CAHUITA
Can you truly preserve nature untouched in the heart of the jungle? Can you support the natural world while becoming a part of it without causing harm? Can you improve it?
Marcelo and Jacqueline have embodied the role of 'Keepers of their Cahuita Land' from the very beginning.
By preserving the landscape as it was, while making thoughtful additions to support the ecosystem through the seasons, they have created an eco-resort and healing center that blends seamlessly with nature. Using sustainable principles, Marcelo and Jacqueline have created a community that not only preserves the environment but also provides local jobs and offers garden-to-table experiences for their clients and family. Their eco-resort and healing center thrive in harmony with nature, supporting both the land and the people who call it home.

In 2004, Jacqueline and Marcelo established these Caribbean-style hotels, choosing to protect the jungle while sharing their beautiful land with the conscious traveler at a fair price. Hotel La Diosa is a beachfront property featuring handmade Caribbean-style bungalows.
The Goddess Garden hosts Yoga teacher certifications, yoga and dance retreats, spiritual retreats, workshops, eco-tours to the Bribri reserve, and adventure getaways. These offerings cater to travelers eager to immerse themselves in the Caribbean side of Costa Rica, experiencing the Howler monkey corridor, tree sloths, and bird watching amidst grand trees, lush jungle, and ocean views.
The Goddess Garden, nestled deep in the jungle, functions as an eco-resort and spiritual center. It includes a business center, a healing spa, a palapa yoga room, and a stunning yoga studio—the ideal place for meditation and blending with the jungle sounds.​​
