Costa Rica Fitness Reboot: Private Training, Six Hikes and 11 Recovery Treatments

The programme is structured but not rigid. Each day has a fixed frame: yoga at 7:00 AM, three anti-inflammatory meals at Sol Terrace, yoga again at 4:00 PM, and the rest filled with your private training sessions, hikes, spa treatments and the rotating wellness schedule. The welcome consultation on arrival is what sets the shape of the week — the trainer uses it to decide what your four 45-minute private sessions will actually work on.

The six hikes are the backbone of the endurance side. Two are on the property's own mountain trails, described as intimate and accessible. The Bosque Municipal hike goes through the local municipal forest. The urban hike covers the streets and culture of the surrounding area on foot. Minas del Aguacate is the harder trail, leading to the historic gold mines. The Barroeta brunch hike takes about three hours and ends with a traditional Costa Rican brunch — the most social of the six.

The 11 spa and recovery treatments are scheduled around training rather than tacked on. Three BEMER vascular sessions at 25 minutes each target circulation and muscle recovery. Two 60-minute deep tissue massages work on tension and soreness. There's a 60-minute lymphatic drainage massage, two 25-minute infrared therapy sessions, a 60-minute Thai massage combining assisted stretching and pressure work, a 60-minute cavitation body sculpting treatment, and a 90-minute Abhyanga Ayurvedic herbal oil massage.

What separates this from a standard fitness retreat is the ratio of hands-on attention to group work. Four private sessions with the trainer, 11 recovery treatments and six guided hikes mean most of the week is one-to-one or small-group rather than a large class. The anti-inflammatory menu and twice-daily yoga are there to support that load, not to fill the timetable.

Beyond the core programme, you have access to all scheduled wellness activities — sound healing, fitness classes, art therapy, meditation and more. There's also a 45-minute guided sound healing session and a 45-minute cooking class where you learn to make the anti-inflammatory dishes you've been eating, so you can repeat them at home.
