MOVEMENT, MINDFULNESS & STILLNESS
Wellness Practices
Wellness practices can be included or selected within your retreat — offered according to your retreat theme, package level, facilitator, and provider availability. These are individual experiences that may sit within a retreat; the Wellness & Renewal package is a complete bookable retreat, not a single practice.
-
Yoga and Meditation
Guided movement and mindful practice on the open-air yoga deck can be part of your retreat — offered to bring the body back into its natural rhythm and open space for the day ahead, depending on facilitator and provider availability.
-
Massage and Healing
Therapeutic bodywork sessions can be included in your retreat to release held tension and support relaxation and ease — offered according to facilitator and provider availability.
-
Sound Healing
Sound and vibrational practice can invite profound stillness — offered to quiet the mind and settle the nervous system as part of your retreat, depending on facilitator and provider availability.
-
Breathwork
Conscious breathwork is one of the most direct paths to inner change. Guided sessions can help release what is held and expand awareness — offered as available within your retreat theme and package.
-
Restorative Sessions
The quietest moments of a retreat are often the most powerful. Restorative sessions — tea, journaling, forest walks, guided reflection — create the unhurried pauses in which real restoration takes place.

FAQ
Questions about things to do in Cahuita
-
Is Cahuita worth visiting?
Yes, especially if you want the Caribbean coast without the crowds. Cahuita has a national park at the end of the main street, a coral reef, Afro-Caribbean food and music, and a slower pace than the Pacific side. Casa Del Soul is here for that reason.
-
What is the top attraction in Cahuita?
Cahuita National Park: a coastal trail through rainforest with sloths, monkeys and iguanas, beaches you can swim from, and a coral reef offshore. A guided hike there is included in the Essential package.
-
Is three days enough in Cahuita?
Three days covers the park, the reef and one cultural tour. Five days, our retreat length, adds horseback riding, a rest day and a waterfall without rushing.
-
What activities are available for guests?
Guided park hikes, waterfall tours, the chocolate tour, horseback riding, beach experiences, ATV, ziplining, whitewater rafting, a couples massage and a sunset boat experience. Which ones are included depends on your package level.
-
Do I need a car in Cahuita?
No. Excursions are coordinated for retreat guests, and transportation coordination is available for arrivals. A car is only worth it if you want to explore the coast on your own.
-
Where should I go next?
These excursions are included by package on the wellness retreat and adventure retreat; compare all packages and reserve your spot. The national park at the end of Cahuita's main street is described on Wikipedia.
