A natural playground. Retreat to nature, the jungle, and the beach at Costa Dulce Ecolodge and Yoga Retreat Center. Spread across a jungle hill rising up from the from the beach, it is the perfect place to connect to yourself and your surroundings.

Costa Dulce has grown organically, integrating with the surrounding environment and has become one of the premier wellness centers in Central America. They are committed to a grass-roots approach to tourism and a more sustainable future through improving the social, economic and environmental well being of the surrounding communities.

Costa Dulce is nestled in its own valley right on the beach. It’s private enough to completely relax and get away from it all, no distractions, yet close enough to San Juan del Sur that you can experience a busy tourist destination when you want. Located on Playa Escameca, their ecolodge is ideal for all travelers looking to enjoy good company in a relaxed, safe, and healthy environment. Costa Dulce has several individual Bungalows, two yoga shalas, a lounge/honour bar, sea turtle hatchery, spa, surf school, food garden, and a restaurant called the Dulce Cocina.

This will be my 4th trip (retreat) at Costa Dulce, and it is truly one of my favorite places.  The feeling there is really so special, and I am so excited to share this space with those I love!  

I truly believe in the importance of taking time out of normal routines and environments, to be in a new space, supported by nature, nourishing food, yoga practice, and loving community, with plenty of time for solitude and reflection.   It’s in this space, I believe, that we are able to become more in tune with our truest selves, and we can receive the creative inspiration to live our lives in more alignment with our deepest purpose.

Whether we know each other well, or this will be our first time sharing space, please know that I will do my best to support you in your journey of self love and exploration.  Please reach out with any questions, and I so look forward to playing in magical Nicaragua with you!
