Incredible! We stayed 4 days while we hiked and explored the area. Resort was beautiful. We stayed in the river cabin, fell asleep to the sounds of the river, had coffee on the deck each morning, etc. The owners may be the nicest and most helpful people ever. It's called a Yoga Retreat Center and we are not yoga people... More

This was such an incredible trip...waking up in the mountains with the sound of the river every morning was such a revitalizing way to reset and start the new year. Great local yoga teachers, wonderful neighbours, and extremely friendly hosts. Very peaceful. This is a gem.

We were looking for a place to spend the night before hiking up Cerro Chirripo and stumbled on Rio Chirripo Retreat. The hosts were extremely accommodating, helping us with a smooth visit to the area. We ended up sharing yoga classes and dinner with a group of yogis from Canada and felt as though we had stumbled on a peaceful... More

I just stayed at Rio Chirripo Retreat for 7 days, with my husband, two sons (2 and 4), and their grandmother (80). And we all loved it! The climate was perfect. Hardly any mosquitoes. Beautiful view. A lot of privacy. The owners are lovely and extremely helpful. The food was very healthy and tasteful. And we could use their kitchen... More

My husband, myself and another couple stayed at Rio Chirripo Retreat for several days in August. It was such a wonderful, relaxing experience. Orianna was the perfect "hostess" and ensured our visit was relaxing and comfortable. Ori arranged a yoga lesson for me and the instructor was perfect for my needs. She secured a masseuse for one in our party... More

We were looking for a grand finale to our month long Costa Rican adventure and found the perfect mix of high adventure and relaxation at Rio Chirripo. It's an easy bus ride from San Jose to San Isidro and we were met there by a wonderful driver arranged by Rio Chirripo. We enjoyed the rugged climb up to the resort... More

We participated in an incredible yoga retreat with Leah MacLaughlin from Atenas. We are blessed to call Costa Rica and Atenas our adopted home. Frank and Ori's beautiful lodge, rooms, yoga center, gardens, pool, jacuzzi make this truly one of my favorite spots in all of Costa Rica. There are hiking trails, gorgeous surroundings including the pristine river. Frank and... More

I travel overseas every year and don't like to repeat vacations but I will return next year. It was well worth the drive to get there and back from San Jose. I used the cab driver Frank and Oriana recommended and I will use him again. The food was beautiful, healthy and delicious. I chose to do yoga everyday. If... More

We stumbled into this little slice of nirvana while we were tooling around the area on a holiday from our home in the southern Caribbean. We intended just one night, but stayed two, and will definitely return for a longer visit next time. From the very minute you enter the property you are greeted with beautiful naturalized garden areas, nurtured... More
