Luxury wellness travel company SwellWomen is expanding its reach for 2017 by offering new retreats in new locations with new focus areas.

The company is now offering wellness retreats at more than 10 exotic destinations across the globe, including a surf and yoga retreat in Costa Rica.

“It is established that travelers seek leisure with a purpose, and our team at SwellWomen is built upon creating experiences that are balanced by wellness,” said SwellWomen’s Chief Executive of Bliss, Lulu Agan.

“Surfing, yoga, self-exploration through experiential activities, and now life-coaching are just some of the retreat options we offer globally,” she said. “More destinations with more options mean you can now choose your bliss.”

In Costa Rica, SwellWomen’s newest addition in the Osa Peninsula, guests have the option to learn how to surf, enjoy life-coaching sessions and opt for wildlife and rainforest excursions.

These retreats are hosted with their new venue partner, Lapa Rios Luxe Eco Lodge, a boutique resort set in a private nature reserve spread over 1,000 acres of Central America’s last remaining lowland tropical rainforest.

The upcoming Costa Rican retreat is set to debut June 10-17 and includes luxury accommodation, gourmet meals, non-alcoholic beverages, surf lessons, yoga classes, massage, swag bag and more.
