THE LAPAZUL EXPERIENCE

Helping you transform your retreats from ordinary to extraordinary.

YOUR GUIDE TO UNPARALLELED SUCCESS

Elizabeth-Patricia will help you build a retreat that is transformational for all who attend. Even you!

Lapazul is a one-of-kind luxury retreat center built to offer unforgettable retreats for groups up to 17. It was designed for your comfort and enjoyment, so you can take full advantage of the view. From the minute you arrive at the center to the minute you leave, you experience heaven on earth. 

The spacious rooms have high ceilings, deluxe bathrooms, and an ocean view, which you can take advantage of sitting on your private balcony while listening to nature’s sounds and reflecting on the day’s experiences. 

This is the perfect backdrop for your corporate retreat. It is a way to connect with your colleagues, not just supply them with information. Imagine planning your retreat with a bestselling author, experiential retreat leader, transformational coach, and sought-after inspirational speaker who knows what it takes to build and deliver outstanding retreats designed to not only achieve your goals but strengthen your team. 

Imagine traveling with your team to an exotic land, immersing in the local culture.

Experiential retreats are about immersing you and your team in the culture and having the time to absorb it all.

Not only does your team have an opportunity to spend quality time together, they have the opportunity to learn and group as a group and individually. 

Incorporating retreats into your yearly plans will provide lasting benefits for your team and your organization. And Lapazul is your partner to make things uncomplicated by handling the unknown.

Five Things You Need to Know about Experiential Retreats.

A growing trend in corporate retreats is to host them internationally. However, this can often be a very intimidating concept for those not familiar with organizing retreats or taking their show on the road beyond just workshops or conferences. Lapazul is with you every step to make the process simpler and enjoyable for everyone. 

One:

There is no cookie-cutter formula for successful retreats. Each retreat will be different because of the participants. You must know how to adapt to make the experience resonate with your group. 

Two:

The line to success is not necessarily a straight line. It’s about a process that works and allows you to adjust as things unfold.

Three:

Delivering a retreat is like putting together a jigsaw puzzle. There is no predetermined order or set must-dos, and it is fully customizable to your group’s needs. 

Four:

Retreats should be designed to strengthen your team and set them up for future success. 

Five:

Successful retreats are tailored to your company, team and goals.

Uncomplicated & Unforgettable

Lapazul’s chef prides herself in using fresh locally grown food to create one of a kind menus that you can experience throughout your stay as they are included in your retreat (alcohol beverages excluded).

The chef will work with you to customize your selections to match your group and retreat.

You can find us early in the morning selecting from the day’s catch. And each day local farmers provide us with an amazing assortment of fresh produce for the things we can’t supply from our own edible garden. The Costa Rican climate lends itself to year-round fresh fruit and vegetables like bananas, pineapples, yucca, and many tropical fruits. And don’t to forget the world renown Costa Rican coffee. Delicioso!

~ Denise Reed

I have been to many retreat centres over the years, and I’m delighted to share that Lapazul is my absolute favourite! From the exquisite food, to the genuinely peaceful and happy staff, to the 5-Star accommodations overlooking an infinity pool and the ocean, to nightly sunsets and spectacular wildlife, the entire experience was unforgettable. Plus the added bonus of the proximity to the beach, the town of Dominical and excursions like Ziplining and nature walks. I will be back!
