Welcome to our Creative Writing Retreats in Spectacular Costa Rica!

Toucan

We all crave inspiration in today’s hectic world:  the freedom to dream, the space to think, the time to focus on creating rather than consuming. We need to recharge and re-imagine how we see ourselves. To laugh, learn new skills, be alone when we choose to and be part of a community when the mood takes us. To reconnect with the natural world, and re-assert our connection to it.

It’s hard to imagine a more perfect place to satisfy these needs than beautiful Costa Rica. Join us for a creative writing retreat in sunny Quepos, a coastal town close to the famous Manuel Antonio National Park. Or, if rainforest serenity and immersion is more your vibe, choose a beautiful eco-lodge in the heart of Arenal National Park. Have two weeks to spare? Then take part in both weeks and enjoy two very different sides of Costa Rica.

Our creative writing retreats are not only informational – they are transformational.

Who joins our creative writing retreats?

Most writers attend our retreats alone, though some bring family or friends. We welcome beginning writers and those with completed manuscripts. Some participants choose to focus entirely on their creative work, while others combine our morning workshops with sightseeing tours. Whether you enjoy writing fiction, memoir, poetry, and even if you’re not sure what you like, our daily workshops will offer you the inspiration and techniques you need to further your writing skills. On retreats like these you quickly meet like-minded people, making them ideal for those travelling alone.

Whoever you are, whatever your needs, you’re welcome on our retreats.

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 [...]
