With a dense Rainforest jungle in a mountain as a backdrop, we built Costa Rica’s first Eco Retreat 30 years ago. Our retreat was built with simple tools wielded by bare hands with the goal of minimal impact on the environment and eco system. Land and trees were not cleared, instead structures were positioned so they would blend with the surroundings. Rainwater was chosen as the primary water source. It is captured, filtered and used throughout the property. We made ecological promises to the land that we are privileged to occupy and adhere to that spirit to this day. We are guardians of a Biological Reserve that comprises over 250 acres of primary and secondary Rainforest making it one of the largest in the area. It is home to a rich and diverse variety of vegetation, flora and fauna. Some examples are sloths, monkeys, frogs, snakes, spiders, anteaters, butterflies, bats, kinkajous, margays, ocelots, and even some that are under threat of extinction. In addition, there are well over 200 species of birds on the Samasati property.
