  • Much Much More

    Choose from all the above and more with our variety of vacation packages suited for everyone from the devoted yogi to the tropical adventurer to the person who just wants a little rest and relaxation. Our guest packages were designed with you in mind. We intend to make your escape as easy as possible so you can be completely relaxed about your getaway before you walk through our front gate.

We invite you to leave it all behind and just focus on yourself. Create your own journey at our tropical beachfront paradise.

If you’re tired of city life, if you’re burned out by your job, if you just need a getaway with your closest friends (or your significant other), then a yoga wellness vacation package is an entirely different way to take an escape. At Blue Osa you’ll still get everything that you would at a spa resort: massage, delicious food, plenty of time on the beach. But you’ll get all of that in a uniquely Blue Osa way.

You’ll wake to the sound of birds and jungle animals in the distance. You’ll hear the waves lapping the shore. You’ll be treated to meals that are farm-to-table and eco-friendly, the better to bring to a place of peace and tranquility as part of our Total Body + Mind Detox Retreat. Yoga will help you center your mind and body, the food will nourish your soul, and the juice will drive away the toxins, the meditation will cleanse the mind, and you’ll realize what it’s like to be truly in nature, at one with the lush and beautiful Costa Rican atmosphere.

Take hikes to waterfalls, get detoxifying body scrubs, deep tissue massages, and the best that Costa Rica has to offer. This is a spa vacation that is unlike any other, and that is by design. We saw what was available, and the manic tourism of it all didn’t appeal to us–not when we had the beauty of the natural landscape and ocean to entrance us. We’re a different kind of yoga spa retreat, because you need a different kind of yoga spa retreat.

Our guest packages were designed with you in mind. We intend to make your escape as easy as possible so you can be completely relaxed about your getaway before you walk through our front gate.
