Wellness, Celebration, and Connection.
Elements is a private estate set high in the rainforest above Lake Arenal, with sweeping views of all four elements. Five distinct villas, 6 healing huts, a 1,200 sq ft yoga deck, a 1,700 sq ft indoor event space, a lake-view pool, 2 hot tubs, a private nature trail, and 13 acres of rainforest all for exclusive enjoyment of your group. Come to slow down, gather your people, and reconnect with nature and yourself.
From the grand Casa Grande to the tucked-away Enchanted Cottage, all five houses are yours when you book Elements. Ten bedrooms and 13 bathrooms sleep up to 29 guests, each villa with its own character, kitchen, and view of the lake or the jungle canopy.
Six healing huts (a sauna, steam room, cold plunge, and crystal and sound healing room among them) set around a central fire, beside a 1,700 sq ft indoor event space with a rooftop yoga deck. Under construction now.

“I’ve hosted 2 retreats here and each time we have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Elements Costa Rica. This villa has everything: luxury, views, yoga, amazing food, and a staff that helps us with anything we could ever need or want during our entire stay. I highly recommend this property!”
“We had the absolute pleasure of hosting our wedding at this beautiful villa, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The property is stunning, impeccably maintained… The hosts were truly exceptional: friendly, responsive, and incredibly helpful throughout. One of the highlights was the incredible private chef, Candy and her team. Every meal was beautifully prepared and a huge hit with all of our guests.”
“This place in the rainforest seriously felt like paradise. The property is absolutely beautiful, peaceful, and perfect for larger groups. It had everything we needed and more. If you’re trying to experience the real Costa Rica, this is exactly where you want to be! The views overlooking the water were just incredible.”
“We had the best stay at Elements. The service was absolutely incredible from start to finish. Everyone was so helpful and welcoming, and the place was spotless and beautifully maintained. And the views… truly unreal. Waking up to the lake and jungle every day was something we’ll never forget. I recommend starting your day with yoga and the view.”
“First of all, the property is STUNNING. We rented the whole entire property for my wellness retreat, and we had so many rooms and space for my group of 15 people. The views are incredible, and the lodging space is very well taken care of, with AC, WiFi, and no bugs inside the houses.”
“Elements Costa Rica is beyond amazing. The pictures do not do it justice. The only way I can describe it is paradise in the jungle. The on-site hosts made it even better, very attentive to everything, including scheduling excursions for us and bringing anything we need immediately. Do not hesitate to book this place.”

Elements was built as a place to be well, share love, and reconnect: with nature, with yourself, and with the people who matter most. It grew from a vision of community, conscious living, and genuine hospitality.
