Ayahuasca Costa Rica

The grounds are pure magic—dense tropical foliage, the soothing sound of distant waterfalls, and an atmosphere that whispers calm into every corner.

The ceremonies here are nothing short of transformative. I experienced a deep, cathartic release during one session that brought buried memories and emotions to the surface. The facilitators guided us with unwavering compassion and a level of professionalism that made even the most intense moments feel safe. I remember one evening, under a brilliant sunset, feeling as if I was finally shedding a lifetime of pain and embracing a new, hopeful beginning.

Integration was equally thoughtful. Group circles allowed us to share our raw experiences and gain clarity, and I left with practical tools for carrying these insights into everyday life. This retreat provided a full spectrum of healing—from the powerful medicine to the supportive community—and it truly changed my life for the better.

Leaving the retreat, I felt lighter, more connected, and equipped to face life with a newfound sense of purpose. If you’re ready for a no-BS, transformative experience in a truly magical setting, Ayahuasca Costa Rica is where you need to be.

I decided to try Ayahuasca Costa Rica after hearing high praise from friends, hoping it would finally break the cycle of emotional stagnation I’d been trapped in. The natural beauty of the retreat is undeniable—a lush, green haven that promises to pull you away from the everyday grind. The medicine itself is potent, and during the ceremonies, I experienced flashes of clarity that gave me a glimpse of what true healing might look like.

However, my overall experience was uneven. While the ceremonies were deeply moving, I often felt that the follow-up integration support was insufficient. There were times when, after an intense session, I was left to process heavy emotions on my own without enough personalized guidance. Moreover, I found the communal atmosphere somewhat impersonal; in a space meant for deep connection, I sometimes felt like just another face in the crowd. The accommodations, though eco-friendly and in tune with the retreat’s ethos, were very basic and left me longing for a bit more comfort after long, draining days.

In short, if you’re willing to navigate some gaps in support for the sake of experiencing powerful medicine, you might gain valuable insights—but be prepared for a somewhat inconsistent journey that might leave you with mixed feelings.

I came to Ayahuasca Costa Rica seeking a serious reset after years of burnout, and I can honestly say the experience was both powerful and deeply healing. The setting here is an absolute dream—a tropical paradise where every sunset and gentle breeze invites you to let go and truly be present. The ceremonies were intense, stirring emotions I’d long suppressed, and I found myself reflecting on my life in ways I never thought possible.

That said, my experience wasn’t flawless. While the ceremonial work was stellar, I sometimes felt that the post-ceremony integration could have been more personalized. There were moments when group discussions felt a bit generic, and I craved more one-on-one guidance to help process the heavy emotions that surfaced. Additionally, a few of the logistical details—like the timing of some sessions and the limited variety in meals—left me wishing for a bit more refinement.

Nonetheless, the overall impact was profound. I left Ayahuasca Costa Rica with a clearer vision of my life and a renewed sense of purpose. If you’re open to deep, raw healing and can overlook a few organizational quirks, this retreat offers a transformative experience.

My stay at Ayahuasca Costa Rica was, overall, a deeply transformative experience that left me with lasting insights. The retreat’s natural setting is absolutely serene—lush, vibrant, and perfectly tuned to help you disconnect from the outside world and focus on inner healing.

The ceremonies provided some truly powerful moments. I had instances where I felt a genuine breakthrough, confronting long-held fears and emotional wounds that I’d been too afraid to face. The facilitators, though clearly experienced and caring, sometimes struggled with the balance between structure and spontaneity. I found that a few of the integration sessions were a bit rushed, leaving me with lingering questions about how to incorporate some of the revelations into my daily life.

Additionally, while the food was healthy and refreshing, I did find the variety somewhat lacking over the duration of the retreat. Despite these rough spots, I left with a profound sense of clarity and a renewed commitment to my healing journey. For those willing to work through a few minor inconveniences, this retreat offers a powerful path to transformation.
