Samasati Retreat And Rainforest

Everything about life at SAMASATI'S is beautiful! Waking up with the monkeys, early morning & evening yoga with Stephanie... from trips to the beach or a hiking to the hidden waterfall. A piece of heaven everyone should visit more than once.

Samasati is a place you have to get to - to believe that magic like this exists. It's hard to describe in words and pictures do no justice to the pristine experience of living in the jungle. The symphony of sounds, ever changing through out the day, awake something primal within, something forgotten during our "proper" schooling. Suddenly, a new feeling, a new understanding arises of what it means to be a human on this planet, and you are changed forever. This is the ultimate adventure vacation, where everything is brand new yet somehow remembered. There's real danger in that jungle, it requires complete presence and awareness. And then the experience of pure, never-before experienced joy arises, and you know for the first time what it means to be truly alive. The mystery is revealed. The stay at Samasati is rustic and authentic. You feel like an integral part of that mountain. The views will take your breath away from dawn till dusk. The food is gourmet and filled with nutrients and the love of the chefs preparing it - outstanding! The Yoga, Chi Gong morning practices will reveal the truth. The massages will revive you back into the passion and joy of life. This is a trip packed with adventures and there is no lack of things to do: from exploring the jungle, to loosing yourself in the warmth of the Carribean Sea, jumping into waterfalls, to visiting town and shopping, to indulging in local chocolate. Samasati is the perfect place to explore the pristine beauty of Costa Rican Eco-travel! It is The place for a retreat or an event like birthday, anniversary or wedding! I can't wait to return to this paradise! Don't wait- book now!

love this place so much I'm writing my review while I'm still in the midst of my trip. Samasati is gorgeous, secluded, magical and rejuvenating. The effort it takes to get here is worth it. The staff is so sweet and there is laughter everywhere. The food is delicious and home made with love. Animals greet you everywhere- hummingbirds, enormous luminescent butterflies, tiny red frogs, sloths just slothing, and many varieties of monkeys delighting you. What an amazing place

Special, magical, heavenly: Samasati is all of it. My heart is there. I hope as many people as possible can have the experience of been there.

Heaven on earth. Staff was phenomenal. Food was the best I've ever had !

Gorgeous setting, incredible staff, and delicious food!

This is really beautiful. Excited to see how adventure and creation unfold at Samasati. Thank you!

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.

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!

This fantastic place has a charm, a soul, and an amazing soulkeeper! The Charm is strategically placed authentic and very comfortable living spaces, surrounded by unbelievably beautiful jungle mountain nature! The Soul is the Caretaker, Scott, whose always smiling presence feels so very welcomed even at 5am! And of course, the Soulkeeper, Stephanie, the guru, the mentor, the inspirational friend you would want to keep for life! Thank you Samaseti!

Its beautiful, cabins are gorgeous, food is amazing, lots of restaurants around, vegan friendly, stunning jungle around, beach easy enough to get to...local buses readily available, waterfalls around, the staff are friendly...loved our experience there!!

I can’t say enough wonder things about this place and the staff. Experience of a lifetime. Cleansed body and soul in the gorgeous rainforest of Costa Rica. Feeling blessed, loved and grateful ?? This place is truly magical

Omg aan amazing location in the Costa Rican rainforest. You really get to immerse yourself in nature when you live in a cabin type environment. You can hear the monkeys every morning, and you can see sloths pretty regularly. There are soo many amazing opportunities here. Even the beach is not too far away. I mean you have to take a taxi but its not that bad. AND if you want a really good walk try walking up the hill from the entrance... its hot and challenging!!

Between the hospitality, the view, the incredibly fresh food, the ambience of the jungle and all its inhabitants and the authenticity and beauty of Costa Rica, this is an experience I will never forget!

Amazing place to get away from everything. Amazing food. Great hiking. Yoga. Hammocks everywhere. Sloths, monkeys, tucans everywhere! Very nice staff. Super accomodating! They treat everyone like family. Free shuttle into town/beach everyday.
