Kinkara

Tucked away at the foot of Mt. Chirripó in Costa Rica’s biodiverse Southern Zone, Kinkara is an experiential luxury retreat center, with pristine nature to reconnect you with the land.

Whether swimming in a jungle waterfall, savoring exquisite farm-to-table cuisine, resting in the bell tents or feeling a deep state of sanctuary,

Kinkara offers moments of beauty and self-discovery.

Kinkara is known for its hand-picked organic produce and the delicious eating experience.

Located at the heart of the Mandala Garden, El Morén – meaning “well-being” in the Brunca language – is an exquisite 360 open-air movement space where we will be gathering for our sessions during this immersion.

Accommodations

30 belle tents rest on the land.

Each features exquisitely crafted hardwood furniture, sumptuous mattresses and pillows,
organic cotton linens, daily housekeeping, and close proximity
to immaculate spa-inspired Bath Houses.

The Bath Houses are communal and offer luxury in their details.

The tents are fully furnished and equipped with an extensive list
of amenities including solar-powered lighting, soft robes,
USB charging pods and Wi-Fi.
With netted windows for airflow and thick organic cotton linens,
snuggle up for a night of nurturing sleep.
