For the woman who’s ready to slow down, reset,
and come back to herself. This is your exhale.
This isn’t just another girls trip.
This is a guided reset for women who are tired of holding everything alone.
You’ll be led…
into slow mornings and salt air,
into movement that brings you back into your body,
into connection that feels real.
For a few days, you don’t have to hold it all.
You get to be held.
Every detail is intentional from how you move, to how you rest, and how the days unfold.
This is your invitation to reset, reconnect, and come back to yourself.
Not a DIY trip.
A fully held, immersive experience.
Welcome to Salt + Soul Costa Rica
Days that begin barefoot, just steps from the beach. Salt air, sun on your skin, and space to finally breathe deeper.
Movement that softens your body and brings you back to life.
Afternoons to rest, explore, or wander down to the water.
Evenings that unfold slowly with connection, laughter, and conversations that stay with you.
This is where adventure meets sisterhood.
Where you get to move, exhale, and remember what it feels like to be fully alive. Our home base is a private jungle retreat just minutes from the ocean, with open-air spaces, nature all around, and room to slow down truly.
You arrive carrying everything.
You leave lighter, clearer, and more like yourself.
Spring 2027 • Costa Rica
What Awaits You:
Daily Yoga + Nervous System Grounding
Move your body in a way that actually feels good.
Open-air yoga, breath, and grounding practices designed to help you soften, release tension, and come back to yourself.
Nourishing Meals, Thoughtfully Prepared
Meals are a core part of this experience.
You’ll be supported with three chef-prepared meals each day + a light morning start, all made fresh with locally sourced, mostly organic ingredients. Every meal is designed to nourish your body and support how you want to feel grounded, energized, and taken care of.
Our private chef accommodates a variety of dietary needs, including vegetarian, pescatarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, and allergies — so you can fully relax and enjoy.
Meals aren’t rushed here.
They’re shared, slow, and deeply connecting.Poolside dinners, laughter, meaningful conversations and this is where some of the most beautiful moments happen.
Dinner Out by the Ocean
One evening, we’ll head out together for a special dinner at a well-known beachside restaurant. Sunset, ocean views, shared plates, and that feeling of being fully present, this is one of those nights you’ll remember.
Mangrove Kayaking Experience
We’ll head out together to explore the mangroves by kayak — paddling through lush waterways, spotting wildlife, and experiencing a quieter, wilder side of Costa Rica.
Horseback Riding Along the Coast
Ride through jungle trails and along the beach at golden hour — a peaceful, grounding experience that feels both freeing and unforgettable.
Steps from the Ocean
Just a short walk and you’re at the beach.
Morning walks along the water.
Salt air, sun on your skin, and space to breathe.
Afternoons to swim, rest, or simply listen to the waves.You might try something new — like getting out on a board or just spend your days moving between the ocean and stillness. At night, fall asleep to the sound of the waves.
Sound Bath Evenings
As the day winds down, we gather for slower, grounding practices. Sound baths, stillness, and space for your body to integrate it all.
Seamless Arrival
From the moment you land, we’ll help guide you every step of the way, including coordinating transportation from the airport so everything feels simple and supported.
Enhance Your Experience
For those who want a little more, you’ll have the option to add:
🍽 Costa Rican Cooking Class
A hands-on experience learning to prepare traditional dishes with fresh, local ingredients.
🌿 Spa + Bodywork Treatments

MEET YOUR RETREAT HOST
Heather Nicole
Heather Nichole | Retreat Leader, Coach & Yoga Teacher
I guide women back to themselves — through movement, breath, adventure, and real connection. After years of leading retreats and supporting women through burnout and big life transitions, I know this transformation doesn’t happen when you push harder.
It happens when you finally feel safe enough to let go.
Salt and Soul Costa Rica isn’t just a trip.
It’s a reset for your nervous system.
A return to your body. A reminder of who you are when you’re supported, seen, and allowed to exhale.
