OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU

We are called to serve medicine in sacred ceremony with integrity, humility, and compassion. By creating a safe space and working only with experienced, well-intentioned healers and facilitators, we uphold the lessons of the medicines and build a foundation of mutual trust, authenticity, and respect. We are not gurus, preachers, or enlightened beings – our healers are Maestros who humbly transmit the knowledge and healing energies of the plants, and our facilitators are devoted to helping guests face, process, and explore difficult experiences and emotions, handle projections, manage expectations, and surrender to the process. We strive to uphold the highest integrity in everything we do and be a beacon for responsible, safe, and ethical practices, such that our guests feel safe and supported to get the most out of their healing.

Tucked away on seaside cliffs overlooking the Gulf of Nicoya, our secluded slice of sundrenched paradise is surrounded on all sides by the vibrant sounds of the tropical forest. Awaken each morning to bird songs, monkeys playing in trees, & crashing waves in the distance. With comfortable accommodations, plenty of shady nooks, a deck to watch the waves or gaze at the stars, & a sacred maloca ceremony space, we invite you to an immersive experience letting nature surround you in harmony & peace.

We believe healing even takes place in the kitchen. We take on the mantra by the Greek physician, Hippocrates: “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” We honor the role of food in our lives and expand it beyond its primary purpose of bodily nourishment – food can be an avenue to dig deeper into ourselves, consciously looking at our patterns and mindsets surrounding not just what we eat, but how and why we eat what we do. Our eating habits don’t just affect our mental health, they also reflect it. At Soltara, we aim to help you jumpstart this process of connection through conscious cooking on all levels. Diet is an important part of the healing process, both on its own and also to help prepare the mind and body for plant medicine work. We work closely with our shamans to prepare wholesome, delicious meals that adhere to the traditional dietary guidelines of working with ayahuasca. All of our meals are freshly prepared in-house by our loving kitchen staff. From fresh smoothies and juices every morning, to plant-based meals emphasizing local, organic, and sustainable produce, to lean proteins such a chicken and fish, we celebrate the rich local flavor of Costa Rican cuisine, and offer a chance to experience a connection to the land and culture while nourishing the body, mind, and spirit.

Amazing

Absolutely bar none the most incredible healing place I've ever seen! The Goddess Falls location was all about me and my opportunity to work on me! Not a lot of extra curricular activities and I was okay with this because I came to focus on me! The staff gave me all of the tools to do so!! Thank you Soltara-Goddess Falls

Blessed to have been at Goddess Falls

The facilitator were absolutely beautiful souls. There every step of the way with open hearts. The food was delicious, my body truly feels rejuvenated by it.

As for the location. I chose Goddess Falls as I wanted to be in the jungle closer to nature as I undertook this journey, and more minimalistic surrounding much allowed to me to better access my thoughts and feelings without distraction. And it definitely gave me that and more. Would for sure return in the future.

Very honed experience that exceeded expectations

I got everything I asked for in this trip. The facilitators had considered every detail, and one could just turn off their brain and open wide for the experience. Very special, unique, and authentic experience that will be remembered for life.

Professional

I have sat with Aya 14 times across three different settings, including twice at Soltara in 2023 and 2025. The best word to describe Soltara is "professional." Their process is refined and follows clear best practices, yet it is not clinical at all. This effective balance is largely due to the highly curated facilitators and maestros, all of whom exemplify a professional attitude. Thank you for taking this medicine and process so seriously.

Soltara Goddess Falls

This review is for Soltara Goddess Falls. Words cannot express how thankful I am to the whole Soltara team, specifically Stefania, Paola, Keith, Leah and our wonderful Maestros. The kindness, compassion, commitment and knowledge that they shared with me this past week will stay with me for the rest of my life.

The location is beautiful, the luxury tents are very comfortable as are the shower/bathroom facilities. The nature is serene and the perfect location for the work that is being done there.
I will be dreaming about the incredible food for a long time. I loved the yoga, both teachers were incredible and I am going home with a budding hobby.

The experience itself was transformative. The medicine and maestros work together in harmony to give you exactly what you need (maybe not always what you want or what you think you are looking for). This was a truly healing and enlightening process and I feel like I have left with a totally new outlook on my life, filled with gratitude, clarity, forgiveness and love.

I felt safe (physically & emotionally) and guided the whole time. They really have everything down to a science and operate with our safety as their number one concern.

If you are considering starting or continuing your relationship with ayahuasca I whole heartedly recommend doing it with Soltara. Thank you all again. I will absolutely be back.
