“Word for 2013 - Balance -”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 20, 2013

Hey, Hey! What can I say? The Costa Rica Yoga Spa became a serendipitous mountain top sanctuary which provided me with one of the best experiences I’ve ever had throughout my years of traveling! While looking across the breakfast table, you find yourself over-looking the most majestic, tropical array of jungle foliage in the world! All the while you are being hypnotized by the Pacific Ocean off in the distance. In the morning you will often arise to a mountain top breeze. It is this breeze that carries the finely scented aroma of fresh Costa Rican coffee and the most delectable delights! You enjoy breakfast after being rested and rejuvenated from a comfortable night’s sleep. The Costa Rica Yoga Spa maintains a finely-tuned, well-manicured and clean environment. You will get to know people who will provide you with your needs. This adds to the healthy, happy and stress-free environment you will come to love while residing at the Costa Rica Yoga Spa! Yoga instruction is of the highest quality. All members of the Yoga class benefit, regardless of skill level. The covered outdoor Yoga studio, with beautiful wood floors, provides a spectacular view which also adds to the invigorating experience of the Yoga practice!! As a result of days at the beach swimming, surfing or boogie-boarding in the Pacific Ocean, kayaking through the mangroves, or zip-lining across a forest jungle, you may find that your body is in need of a respite from all the healthy activity. A great way to treat oneself at the Costa Rica Yoga Spa would be to request from Jackie a therapeutic deep-tissue massage, which I must say was among the best I ever had!
At night you may find yourself walking up a beautiful path on the resort which leads to an astonishing view related to the spectacular placement of the Costa Rica Yoga Spa. It sits high enough in the mountain to make you feel as though you could swish your hand through a blanket of stars which sparkle like diamonds against the black velvet space above you.

“Everything you Come to Costa Rica for...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 18, 2013

This yoga spa offers a supreme Costa Rica experience. You will be transported in a bubble of pure delight. The meals are prepared fresh and right on the premises. The staff and instructors are present, assistive, calming and kind. The accommodations are simple, clean, and complete. The views are beyond compare; see the ocean span in front of you, after a rolling vision of fields and mango orchards. And last, but not nearly least, is the array of activities to experience: yoga, breath work, Kundalini, surfing, hikes to waterfalls, and so much more...

Room Tip: All rooms have amazing views out the door ~ second level are less wheelchair accessible, but possibl...

“Pure Magic”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 11, 2013

The Costa Rica Yoga Spa is an amazingly beautiful place that contains magic in the air, in the land, and in every facet of the experience. There is a lovely crew of people who feel like family and keep things running super smoothly, helping visitors feel right at home. The food is fresh and amazing, and the rooms spacious and lovely. This is truly an incredible place to visit, and I'm already planning my next trip back this year! I'm thrilled to have had the experience and to be returning to a place that is so magical. Pura vida!

“Amazing staff, amazing vision, amazing!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 11, 2012

The Costa Rica Yoga Spa experience includes delicious food, staff who are beyond "staff" and more like friends, comfortable rooms, gorgeous views, and all the comfort you can imagine. If you want a ride in to the beach (for a great time surfing, or seashell collecting, or walking in the sand), or in to town, or anything to make you more comfortable, there is always someone to help out. If you want a life-giving massage, or a nourishing breakfast, or a place to meet with a group for a yoga class, those are there too. Everything you need is at CRYS, and anything that isn't there? Turns out you don't need it.