I’ll hold the container so you don’t have to hold it all. You get to soften. Expand. Feel. And come back to yourself in a way that actually sticks.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in the retreat package?
Your all-inclusive retreat experience includes luxurious accommodations, daily yoga and somatic practices, nourishing breakfast, lunch, and dinner each day. As well as guided activities in Costa Rica connection and creativity workshops, and all ground transportation for planned excursions throughout the retreat.
Can I add extra experiences or spa services?
Yes — you’ll have the option to add things like:
• Spa treatments and massage
• Costa Rican cooking class
• Kayaking or horseback riding are included
Do I need to be experienced in yoga to attend?
Not at all! Our session will be a good fit for all levels, from complete beginners to experienced practitioners. We will offer modifications for every pose, ensuring everyone feels comfortable and supported on their mat.
What's the best way to get to the retreat?
You’ll fly into Liberia International Airport (LIR) in Costa Rica.
We’ll provide a group shuttle to and from the retreat at set times, so once you land, you’re taken care of.
Because the shuttle runs at specific times, we recommend arriving a day early and leaving the day after the retreat. This makes the travel experience feel much more relaxed and ensures you don’t feel rushed.
Full travel details and exact timing will be shared after booking.
Do I need to be an experienced hiker??
Our retreat includes guided hikes designed for all experience levels. The hikes are beginner-friendly and focus on connection, movement, and breathtaking views.
What if I'm coming alone?
Coming solo is actually perfect! About 70% of our attendees arrive on their own, specifically seeking to form new connections. We design our activities to foster natural bonding, and our community-style meals and sharing circles help solo travelers quickly feel part of our retreat family.
What kind of food is served?
All meals are prepared by a private chef using fresh, locally sourced ingredients.
You’ll enjoy 3 nourishing meals each day, plus a light breakfast to ease into your mornings.
Meals are shared together — one of the most loved parts of the experience.
We can accommodate dietary needs including vegetarian, gluten-free, and more.
What's the typical schedule like?
There’s a rhythm to each day — but plenty of space within it.
Mornings might start slow… coffee, ocean air, and movement to bring you back into your body.
From there, the day opens up — time for the beach, rest, or choosing a little adventure.
Whether that’s getting out on the water, exploring nature, or trying something new.
Afternoons are spacious — connection, workshops, or doing absolutely nothing.
Evenings are where everything softens — shared meals, real conversations, and practices like sound baths to help your body settle.
It’s structured enough to feel held,
and open enough to let you follow what you need — rest, movement, or adventure.
What should I pack?
Pack light, breathable layers for warm days and cooler desert evenings. Bring comfortable hiking clothes and shoes, swimwear for lounging by the water, and yoga attire for afternoon or sunset sessions. Don’t forget a light jacket, reusable water bottle, biodegradable sunscreen, and any personal items you need.
Is WiFi available?
WiFi is available throughout the retreat house for those who need to stay connected, though we still encourage taking breaks from screens whenever possible. Many guests choose to unplug during hikes and group activities to fully experience the beauty and calm of the desert.
What if I need to cancel?
We highly recommend buying travel insurance. This will protect your investment if you need to cancel your trip last minute due to injury, illness or an unexpected event. You can also add "Cancel for any reason" to your travel insurance plan as well for a slightly additional cost. We recommend IMG Global for Travel Insurance. Due to the nature of the retreat and the costs incurred, we are not able to offer refunds directly.
How do I maintain connections after the retreat ends?
We create a private online community and a 1 month community space for each retreat group, where you can stay connected long after returning home. Many past participants have organized reunions, visited each other across the globe, and even returned to future retreats together. The bonds formed at our retreats truly become part of your extended family.
What’s the age range of women who usually join?
Most of our retreats and circles draw women in midlife — typically ages 40 to 70. We’ve also had women in their 30s and women well into their 70s. The common thread isn’t age — it’s the desire for peace, connection, and community. Many women come solo, and leave with new friendships that last well beyond our time together.
