Spa draws on ancient Chorotega healing practices to create deeply restorative rituals. Guests are enveloped by the scent of fresh Juanilama and turmeric, their vibrant earthy notes filling the air as they partake in hands-on workshops exploring the region’s botanical heritage. As herbal infusions steep and essential oils are blended, a connection to the land takes root, offering a tactile and spiritual experience rooted in tradition.

By moonlight, the spa's most ethereal offering unfolds. Beneath a canopy of stars, the Ancestral Moon Circle Rituals channel the energy of the lunar cycle through fire ceremonies and crystal healing. The warmth of flickering flames and the cool, grounding touch of white quartz create a profound sense of harmony, easing emotional burdens and fostering renewal. Meanwhile, the nearby beachfront yoga deck beckons with the rhythmic crash of waves, where morning meditations are accompanied by the soft rustle of tropical foliage swaying in the sea breeze.

A short flight away, El Mangroove reveals a different yet equally enchanting perspective on wellness. The Bearth Spa greets guests with the intoxicating aroma of raw cacao, its rich, velvety scent a prelude to a ceremonial journey of emotional release and self-discovery. As the cacao ceremony unfolds, a sense of warmth and openness spreads, a perfect complement to the natural beauty of the mangrove-lined shores surrounding the resort.

For those seeking a meditative escape, sound healing therapy transports participants to another realm. The gentle hum of Tibetan singing bowls and the soft chime of bells create a soundscape that seems to resonate through the body, balancing energy and quieting the mind. Each vibration lingers in the air, echoing the timeless wisdom of this ancient practice.

 

 

Set within the Nicoya Peninsula’s storied Blue Zone, both resorts extend an invitation to embrace life at a more deliberate pace. Punta Islita’s dramatic hilltop infinity pools and El Mangroove’s serene beachfront terraces offer tranquil respites for guests to soak in the region’s abundant natural beauty. The Nicoya Peninsula’s golden sunsets, vibrant bird calls, and ocean breezes provide a backdrop to moments of pure relaxation, whether lounging by the pool, enjoying a sustainable meal, or exploring the region's unspoiled terrain.
