The location is near San Juan Del Sur in the South of Nicaragua. San Juan del Sur is equidistant from two airports:
Managua is the capital of Nicaragua and is about 2 hours away.
Liberia is in Costa Rica and is a similar distance but you will have to go through a land boarder. This is relatively straight forward, and we will arrange transport for you that will take care of everything.
The retreat will be held at the beautiful jungle retreat centre of Costa Dulce.
