Adventure · AerialHacienda AltaGracia
Aerial Escapes by Ultralight
An open ultralight aircraft, a private pilot, and the Talamanca foothills unfolding beneath you. Intimate, exhilarating, unforgettable.
The longest and most protective of our programs. Built for the founder, executive, or senior operator who has been running past capacity for years and finally cannot anymore.
Seven to ten days across a 180-acre private estate in the Costa Rican highlands — real sleep, chef-prepared meals, daily bodywork, unhurried time in nature, and a schedule someone else has built. This is not a medical or clinical program. It is a private wellness retreat designed around rest.

The RicaReset Transformation · What you leave with
A body that finally trusts you to put it down.
You have been running on adrenaline for so long that depletion feels like your personality. It is not. This is the program for the moment your body stops giving you a choice — a week or more of deep, protected rest that does what a vacation cannot.
01 / 04Before
Sleep that is technically happening but isn't restoring you.
After
Deep, uninterrupted sleep, every night.
Blackout suites, no early alarms, protected mid-afternoon rest windows. Most guests report the deepest sleep of their adult lives by night four.
02 / 04Before
Numbness disguised as resilience.
After
Appetite, humor, and curiosity return.
By day five, most guests notice they want to read again, laugh again, taste food again. Not through a program — just because the pressure is finally off.
03 / 04Before
Meals as one more decision at the end of a long day.
After
Three chef-prepared meals, zero decisions.
Anti-inflammatory, whole-food menus built around your dietary needs. You'll notice the difference in your skin, digestion, and energy within days.
04 / 04Before
The quiet fear that this is who you are now.
After
A plan for going home without repeating the same cycle.
Before you leave, you'll build a written 30/60/90-day plan with your concierge — the calendar, sleep, and boundary changes that keep the recovery holding.
"Seven to ten days here is not a vacation. It's a private, protected reset for people who cannot keep pushing."
