If you are looking for a spot to relax in Rincon then I have the perfect place for you. This is the Samatahiti Eco Resort retreat center, nestled in the quiet tree top neighborhood of the Puntas section of town. The owner, Renee, is a master yoga instructor and offers everything from relaxing day trips to secluded parts of the island, to adrenaline pounding surf sessions, paddleboard tours, aerial yoga and more. Basically, if it’s something outdoors and that can make you sweat, you’re bound to encounter that activity here.

The resort features four canvas bell tents (“glamping!!”) each featuring it’s own color coordinated theme with real beds and solar lighting. There are bathrooms with open air showers and pebbled floors. Hot water is provided from solar tanks, and all the lighting throughout the resort is solar as well. You’ll be surrounded by the jungle and various fruit trees, and fall softly to sleep with the sound of the native tree frog, the coqui.

Samatahiti features retreats all throughout the year. If you’re in Rincon and would like some yoga, be sure to stop by this place for a session on the yoga deck. I personally love the evening class, where your view right before svanasana is a starlit night.
