Set on the stunning grounds of SCP Corcovado Wilderness Lodge, this five-night retreat promises an immersive and soul-satisfying experience. The lodge sits on Costa Rica’s Osa Peninsula, one of the most biologically diverse places on earth, home to 2.5% of the world’s biodiversity. Guests can explore Corcovado National Park, enjoy exciting activities, and experience first-class service in a truly remote setting. The hotel spans 170 acres of private reserve, surrounded by shoreline and rainforest, and is only accessible by boat.
Local Insight: SCP Corcovado Wilderness Lodge’s retreat guests will be the first to experience its refreshed, luxurious accommodations.
Adventure
The adventure begins at La Hacienda, the lodge’s private dock and reception center, in the sleepy town of Sierpe. Here, guests will meet the captain and embark on a 90-minute boat ride through the largest mangrove wetlands system on Central America’s Pacific coast. Be prepared to spot everything from monkeys and crocodiles to all kinds of birds.
“During the retreat itself, guests will be able to really dive into the beauty of nature and the biodiversity of Corcovado,” Sealy says.
This retreat offers a chance to ground, regenerate, and reconnect with Mother Earth in a truly meaningful way.
The five full days (and six nights) will focus deeply on Elemental Reconnection. “Each day is dedicated to a different element,” Sealy explains. “The first day is dedicated to the element of earth so that guests can get grounded.” The second day harnesses the element of water, washing away impurities and inviting renewal. On the third day, fire takes center stage, transforming energy and guiding you to embody change. Finally, the element of air allows attendees to envision new perspectives. Each day features activities like tree climbing, scuba diving, gardening, and bird watching, all designed to align with each element.
Local Insight: A leader in alternative energy, waste management and recycling, SCP Corcovado Wilderness Lodge is certified in two sustainable tourism platforms and holds the maximum rating in Costa Rica’s program.
