With just 50 luxury casitas set on 180 acres of lush tropical forest in the Talamanca Mountains, Hacienda AltaGracia offers an elevated, nature-immersive retreat. The adventure begins as soon as you touch down on the resort’s private airstrip and meet your Compa—a dedicated trip designer who will help you create a personalized itinerary of adventures. Depending on your preferences, that could be horseback rides, surfing lessons, waterfall hikes or cutting-edge spa treatments at the on-site wellbeing center by New York-based holistic health brand The Well. Meanwhile, kids ages five to 12 can explore a rope course, butterfly garden, and other activities at the Junior Adventurers’ Club.
The one- and two-bedroom casitas are ideal for couples, families and groups seeking tranquility. Some feature private plunge pools and large terraces overlooking the coffee plantations and verdant hills. Rates are inclusive of all meals, non-alcoholic beverages, activities and transfers, so you can completely unwind while indulging in farm-to-fork meals and classes led by visiting wellness specialists. Don’t miss the Edible Garden Dinner Series at the El Cultivo garden or the barbecue and horse show inspired by the region’s rodeo traditions.
