Once you have completed your reservation, you will receive a confirmation email outlining all the relevant details so that your experience is stress-free, hands off, and each detail planned with your wellness and experience as our top priority. We encourage each guest to schedule a private phone call with our retreat leader Mike so that he will be able to prepare your customized experience fully. Upon arriving at Juan Santamaria International Airport (SJO), you will be greeted by a personal chauffeur who will escort you to the luxurious villa that combines a first-class getaway and blends the amenities of an exclusive resort with the intimacy of a private estate, all located in the mountains of Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica. Once at the villa our team will greet you with a refreshing coconut water and answer any questions that you may have. From there you will begin to immerse yourself in five days of wellness that are customized to meet your individual needs, including, yoga, wellness coaching, ice baths, meditation, breathwork, two plant-based meals prepared by our on site chef, an oversized swimming pool overlooking the pacific ocean as you breathe in the tropical air and begin your journey. With plenty of open space, you’ll have the opportunity to socialize with fellow guests or retreat to privacy in the comfort of your private suite. The villa is equipped with high-speed internet, and all bedrooms are equipped with air conditioning to keep you cool and large verandas to take in the amazing views. Your stay includes daily housekeeping, laundering services upon request, and en suite bathroom toiletries.

We offer personalized wellness experiences in and around the Manuel Antonio area in Costa Rica. We have many years of experience in a wide variety of wellness activities, so begin or enhance your wellness journey today with Niyama Wellbeing!
All classes and sessions are designed as per request by our clients. All levels of experience and fitness are welcome. Why not try a package deal with more than one activity to get the most from your experience?
Niyama is facilitated and led by Mike along with his wife Vivi, who between them offer top-class teaching, guidance, hospitality and memorable experiences that you will cherish forever and want to repeat time and time again. Each practice and activity is designed with the intention of facilitating transformation.
The powerful combination of activities isn't just shown to and done by our guests and clients, but also explained in detail as well. The 'why?' for why we do each activity and how they can have profound impacts on our lives redefines what we believe our limits to be, leaving people feeling revitalized, powerful, courageous, confident, free, and ready to move forward with their lives much happier and healthier.
Niyama is the Sanskrit term for duty or observance, and all practices can be considered inner observances. They are a way of applying the ethical codes of yoga to our minds, body, and spirit, helping to create a positive internal environment.
Two plant-based meals will be served in family style each day of your stay, prepared by an onsite professional chef with classic Costa Rican cuisine and ingredients, as well as a Costa Rican welcome drink included in the price.
