The rise in popularity of luxury mental health retreats worldwide is proof that, in today’s fast-paced world, taking care of ourselves has become more important than ever. Not only do we strive for balance and well-being in our everyday lives, but we also demand it when we travel.
So, why is it so important to take regular breaks from our (overly) connected lives and focus on our overall well-being?
Essentially, because the fast-paced nature of modern life often leads to chronic stress, mental fatigue, and burnout. Taking a break ‘from it all’ almost immediately reduces our stress levels, improves our mental clarity, and can even prevent burnout in the long run. Taking a time-out to focus on our mental and physical health allows us to recharge, improves the quality of our sleep – which is essential for well-being – and gives us the oomph we need to be more active, outdoors. This activity, by consequence, improves our fitness and strength.
Beyond the physical, there is also the emotional side. Disconnecting from the world and reconnecting with our loved ones enhances bonds and improves relationships. And that makes us happier above anything else.
Making time for self-care by taking breaks is not a luxury but a smart way to ensure long-term success, happiness, and a more satisfying life!
A haven for anyone seeking the ultimate in relaxation and mindfulness, Costa Rica is the ideal destination for a spot of self-care indulgence. At The Point Luxury Villa, we offer a unique blend of luxury and nourishing self-care. Alongside our opulent décor and outstanding services and amenities, our in-home spa and wellness services aim to provide a revitalizing experience like no other.

The Most Essential Self-Care Trends & How to Perfect Them at The Point
In the world of luxury mental health retreats, the word ‘trend’ can be misleading. Usually, a trend is a popular idea that might fade away after reaching its peak. But in the context of mental health, self-care, and well-being, it’s about the long-term direction an idea is taking.
The most popular self-care ideas are enduring and effective, standing the test of time. Here are the most important to adopt and how easy it is to practice them daily at The Point Luxury Villa:
Enjoy Immersive Experiences in Nature
Spending time immersed in nature, whether it’s a peaceful forest or a serene beach, can have a calming effect on your nervous system. Nowadays, the practice is often called nature therapy or forest bathing.
At The Point, we just call it ‘everyday life!’
At our luxury wellness retreat in Guanacaste, immersing yourself in nature is a breeze. The Point was designed to blend in with the surrounding lush wilderness, offering views of the Pacific Ocean at every turn. Enjoy the sights and sounds of nature from your private bedroom balcony or infinity pool, or take a stroll through the well-kept gardens. With easy access to two stunning beaches and a bevy of outdoor activities, The Point offers a simple and easy way to connect with the natural beauty of Costa Rica.
Practice Mindfulness and Meditation, Daily
Daily mindfulness and meditation is a powerful stress-release technique that increases happiness and focus. These practices involve being present in the moment and paying attention to your thoughts and feelings without judgment.
Stay with us at The Point and you can enjoy daily meditation sessions with professional therapists, who’ll help you create a mental space that will improve your concentration and overall well-being. With these newly acquired skills, you’ll also be able to continue the practice at home.
Improve your Nutrition
A well-balanced wholesome diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins can profoundly affect your physical and mental health. This is how you nurture yourself from the inside out!
Our Signature Chef All-Inclusive Service takes the worry out of meal-planning during your stay. Have every meal prepared by our in-home chef and you’ll ensure you’re nourishing your body with all the proper nutrients. At The Point, you can easily (and deliciously!) make healthy eating an integral part of your self-care routine.
Prioritize Sleep
Long-term sleep deprivation can have terrible consequences for both your mental and physical health. Without enough good sleep we easily get tired and overwhelmed. It’s crucial to prioritize the quality and quantity of your sleep.
The Point’s tranquil surroundings and thoughtfully planned spaces create an ideal environment for relaxation. Cozy bedrooms and quiet corners, both indoor and outdoor, encourage guests to unwind and ensure a restful stay. Fill you days with leisurely and active excursions and come home to a calm cocoon that just about guarantees a good night’s sleep.
Move a Little (or a lot) Every Day
Most of us know that daily movement is immensely revitalizing, yet many don’t realize that ‘daily exercise’ can come in various forms. Whether it’s a brisk walk, a slow swim, a surf session, or an hour-long gym workout, engaging in any kind of physical activity has numerous benefits.
The main point is just to keep moving!
Whether you enjoy an early morning workout session in our in-home gym with a personal trainer or plan to take advantage of the myriad of active excursions we offer, your stay at The Point can be an invigorating and active experience. From surfing lessons to fishing expeditions, guided hikes and kayaking or SUP outings, The Point offers every chance for an active and invigorating stay.

Treat yourself to Beauty and Wellness Treatments
Treating yourself to aesthetic services like facials, body scrubs, and massages can be essential to nurturing your self-care routine. Facials rejuvenate the skin, body scrubs provide relaxation, and massages release tension, creating a holistic approach to self-care that goes beyond surface-level indulgence. That’s why, at The Point, we offer the services of trained professional for our in-home wellness and beauty treatments.
