Slow down. Wander farther. Chase waterfalls.

During the week, guests will visit two of the region’s most epic waterfalls; Nauyaca and Diamante, and explore hidden gems such as San Luis, Coto, and Santa Lucia.
This is a choose-your-own-pace retreat. Join every hike or opt to relax back at the property. There’s no pressure to do it all; just space to enjoy what feels right for you.
You’ll stay at Finca Bella Vida, nestled in nature, with beautiful views, forest trails, our own falls, and the soothing sounds of the jungle. Nourishing farm-to-table meals are included, prepared with fresh local ingredients and served in a warm, communal setting.
