Reviews of Essence Arenal Spa & Yoga 2*
I cannot recommend this place enough! From amazingly gorgeous views, to incredible therapies, to the most delightful tribe of humans, Essence is a place of healing, of self-discovery, of connection. Nico is an amazing steward of the land and personal guide. He was so thoughtful and insightful in helping to heal some of my traumas, I truly left Essence a different person than when I arrived. Chef Marvin is a master artist in the kitchen. Not a day goes by that he isn't cooking up an amazing vegetarian dish featuring local organic ingredients, most of which are grown in the farm on the premises! The yoga teachers and masseuses are incredible healers and coaches as well. They exude so much joy in their work and are amazing ambassadors for the culture of the place. There are so many opportunities here to re-discover yourself, embody your wisdom, and heal from the trauma that's been holding you back from realizing your full potential. Also, there are so many activities in the area for adventurers! Essence is a life-changing experience, I can't imagine a trip to Costa Rica without a visit to this paradise!
I was so happy arriving to this beautiful property! The staff were all incredibly helpful and friendly, the food was great and the yoga instructor/massage therapist was AMAZING (thank u Steven)! My room was cleaned daily and had a wonderful view of Arenal Volcano. There was just such a sense of peace, calm and safety there. This place truly touched my soul. I cannot wait to return!

We were so blessed to be in unit number 9 that had the best view of all the birds and squirrels that were entertaining us daily! A macaw, 2 toucans, many oro péndolas, and so many more! The spa was also a nice treat with an even better view! The typical breakfast was delicious and everyone was so friendly and helpful.
