Nature - Wellness - Adventure
Breakaway from the “norm” and rediscover balance with this socially-distanced return to paradise at Envision’s sister community. This is an ongoing experience with a maximum capacity of 19 guests, curated by Envision producers with the same intention and quality as the festival.
Envision Festival founder Josh Wendel invites you to escape the winter and reconnect with nature at his mountainside home and retreat center on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica.
We are taking everything you love about Envision Festival and bringing you a socially-distanced jungle getaway. An ongoing experience hosted at sister community Selva Armonía gives guests a holistic sample pack of workshops, excursions, movement practices and exclusive events, all in a retreat center environment with a maximum capacity of 19 guests.

Selva Armonía Retreat Center was as much of an inspiration for Envision Festival, as the festival was an inspiration for what Selva has transformed into. Envision was created to inspire our audience to live in harmony with nature and inspired to be your greatest self. The Festival is a showcase of what is possible, Selva Armonía is the permanent manifestation of that very concept.
With breathtaking ocean views from almost everywhere on the property, comfortable & charming lodging options, an epic swimming pool, open-air yoga temple, & communal areas to discover new friends & ideas, Selva Armonía offers a sustainable living solution that equally values style & comfort.
It is our intention to go above and beyond the guidelines set out by Costa Rica and the Health Department to give our retreat attendees a greater sense of comfort in our activities. We will be taking the following precautions to maximize the safety of the experience:
Hand sanitizers & handwashing sinks have been placed throughout the property and will be refilled regularly.

We are confident, based on official statements encouraging travel from the Costa Rican government, that Costa Rica will not close its borders. That said, we know these are uncertain times and that nobody can predict the future.
In the event that travel restrictions inhibit you from entering Costa Rica or from leaving your own country, you are entitled to a full refund. Refund requests can be processed by emailing info@selvaarmonia.com with your booking ID and proof of government imposed restrictions making you unable to travel.
Programming for The Escape Series requires advance deposits and as such we cannot offer refunds for any other circumstances.
