Easily on-par with any high end resort (think Four Seasons, Aman) in terms of property and amenities. This boutique experience edges above the afforementioned with its unparalleled service and exceptional attention to detail. As a neurosurgeon I appreciate those with a true passion for their craft- Jonathan curated a bar program that consistently delivered some of the best cocktails I've experienced in Latin America!

The nickname for The Retreat Costa Rica is 'heaven on earth' and it is no exaggeration--a gorgeous setting in the mountains with pristine rooms with views to appreciate the sunset. The chef & team prepared creative cuisine using many ingredients from their own gardens focused on well being and vitality. We took a mocktail course from Jonathan and had drinks unlike anything we had ever tasted. The bonus was the drinks were good for our health too. The spa was remarkable! For the first time I experienced an Ayurvedic Abhyanga massage with Amal Michael. This was the most memorable and impactful body treatment of my life!! Truly he is a gifted practitioner. My husband commented that my face looked different as the worry lines disappeared! We appreciate the entire staff taking such amazing care of us. We are already planning a return visit to our new favorite wellness spa & resort!

The food was delicious and healthy; gourmet vegan (although a protein is always offered if desired). The staff went above and beyond to help make our stay wonderful! The room was tastefully appointed and extremely comfortable. The hotel and grounds are very well maintained, lush and beautiful. The only caveat is that they are expanding the hotel so the construction noise is quite unsettling during the day. This was disappointing given that this was meant to be a serene wellness escape! Apparently the construction will be finished by May 2025.

Wow. My second time at The Retreat and somehow even more magical this time around. The service and property are outstanding-Being here alone for 1 week I felt taken care of in every way. Staff is so friendly, accommodating, and always available to help or answer questions. Sergio has done an incredible job with the food offerings. My friends will typically call me a picky eater but at The Retreat I love everything I'm served & finish every plate! While being there I explored Ayurveda, starting with a consultation with Dr. Shaveta followed by daily Abhyanga sessions with Amal. In fact, I extended my trip by 3 days to get more! Amal is such a gifted healer and my treatments with him were truly life changing. I left with a better understanding of my body and tools I can use to find balance once returning home. Thank you to everyone who made my stay perfect!! I cannot wait to go back. Feels like home

Potentially lovely but now past its best
We were really excited about this stay having read all of the reviews but ended up disappointed. We received a room upgrade which we were grateful for but the room was very tired, particularly the bathroom area which had a handful of areas of damage. The room was also dirty, which we pointed out with photos to staff and they kind of asked us why we had looked for dirt (which we found when we moved a unit to plug a charger in) and there were multiple hairs in the room. They did do a “detail clean” but we keep our own house cleaner. Additionally we were woken by grounds keepers making loud banging noises every morning at 6am. Additionally they pride themselves on their food which we found to be average and $57 per person for dinner which we thought was expensive for the level of the food. On the positive side the communal areas were very nice and we had excellent massages.
