Samasati Retreat Center is a rainforest retreat in Hone Creek, Costa Rica, offering a quiet setting for guests looking to rest, reconnect, and spend time close to nature. The property features basic rooms and bungalows, with a peaceful atmosphere shaped by the surrounding forest.
Guests come here for yoga classes, nourishing meals, and a stay that feels simple, comfortable, and grounded in the landscape. Based on guest experiences, the center is also appreciated for its caring staff, spacious cabins, and the sense of privacy that comes from being tucked into the mountainside while still remaining within reach of Puerto Viejo, nearby beaches, and town.
Located in Limón Province, Samasati is open daily from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Visitors can expect a secluded rainforest environment, ocean views from some rooms, and a setting that supports both quiet reflection and time spent exploring the surrounding area.
