Cascada Elysiana

Greetings from Cascada Elysiana!

We are an Eco-lodge and Retreat Center located in the beautiful jungle of Southern Costa Rica. Located just 30 minutes from Domincal beach, we are in the perfect location for one to experience serene jungle living with proximity to the Pacific coast as well as major cities.

The property also features a river and incredible 40 meter waterfall that all volunteers and guests have easy access to. With other massive waterfalls, rivers, and jungle adventures near the property, you will always have things to do while you are here.

We love meeting new world travelers and creating new connections with super cool humans and we promise you will always be taken care of while you are here. However, our top priority here is always our guests! We provide restorative and transformational experiences for our hotel and retreat guests through superb hospitality, local and fresh vegetarian cooking, and eco-conscious living.

We opened in July 2018 and we are steadily growing. This is why we need great volunteers like you! We are so appreciative of those who want to put their love into this place and help us work toward our vision of one day evolving into solely a retreat center! The atmosphere we seek to create with our staff and volunteers is a balance between having fun and being productive, all-the-while fostering an environment of personal growth and development. With total acceptance of one another and always working together as a team, we know that ANYTHING can be accomplished! And we have accomplished some incredible things here with the help of our volunteers! Cascada Elysiana fosters a multi-lingual and multi-cultural environment. Almost all of our staff is bi-lingual, speaking either Spanish, or English and Spanish combined. Our Organic Master Gardener and builders are all Tico (local) and Spanish-only. Our cleaning and cooking staff is also mostly Spanish-speaking, and any of the interactions you have with locals in San Juan will be in Spanish.
