For five nights, we’ll call Le MaGil Boutique Hotel home — a small, intimate property surrounded by the tropical beauty of Tamarindo.

Our group will have exclusive use of six private cabinas, creating a relaxed setting where everyone can settle in, connect and feel at home.

Mornings begin with breakfast and yoga, while the rest of the day unfolds through a mix of curated experiences and free time.

Founder of The Yoga Garden · Yoga Teacher · Retreat Host

I'm the founder of The Yoga Garden, a space created from the belief that yoga is about so much more than movement.

For me, it is a practice of constant growth — cultivating connection, presence and a deeper relationship with ourselves and the world around us.

My teaching style is welcoming, energizing and intentional. I love connecting breath with movement and creating practices that challenge and inspire, while still leaving space for stillness and reflection. Whether we're flowing on the mat, practicing quiet moments of presence or sharing meaningful conversations, my intention is always to create an environment where you feel supported, inspired and at home.

Costa Rica has captured my heart for its incredible biodiversity, vibrant culture and gentle reminder to slow down and embrace the beauty of the present moment. Its lush landscapes create the perfect setting to reconnect with nature, restore balance and experience the joy of simple living.

Compassion for animals is another value especially close to my heart, which is why this retreat includes meaningful animal welfare experiences alongside our time together. I believe travel can be a powerful opportunity to give back, connect with local communities and deepen our appreciation for all living beings.

This retreat is an invitation to step away from the demands of everyday life, nourish your body and mind, and experience the magic of Costa Rica alongside a community of kind, curious and open-hearted people.

I can't wait to welcome you.

The Yoga Garden Getaway is a collaboration between The Yoga Garden and VAYA — bringing together a love of yoga, intentional travel and meaningful experiences.

The Yoga Garden brings the practice, community and connection. VAYA brings the travel curation and thoughtful details behind the journey.

Together, we've created a retreat designed to slow the pace, experience Costa Rica with intention and make space for connection, adventure and a little more presence.

The Yoga Garden Getaway was created around a simple idea: travel can be restorative without being passive.

Over five nights, we’ll settle into the rhythm of Costa Rica — beginning our days with movement and intention, then heading out to experience the landscape, food, wildlife and culture around us.

Some days will hold adventure. Others will leave space for stillness.

There will be opportunities to explore, to connect, to nourish yourself and to do absolutely nothing for a while.

Nothing is designed to feel rushed.

This is a retreat for people who want to experience Costa Rica deeply, while still having the space to breathe.

Yoga is woven naturally into the retreat rather than taking over the experience.

Each day offers an opportunity to move, breathe and reconnect through thoughtfully guided yoga practices designed to meet you where you are.

Whether you have an established practice or are simply looking for a different way to begin your mornings, there is no expectation to perform or keep up.

This retreat is about how you feel when you leave — not how much you accomplish while you’re here.
