Rio Perdido â which means âlost riverâ â is the heart of our now 1,500-acre private canyon reserve. Over thousands of years, the force of its waters carved the 160 ft. deep gorge through this landscape.

Flowing from deep within the earth, these thermal waters create a space for release.
Naturally enriched with minerals containing magnesium, potassium, calcium, silica, and so many other elements, their composition and natural warmth helps ease chronic fatigue, reduce stress, and calm the nervous system, inviting the body to let go of what it quietly carries.
** Always research thermal water destinations and know that most places claiming natural sources do not have them. And sadly, what they purport as being medicinal can actually be unsanitary, and in general, detrimental.

Thereâs a moment right before you go~
where everything in you wants to pause.
To think.
To calculate.
To play it safe.
And then~you choose.
Not because youâre fearless~
but because youâre done letting fear lead.
This week reminded me~
expansion doesnât ask for permission.
It asks for movement.
And the version of you on the other side?
Sheâs not waiting.
Sheâs already decided.
So the question isnât can you do it~
itâs ~will you go?! âĄď¸â¤ď¸âđĽ

Captured on a guestâs phone, during a quiet moment at lunch, a white-faced capuchin emerged, curious, observant, and fully at ease within his surroundings.
Known for their intelligence, they move through the canopy watching, learning, and at times mirroring the world they encounter. Here, the architecture exists within their habitat, allowing these natural interactions to unfold, unplanned, authentic, and part of a living system where wildlife and space remain deeply connected.
Monkey sightings at Rio Perdido are very common; you can expect to be very close to at least two species⌠every single day.

Good food begins with good soil: Costa Ricaâs volcanic earth is naturally fertile, rich in minerals that support nutrient-dense crops. The Mandala Garden follows organic principles, cultivating fruits, vegetables, and herbs that move directly from soil to kitchen.
