“I strongly suggest this to be the only option for participating in ceremonies. Set and setting are extremely important. The facilities and staff are extremely professional with the best personalities. They are some of my favorite people after visiting. The best place for a positive and safe time to enhance all areas of your life. I've never been able to fully relax and overcome anxiety until my visit there. Thank you!”

“I read many NLA reviews before attending a retreat, and I noticed the word "magical" being used a lot. Well, by the end of the retreat, "magical" was indeed the most fitting description! This was my first experience with ayahuasca, and I can't say enough about the high degree of comfort, well being, and safety I felt. That is all because of Matt and Jeanae, and the safe space they have created for everyone to enjoy. Everything flowed so nicely. The property is absolutely gorgeous with cool mountain breezes and spectacular views. The ceremonies were better than I had imagined - full of wonderful music that could be felt reverberating through my body. The food was amazing, and I came to love and honor all the other guests. We had great conversations, but also I had plenty of alone time, and the most comfortable, private room to enjoy. I could go on and on, but will sum up by stating you won’t go wrong with NLA! Thanks Matt and Jeanae! I hope to visit again soon!”

Farmers Market

FRESH FRIDAY- Farmers Market Trip –

We want our ayahuasca meals to be fresh, healthy and delicious. On Fridays we make trips to the farmers market to buy locally grown organic fruits and vegetables. Much of what we serve in the way of fruits is grown right on-site at our facility and we continue to expand our options with new vegetable/spice gardens on our vast property. But until they are available for harvest, we consciously purchase from local growers in our community.

Today we took two of our guests to help us hand-select the best ingredients for our meals. Aside from fruits and veggies, the farmers market also features locals selling hand made crafts and is a beautiful opportunity for guests to explore the culture of Costa Rica.
