SoulShine

This was the last stop of a 2 week trip in Costa Rica - so glad we decided to stay here for our final night. SoulShine was an incredible experience all around - the cabins were well set up for our family of 4. It was nice to have access to a communal kitchen (larger fridge, extra dishes, etc). The pool was very relaxing and the grounds of the property are just stunning. We had breakfast at the restaurant in the morning and it was the most delicious culinary experience. If you stay here DEFINITELY EAT BREAKFAST HERE - you will not be disappointed. We are already planning on coming back to SoulShine next time we are in Costa Rica. Thanks for an incredible experience! One tiny disappointment was that the restaurant stops serving food and drinks at 2pm. We arrived just as it closed and were sad we couldn't order one of their delicious looking cocktails to enjoy by the pool!

SoulShine was a great option to stay with a toddler. Every cabin has its own little jungle garden which provides privacy and makes you feel part of the nature. Monkeys come visit you regularly there which our toddler loved. It’s really convenient to have a little kitchen with everything you might need in our case right next to our cabin. The room is on a smaller side but cathedral ceiling makes it feel larger. I thought bed linens and towels including pool/beach towels needed an update. They were very visibly dated. What we didn’t like is that the hotel is located on a long dirt road. Since we wanted to explore various areas of Guanacaste during our stay, we had to drive on it every day and it wasn’t a fun experience at all especially if it rained. Same with walking there. Other than that the area has a nice vibe and some good places to eat within walking distance.

I can't say enough positive things about soulshine. There is something very special about this place. The owers energy, the food, the magic of nature(monkeys, iguanas, hummingbirds, butterflies, ect.), the confort of the rooms, and so much more. Ive stayed there twice in the past year post Ayahuasca ceremonys and find the right balance of peace and connection. I highly recommend any Rythmia people looking for post ceramony integration to check it out. Weather you're a family with kids or a solitary traveler such as myself Soulshine provides something special. Magic!

Roy and Yale were amazing hosts. They were so welcoming and wanted to make sure we had everything we needed! We absolutely fell in love with there Pura Vida vibe of a boutique hotel. The rooms were amazing, your own bungalow and had access to a shared outdoor kitchen if you needed it. But you didn’t need it because the restaurant is the most amazing foods we had on her entire trip. The food and the presentation was truly outstanding!!! The French toast will be the best you’ve ever had! We started our trip here and missed our bungalow by the end of our trip for sure. Everything about our stay was magical! Private, low key and a wonderful family running it, a must stay!!
