One of Costa Rica’s leading hotels has announced the upcoming launch of a major new spa.

The Retreat Costa Rica, set on Crystal Mountain in Atenas, is set to debut a new 7,000-square-foot Vida Mia Ayurvedic Healing Center and Spa.

The center, which will be the first Ayurvedic healing center in the country, is slated to debut June 8.

The brainchild of owner Diana Stobo, the property will include seven treatment rooms along with resting lounges and special events areas.

It was designed by local architect Luis Edwardo Ortiz, with interiors by France’s Veronique de la Cruz and Costa Rica’s Andrea Artinano.

Every guest at the center will receive customized assessments by the center’s in-house “healer,” while a medical practitioner will also be on staff along with a personal trainer.

“After traveling the world as a healing and spa junky, I have discovered the most effective and exciting tools to create the perfect healing experience,” Stobo said.
