Melody in Paradise: A Private Costa Rica Birthday Retreat

Celebrate Melody’s 60th surrounded by her favorite people in one of the most beautiful and biodiverse places in the world. This private retreat blends wellness, adventure, and celebration in a way that feels personal, flexible, and unforgettable.

Imagine Yourself Here

Wake up in Costa Rica to sunlight filtering through the jungle canopy, the sound of tropical birds, and the distant call of howler monkeys. Take a short walk to the beach for a sunrise swim in the warm Caribbean Sea, or sway in your hammock before joining a rejuvenating morning yoga session in the open-air shala.

Enjoy fresh, healthy meals prepared by our chef, relax by the pool, and soak in this once-in-a-lifetime chance to celebrate Melody and her circle of friends in paradise.

The small, laid-back town of Cahuita is just a short walk away for shopping, dining, and live local music.
