Hi there, Pura Vida!
We are Lila and Andrea!
We are a mother-daughter team, supported by a small group of dedicated individuals, all driven by purpose and passion. With hearts full of love and a deep commitment to your well-being, we strive to create an experience that not only meets but exceeds your expectations. Our family-run farm and retreat center is crafted with care and devotion, ensuring that every detail is touched by our personal intention and warmth.
Our History and Purpose
Once a farmland under threat of being converted into more agricultural land and coffee plantations, Finca Solantis now stands as a sanctuary dedicated to preservation and renewal. We are proud to be one of the few farms protecting the last remaining primary forest not under official protection, safeguarding natural springs, rivers, and a rich biodiversity reservoir.
At Finca Solantis, our mission is to create a space where individuals can escape the busyness of life and reconnect with their souls amidst the magic of nature. We believe in providing an environment that fosters deep rejuvenation and relaxation. Our retreat serves as a sanctuary for self-reflection, detox programs, and holistic experiences, guiding our visitors on a transformative journey towards greater impact and purpose in the world.
Upon arriving at Finca Solantis, you will feel a profound shift within yourself—an inner calmness and rejuvenation that comes from being immersed in nature's purity. Each experience is designed to nurture your mind, body, and soul, promoting a sense of peace and joy on your life's journey.

Our Location
Finca Solantis is located in the small coffee village of Santa Maria de Dota only 1hr 30 south of San Jose surrounded by imposing mountains and lush green views.
Known worldwide for high-quality coffee, beautiful hiking experiences and indigenous culture, Santa Maria is a magical village where you may feel as if time stopped running. One of the community's biggest claims to fame is the shade-grown Tarrazu coffee that thrives in the region’s rich volcanic soil.
