Guide to Booking Your Retreat: Surf, Yoga and Wellness in Nicaragua

Craft Your Perfect Retreat for Relaxation, Rejuvenation, and Exploration

At Costa Dulce, your perfect stay is just a few clicks away.

Whether you’re coming for rest, adventure, or a little bit of both, our booking system makes it easy to design a stay that fits you. Start with your room, add a core program if you like, and customize every detail through your personal retreat portal. Or click here if you’d prefer to choose from our pre-planned retreat packages.

Step 1: Book Your Room

Simple beginnings — choose where you’ll wake up each day.

  • Browse our collection of eco-luxury rooms and cabins.
  • Select the dates that work for you.
  • Secure your stay with just a few clicks.
 
🛏️ Tip: Booking early gives you the best choice of rooms.

Why Stay 7 Days or More?

More days, more transformation.

Our experience shows that guests who stay 7 days or longer settle in more fully, relax deeper, and leave feeling truly renewed. A week gives you time to:

 

  • Fully unplug and reset your nervous system.
  • Build real surf skills, not just sample them.
  • Deepen your yoga practice and mindfulness.
  • Explore local culture and nature at a natural pace.
 
Plus, we offer special perks for longer stays — discounted rates, spa treatments, and more.

Stay longer, leave lighter.

Step 2: Add a Core Program (Optional)

Want to focus your stay? Choose one or more of our core daily programs:

  • Surf: Learn to ride the waves with world-class instructors.
  • Yoga: Deepen your practice in our ocean-view studio.
  • Spa: Relax and recharge with treatments and wellness rituals.

Core programs help you get the most out of your stay but are entirely optional.

A Better Way to Retreat

We’ve simplified the booking process so you can design your perfect Costa Dulce experience without overwhelm. Whether you’re planning a solo escape, a surf adventure, or a wellness immersion, you can now book your stay and customize it at your own pace — with no pressure to select a complex package upfront.

Step 1 — Choose Your Dates and Preferred Accommodation

Select your preferred travel dates and room — you can book our full catalog of services or activities at any time from your customer portal or during your stay.

We recommend booking 7 nights or more to truly immerse yourself in the full Costa Dulce experience — trust us, most guests say they wish they’d stayed longer! Plus, when you book a week or more, you’ll receive additional discounts on our Core Daily Programs like Yoga, Surf, and Spa.

Step 2 — Add Core Daily Programs or Browse Our Full A La Carte Menu (Optional)

You can enhance your stay with one or more of our curated Daily Core Programs:

  • Yoga – Twice daily yoga, and morning meditation, in our beautiful shalas

  • Surf – Daily lessons (for all levels), videography, surf analysis and equipment, plus at least 1 weekly surf trip

  • Spa – Choose a daily treatment (Relaxing/Deep Tissue Massage, Body Scrub & Mask, Facial & Foot Massage, Manicure & Pedicure)

  • Sauna & Cold Plunge – Morning sauna, breath-work, and cold plunge with a view from our cliffside spa

  • Culture & Adventure Bundle –  Jungle Hike Town Trip, Cacao Ceremony, and Temazcal Sweat Lodge (available for bookings of 7 nights or longer)

Choose one, a few, or none — it’s up to you.

All activities and services are available to include to your booking at any time before or during your stay.

Step 3 — Pay Your Deposit and Relax

This secures your space — Once you’ve secured your booking with a deposit, you’ll gain full access to our complete menu of wellness offerings, activities, and services — all available to book through your guest portal or as easy, last-minute drop-ins onsite. 

We’ve designed it this way to help reduce decision fatigue and keep your planning simple and stress-free. Rather than overwhelming you with our abundant available services and activities, this approach ensures your experience feels relaxed, intuitive, and fully in your control.

Signature Experiences

Our Signature Retreats offer a seamless way to enjoy Costa Dulce’s most loved experiences. Each retreat includes our signature farm-to-table Meal Plan and a curated set of core activities designed to deepen your connection with nature, community, and self. While the main difference between these retreats is which of our daily Programs are included (Surf, 2x-Daily Yoga, and/or Spa) — they all feature unforgettable experiences like guided jungle walks, live music, a San Juan del Sur trip, and our signature cacao ceremony with temazcal. Let us take care of the details, so you can focus on enjoying the journey.

Not sure if you want to book a full Signature Retreat? If you’d prefer to keep things simple and go more with the flow, you can simply book your accommodation and choose from our core programs — like yoga, surf, or spa — at your own pace. You’ll still gain access to our full wellness menu via your guest portal or can book/drop-in to any activity at anytime during your stay.
