4 Days, Multiple Departures
Whether you're flying solo, with a partner, or a crew of friends, we've tailored the ultimate retreat experience just for you.
Step into paradise with our retreat and immerse yourself in a variety of retreats. Nestled in the heart of Costa Rica, we stand out as the sole Retreat Center offering dedicated mat space and daily sessions for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu & Muay Thai. Our on-site accommodations and delectable homemade meals complete the experience. With small group sessions and personalized attention, every aspect of our Dojo training is finely tuned. And with Playa Guiones, an incredible surfing beach, just a stone's throw away, our location is ideal for Surf Retreats. For yoga enthusiasts, we've teamed up with the renowned Bodhi Tree Yoga Institute, located just a stroll away, to deliver exceptional yoga sessions as part of our retreat packages. Plus, being situated in one of the world’s few Blue Zones, Nosara epitomizes the wellness lifestyle.
We cater to every budget, offering everything from rustic glamping cabins to a luxurious 6-bedroom hilltop Villa boasting stunning vistas, its own yoga deck, and an infinity pool. Our expansive grounds seamlessly blend with the surrounding jungle, offering guests a chance to connect with Nosara’s natural splendor. From exotic birds to playful howler monkeys, wildlife abounds, providing a truly immersive experience.
We take pride in our sustainable practices, growing much of our own produce using permaculture techniques. At our four-star restaurant, Acachete, indulge in organic culinary delights crafted from our homegrown ingredients. Need a quick pick-me-up? Swing by our juice & coffee bar for a refreshing smoothie or a rich cappuccino. Enhance your retreat with our in-house excursions, tours, and massages.
For over 7 years, our team has been the go-to destination for unforgettable retreats in Nosara. Owner-operated, we offer a personal touch and a family atmosphere, providing a taste of authentic Costa Rica often lost in larger resorts.

Here, you're not just training BJJ; you're reconnecting with yourself in a world that celebrates life's essence. Welcome to our retreat.
Yes we are!
Yes! Please notify us before your stay and talk to our chef, Warner, about any concerns. Our menu has Paleo, Keto, gluten-free and vegan options, and any meal can be adjusted to fit your other dietary preferences.
We are located just off the main road that leads into town. Both the beach and downtown Guiones are within walking distance, but we are happy to call you a tuk-tuk to get you to and from home base.
It is not essential, but you are more than welcome to bring one. Our glamping hut walls are triple screened to protect from critters while still ensuring airflow. They are not completely insect-proof, so if you feel most comfortable with a bug net, that’s most important!
We don’t think there’s ever a bad time as both seasons offer something truly special! Dry season is generally Dec-May and Wet Season is generally June-Nov. The rain will be at its heaviest in September.
We offer access to high-speed internet all across our grounds, but cell reception is weak in our corner tucked into the jungle. Luckily you don’t need to go far to reach better reception if needed! Most cell providers have WIFI calling too, which works great!
Light clothing, swimwear, and sunblock are all essential. During the rainy season, we recommend a waterproof bag and bug repellent, and for the sunny season a good hat.
We have motion-sensored security cameras positioned around the property in case of any concerns. Our “security guard” is named Rosco, he is an energetic and very friendly Doberman! We always have staff on-site and a front gate that can be securely locked. Yes, all rooms have a safe!
Absolutely and in fact this is very common. We have couples and friends come together often. You CAN mix and match BJJ, Muay Thai, Boxing & Yoga. Ex: If someone in your party wants to do the BJJ retreat, and another the Yoga retreat, just book the party leader’s retreat and add adults to the room. Then you can email us who wants to do what. There is no price difference for BJJ, Muay Thai & Yoga and you will have unlimited access to all. Other Ex: If someone in your party just wants the meal plan, and no activities, or someone wants to do the Surf Retreat, and another the BJJ/Muay Thai or Yoga, email us.
Of course! We even offer Kids BJJ and Kids Muay Thai! They can take surf lessons, too!
