Are we right for each other? Over 85% of our guests visit us because they feel lost and seek purpose, are dealing with a recent major life change or simply want a tranquil get away. If this is you, then our retreats grounded in ancient healing arts should help you rejuvenate and reset. If you primarily want to party and go sightseeing, then we are not the right venue for you.
Those who visit us solely for such reasons simply do not have a fulfilling experience. We only work with leaders who have a proven record of delighting their guests. If you are an established leader with a record of helping your clients, we would love to connect with you. We also are open to mentoring new leaders who share our mission to heal.

I will warn you, the paint on the sign is faded and finding this idyll, even with GPS, can be a challenge. Arrive during daylight!
All the staff here are so welcoming and accommodating. The environment is relaxing and beautiful with more wildlife surrounding us than I saw on my booked tour through a place in town. Other guests are easy to mingle with as they are generally as kind and peaceful as the staff. The memory of lying in a hammock enjoying the elevated view of the cove was something I draw on often now that I am back home. Another tip-pack binoculars!

I had such an amazing experience at Samasati. Breathtaking surroundings with an amazing staff. there was always someone around to answer any questions or concerns that I had. Everyone on staff was always checking in to see how our stay was going. Stephanie really took the time to make sure we hit all the best spots in puerto viego and that we got the most out of our stay. I would highly recommend Samasati and definitely plan to visit again. Oh, and the food was amazing!

I loved the massage/yoga staff, the food, the view, and the accommodations. We missed a flight connection and had to pay for our transportation the following day which was quite stressful, but the transportation company was beyond helpful with this unfortunate situation. We planned to be there within the times Samasati required, but there was no flexibility with extra expense we incurred with this problem that was beyond our control.
It was a very long commute from airport to resort.

I and my retreat guests had an AMAZING time at Samasati!! Stephenie was beyond wonderful in supporting us to schedule our time both at the retreat doing yoga and nutrition classes, and also exploring the area with various adventures. Becca led gentle yoga classes that worked perfectly for the beginners as well as those who had been doing yoga for quite a while. Having her available for massages, fairy cards, and hilarious conversations over dinner was a highlight for all of us. The food was incredibly delicious and the chefs and Stephanie made sure that all of our meals were made vegan, since that

It seems like people on the actual retreat had a good time, but do NOT book only the bed and breakfast. We felt totally unwelcome and ignored. like we weren't part of their fancy exclusive club. Very uncomfortable. We stayed 2 nights. They lost power both nights. maybe they should invest in a generator. See my full review for details on Google.

Place is great. Very quiet and peaceful. They offer amazing yoga sessions twice a day, can’t beat this yoga experience accompanied by all kinds of birds singing around. Food is awesome, I’m not vegetarian but I really enjoyed what they were offering. Internet is ok, there is a hot spot that works most of the time but not always. Staff is amazing. Everybody is super friendly and helpful. Also I talked to a girl I met she was here for 10 days and loved it.

I was pleasantly surprised by all of the lovely upgrades and renovations made with the new management!!
I stayed two years ago and loved the experience although I noticed somethings and staff needed improvement. Since then, I would read the reviews and dream about going back. Then when I read the owner's caring reply to a reviewer who complained, saying that the resort has had an overhaul since there is new management.....I quickly booked a 7 day solo stay!
Soooo nice to go back! The scenery, the rainforest, the yoga, the massages and the hikes were all so wonderful like I remembered them but

I came to Costa Rica to experience the nature and have a relaxed vacation.
At Samasati the staff was super helpful, friendly, and welcoming (mainly Stephanie, Hanna, David, Venessa and Max) They even packed food for me if I went out of town and didn't make in back to Samasati in time for Lunch/Dinner. David took me on hikes and showed me cool spots in the jungle that was breathtakingly beautiful.
I feel the residence where I stayed itself (cottages and bungalows) could have been maintained better. Im a huge outdoorsy person and I have roughed it out many times in the wild, but but for the price

My stay at SamaSati was a life changing experience! It exceeded my wildest expectations of experiencing the rainforest up close and personal. All of the staff here are very accommodating, genuine, knowledgeable, experienced and kind. They all worked hard to make my stay everything I was looking for. The chef is world class and he made every meal unique and amazing. It's very peaceful and unlike anything I've experienced before. I hope to return one day!

I just attended a BEAUTIFUL wedding at Samasati, and I can't stop feeling the amazing energy from being at this lovely sanctuary in the jungle.
It's really unlike any hotel I've ever been to.
The grounds are built right into nature. You live seamlessly with the jungle - but in private bungalows with screens and a lovely porch with a hammock, that let's you watch wildlife in it's element, while having comfort and privacy. The view is amazing, since Samasati is built on a mountain overlooking the the valley below that leads to the ocean. Hiking in the jungle is also a crazy experience, with so

I had the luxury of attending a wedding at Samasati and the experience was beyond what I could of imagined. Let's start with the food, Funky the cook was amazing! everything was organic and fresh. The staff was very warm and ready to serve. My cabin was so beautiful with my own hammock to sit a enjoy the sounds of the jungle.
Stephanie took us hiking and showed us all of the wonders that nature has to offer. I mean really the bullet ants were no joke. We saw rare animals and it was wonderful. Usually I am terrified of bugs being a city girl but after getting educated I learned to blend with and
