The Retreat Costa Rica

Finca Rosa Blanca Coffee Plantation Resort is an arty boutique country inn located in the Central Valley of Costa Rica near San Jose, with stunning views of nearby volcanoes, cloud forests and coffee plantations. Each guest room is individual in style.

The Grano de Oro is a charming turn of the century mansion. The atrium terrace and corridors have sparkling fountains and lush tropical planting, and the rooftop deck offers soothing jacuzzis and is a great spot for catching a few rays.

El Silencio Lodge & Spa is an eco-lodge set amongst lush cloud forest just over an hour from San Jose in Bajos del Toro offering beautiful suites and villas, picture-perfect panoramas, and a whole host of pampering and nature-based activities.

Experience the vast biological diversity of Monteverde Cloud Forest from a different perspective. Arriving just before sunset, you will have the opportunity to see many rare and nocturnal wildlife species emerge out of the darkness.

Wake up and smell the coffee on a morning tour of Finca Rosa Blanca's coffee farm; the guides are knowledgeable and passionate to teach you all about the process from picking to the packet, whilst taking in beautiful mountain scenery.

Sky Tram, Trek and Walk is a guided experience of a cablecar above the canopy, walking along the hanging bridges of Monteverde and zip lining through the cloud forest canopy.

Explore the magnificent birding opportunities in the Santa Elena Cloud Forest Reserve. Lose yourself in the forest, surrounded by views of the Arenal Volcano and the Guanacaste lowlands.

The Pacuare River offers some of the finest white water in Latin America, winding through rugged canyons deep inside one of Costa Rica's impressive rainforests. As no roads lead to Pacuare Lodge, rafting in and out is the perfect way to arrive in style!
