Each space offers its own magical connection to the surrounding landscape, with modern comforts seamlessly integrated into the natural environment.
A Sense of Home
Our guests often comment on how quickly they feel like they belong here, with welcoming humans, animals, and the land itself. Our rooms are designed as a retreat from the wilds of nature - calming, comfortable spaces where you can relax and rest well as you process your insights and connect deeper with yourself. We are here to support you.

Nourishment for Body & Soul 
Experience the authentic flavors of Costa Rica through lovingly prepared local cuisine, shared family-style in our communal dining area or as picnics in nature's cathedral. Our culinary offerings honor both traditional wisdom and modern dietary needs.
Perfect Climate for Transformation 
Blessed with year-round temperatures of 65-85°F and refreshing mountain breezes, Tula Vida provides the ideal setting for deep inner work. Our proximity to Lake Arenal (15 minutes), La Fortuna's adventures (90 minutes), and Guanacaste's beaches (2 hours) allows for endless exploration.
Sacred Accessibility 
Despite our pristine wilderness setting, we're just 90 minutes from Liberia International Airport (LIR), making your journey to transformation seamlessly accessible.
Here, where three volcanoes stand sentinel and pristine rainforest whispers ancient wisdom, every element has been thoughtfully curated to support your transformative journey with Anna and Vincent. This isn't just a retreat center—it's a living, breathing sanctuary where magic and reality dance as one.

Meet Your Equine Guides
Masters of Presence & Connection 
At Tula Vida, our horses aren't just participants—they're wisdom keepers, healers, and transformational catalysts living in sacred harmony with the land. Roaming free as a natural herd, they embody the very essence of authentic connection and present-moment awareness.
The Wisdom of the Herd 
These extraordinary beings are masters of:
· Reading energy and emotional truth beneath human facades
· Creating profound nervous system regulation through their mere presence
· Facilitating genuine connection through vulnerability and authenticity
· Navigating group dynamics with grace and natural leadership
· Offering mirror-like reflection of our truest selves
Natural Healers & Teachers 
Unlike humans, our equine co-facilitators:
· See through social masks to perceive your authentic essence
· Respond to pure energy rather than constructed stories
· Prioritize "being" over "doing"
· Welcome emotions as bridges to deeper connection
· Actively work to create harmony and balance within the group
The Science of Connection
Research confirms what ancient wisdom has always known: horses actively regulate human heart rates and nervous systems through their presence alone. At Tula Vida, you'll experience this healing resonance firsthand as our herd guides you toward your own natural state of balance and presence.
Sacred Partnership 
These wise beings choose to participate in our work, offering their gifts freely and authentically. They become your companions in transformation, supporting, challenging, and illuminating your journey with their profound wisdom and gentle presence.
Are you ready to ride into your most powerful self?
Don't Miss Out!
This is your invitation to dive deep into the waters of transformation, where sacred waterfall pools wash away what no longer serves you.
Here, through the profound wisdom of horse-human connection, you'll rediscover your own wild nature. Under volcanic skies that whisper ancient stories, you'll reconnect with your soul's purpose, remembering who you truly are in this paradise where magic still dances freely. 
"Where horses become mirrors, elements become teachers, and transformation becomes inevitable.” ~ Anna Twinney

Meet Your Guides:
Anna Twinney: The Voice for the Voiceless
A globally renowned animal communicator with circa 10,000 consultations and over 200 hours of educational materials, Anna brings a profound depth of understanding about interspecies communication. Her unique ability spans multiple domains—she is simultaneously a linguistic expert, medical intuitive, behaviorist, healer, life coach, and medium. Sought after by zoos, sanctuaries, rescues, and professionals from diverse fields, Anna's mission transcends traditional communication: she gives a voice to the voiceless, revealing the sacred wisdom animals carry.
Vincent Mancarella: The Inner Wisdom Architect
A transformative life coach who believes we manifest our reality through conscious thought patterns and trust in the magic and miracles all around us. Vincent guides participants to align with their deepest purpose. His philosophy centers on the understanding that all answers reside within—if we possess the courage to look and the trust to act. Vincent specializes in revealing how health challenges are profound messages from the soul, offering a holistic approach to healing that integrates mind, body, and spiritual blueprints.
This is more than a retreat. It's a pilgrimage of the heart, an invitation to reconnect with your most authentic self, guided by the wisdom of horses, the healing power of energy work, and the transformative magic of human potential.
Limited to an intimate group, this experience promises not just a vacation but a profound journey of healing, discovery, and rebirth.
