Nosara, Costa Rica

A Space To Return To Yourself

The land, the food grown from it, the rhythm of each day, the treatments that work at the level of the nervous system and the cell — everything here is designed to work together so the body can do what it already knows how to do.

A space where we can come home to ourselves.

The Land and Location
Held by the land.
Held by the nature.

Tierra Encantada sits in the protected jungles of Guanacaste, fifteen minutes above Nosara — one of the world’s five Blue Zones, where the land has been doing the work of restoration for centuries. Rivers, mountains, and 2,500 trees across the property form the foundation everything else is built on.

The Food and Farm
Nourishment grown from the land itself.

Our on-site biodynamic farm grows vibrant, chemical-free produce in harmony with the Earth’s natural cycles, guided by lunar calendars and regenerative practices. What we don’t grow here, we source locally and organically — keeping the nourishment as close to the land as possible.

The Casitas
Spaces where you can rest and exhale.

Built with materials eco-conscious materials , our casitas are designed not just for luxury but for deep rest. For sleep that restores and mornings that begin with the sun and the breeze. Private, semi-private, and shared rooms create space to slow down and connect with the rhythm around you.

Vie Harmony Wellness Sanctuary
Intentionally designed for deep rest and rejuvenation.

Led by Anne, a naturopathic doctor of thirty years, Vie Harmony works from within — meeting the body at the level of the nervous system, the cells, and the lymphatic and digestive systems. Every treatment is shaped around what your body actually needs, designed to restore, regulate, and remember.

The Shala
The heart of movement, practice, and gathering.

The heart of Tierra Encantada — a space purpose-built for movement, ceremony, breathwork, and the deep work that retreats and immersions bring with them. Open to the surrounding land, it’s where stillness becomes practice and where the body meets the environment most directly.

Common Spaces
Designed around connection, spaciousness, and reflection.

Beyond the casitas and the Shala, Tierra Encantada is woven together by the spaces where guests gather, rest, and move at their own pace — the kitchen and fire pit, the tipi, the pool, the gym, and the trails. Each is part of the daily rhythm, designed to support  the process of returning to ourselves.

The Community
Rooted in Nosara.
Built with our neighbours.

Tierra Encantada is woven into the living ecosystem of Nosara, working in collection with local farmers, land keepers, schools, and wisdom keepers. The food on your plate, the materials in our spaces, and the people you’ll meet all reflect the deeper truth that this place is rooted to where it is.

Daily Rhythms
Living in rhythm with nature.

Days at Tierra Encantada follow nature’s movements. Slow mornings with first light, unhurried meals, evenings that close with the sunset. Living in alignment with these rhythms is one of the most invisible and powerful healing modalities: the radical act of moving with the pace your body was made for.

Host Your Retreat With Us

A space that matches the depth of the work you do.

Tierra Encantada was built for facilitators whose work deserves more than a venue. The land, the food, the daily rhythm, and the team all move in service of the depth you came to create. You arrive and the conditions are already there.

Meet Dan and Anne
Guided by a single belief: that most of what people are searching for is already within them.

Tierra Encantada was built by Dan and Anne to create the conditions for that remembering. Not by adding more, but by creating an environment that allows the body to do what it already knows how to do.

This is their life’s work — and they are still here, every day, holding it.

The land isn’t a backdrop.
The food isn’t an amenity.
The rhythm isn’t accidental.

Everything here was created in service of one simple belief: that our natural state is one of balance, clarity, and aliveness. And that most of us have simply forgotten what that feels like.

Stories of those who have walked this path before you.

Our guests share how Tierra Encantada helped them release, reconnect, and rediscover themselves. These powerful reflections offer a glimpse into the transformation that unfolds when healing happens in harmony with nature.
