Prepare for Your Retreat
Make sure you have a valid passport with an expiration date at least 6 months beyond your departure date. No visa is required for U.S. citizens visiting Costa Rica for stays of 90 days or less.
Travel insurance is required for this retreat.
The retreat center provides yoga mats and props, but you’re welcome to bring your own mat if preferred. Pack lightweight, breathable clothing for the tropical climate, along with comfortable walking shoes and swimwear.
Additional items to consider:
An open heart and an open mind
A journal and writing utensils
Books for personal growth or joyful reading
Sunscreen and insect repellent (tropical strength)
Hat, sunglasses, and protective clothing for the sun
Bathing suit for the beach, pool, and spa
Light rain jacket or poncho (July can bring occasional rain)
Reusable water bottle to stay hydrated
In Costa Rica, power plug sockets are of type A and B with a standard voltage of 120 V and a frequency of 60 Hz, similar to the U.S.
Toiletries such as shampoo, conditioner, and soap are provided in the rooms, but you can bring your own if preferred.
Finally, don’t forget cash or a credit card for smoothie bar purchases, dinner out in Puerto Jimenez, shopping, and optional excursions or spa treatments.
Airport Transfers
The easiest route is to fly into Juan Santamaría International Airport (SJO) in San Jose, Costa Rica. From there, you’ll take a connecting flight to Puerto Jimenez Airport (PJM), located approximately 15 minutes from the Blue Osa Retreat Center.
Blue Osa works closely with Sansa Airlines and can assist you in booking your connecting flight from San Jose to Puerto Jimenez. The round-trip cost is approximately $299.
Once you arrive in Puerto Jimenez, Blue Osa provides round-trip airport shuttles to and from the retreat center, included in your retreat package.
We recommend booking a flight that arrives in San Jose early enough to make your connecting flight to Puerto Jimenez. Aim to arrive at Blue Osa by the afternoon of July 12th, 2025, in time for the welcome circle and dinner.
For your return journey, plan for a departure flight in the late afternoon on July 19th to enjoy the morning yoga session and breakfast before checkout.
Consider arriving in Costa Rica a day or two early to explore San Jose or adjust to the tropical climate before the retreat begins.
If your travel plans are delayed or canceled, Blue Osa staff will monitor your flight details and assist with alternative arrangements.
