Welcome to our Creative Writing Retreat in spectacular Costa Rica!
We all crave inspiration, once in a while; the time to dream, the space to think, the energy to pour into a creative project. We need to recharge, to reassert belief in ourselves and to re-imagine how we see ourselves. We need to laugh, to learn new skills, to be alone when we choose to, to be part of a community when the mood takes us and to reconnect with the natural world. It’s hard to imagine a more perfect place to do all this than in our beautiful Costa Rican lodge Las Cascadas Boutique Hotel, close to Manuel Antonio National Park. Come for the writing retreat. Leave with inspiration and memories to last for months and years to come.

Our group was supportive, encouraging, positive and eager to launch into this amazing experience. Together we formed a community we will value forever. Finca Luna Nueva! Our [...]
Five Qualities of a Great Writing Retreat!
The benefits of a writing retreat go far beyond the solitude to write, and likely those benefits will stay with you for years to come. So what exactly should you be saying at the end of a week on retreat? I am a writer! You may love to write – or want to write – but chances are, you spend most of your life being other things – a mother, a teacher, a grandparent, an engineer… whatever. On a writing retreat, you are a writer, pure and simple. Whether you are writing, thinking, jotting down ideas, talking about writing, exploring a [...]
