High-Level Program Overview

WhAT TO EXPECT

The Experience: The sunrise spills sherbet colors over the jungle canopy, the music softening into a warm, golden groove. Across the fire, my jungle crush—naked, glowing, utterly unbothered—turns to warm his perfect butt, and I can’t stop grinning. My new friend, Javier, appears in a turquoise wig, strutting like a runway queen, and with a conspiratorial giggle, grabs my arm. We drift toward the fire together, joining my crush in a tangle of hugs and laughter. 

Our eyes lift across the valley to Diamante Falls—Costa Rica’s tallest—its mist catching the dawn in sparkling halos. For a moment, it feels like a surreal dream. But no—this is real. The jungle is breathing with us, the music is still in our hips, glitter clings to our skin like a secret love note, and my whole body is humming. Life can be this good. And it feels so damn good to remember joy this full.

Schedule Overview:

Mornings begin with tropical fruit and gentle yoga, easing you into the day before jungle beats or a waterfall adventure. Afternoons and evenings are for the magic: jungle raves with DJs who know how to work a sunrise, a sensual workshop that reminds you pleasure is sacred, and spontaneous glitter-covered adventures that somehow turn into soul-deep conversations.
