Stay with Us at Qasa
Nestled on 300 acres of pristine jungle along Costa Rica’s southern Pacific coast, Qasa is a one-of-a-kind boutique hotel built almost entirely from locally sourced bamboo. Our cabins are handcrafted, our community is intentional, and our surroundings are breathtaking.
During your stay, you can shape your own rhythm — explore private jungle trails and waterfalls, join morning yoga and breathwork classes (included), book a massage or bodywork session, take excursions to nearby beaches and Nauyaca Falls, or simply rest in your cabin surrounded by forest canopy.
While some of our retreats and events are tailored for specific groups within the LGBTQIA+ community, our hotel stays are open to all guests who respect our community agreements.
Accommodations share a stunning communal bamboo bathhouse with hot showers and thoughtfully designed amenities – simple, beautiful, and full of heart.
Whether you’re here to recharge or to reawaken, we invite you to find your perfect rhythm – balancing rest and movement, stillness and connection. Unplug, reconnect, and let nature do its magic. Digital Nomads, don’t worry – we have high-speed fiber-optic internet (100MBPS) if needed.
During your stay, you can shape your own adventure.
Options include:
Exploring jungle trails, rivers, and waterfalls right on the property - including clothing-optional swimming spots

Booking healing sessions with local practitioners (bodywork, massage, vocal activation, and more - inquire on-site)

While some retreats and events are tailored for specific groups within the LGBTQIA+ community (and clearly noted as such), Qasa hotel warmly welcomes all people – of all genders, bodies, sexualities, backgrounds, ages, and spiritual paths. Discrimination of any kind is not tolerated. To support a safe, expansive, and respectful space, we ask all guests to align with our community agreements, rooted in consent, care, and celebration.
