yoga teacher. She has had a passion for cooking since her childhood. She has spent five years perfecting her local Costa Rican meals after a lifetime of international experiences in the kitchen. Having traveled the tropical world and being influenced by the Balinese architecture, she decided that people must live in harmony with nature, which became the theme for the Waterfall Villas and the retreats they operate. She seeks to be in balance with nature and the people of Costa Rica.

My experience at Cascadas Farallas was delightful, full of peace, and exceeded my expectations ....The whole environment was like a sanctuary in a jungle cocoon.." "It is quite warm and slightly humid but very comfortable. In the Bali style villa you are inside and outside at the same time ..it is designed so you are protected from the outside but since there are lots of windows and light you feel part of the outside ." "My daughter and I took part of the kundalini yoga daily that was led by the owner and I still feel the wellness one week later ....!!" "Fateh, the owner is warm towards all her staff and has created the food menus and assists in the serving. She is gracious to her guests yet not intrusive.." "The food is amazing! delicious, and beautifully presented .There is Lots of variety from day to day but pretty much a set menu .. that is very healthy" "A few things to remember :" "3 1/2 hour trip from the airport costs about $200 u.s." "Internet available at the beach for the price of a juice or coffee .." "Bus ride to the beach $1 and takes about 20 minutes" "Bus goes 3 or 4 times a day .." "Would definitely love to go again ..."
