Radical Broccoli Surf Retreat
February 22-27, 2026 | Playa Hermosa, Santa Teresa, Costa Rica
A week of movement, ocean, and deep connection.
In February 2026, we gathered for a Radical Broccoli Surf Retreat in Costa Rica, just steps from the shores of Playa Hermosa in Santa Teresa.
Days were filled with surfing, yoga, and embodied movement…
Balanced with nourishing meals, powerful workshops, and moments that shifted perspectives and brought us closer to ourselves.
There was a sense of energy. Of play. Of coming alive in the body again.
And while this retreat has already happened… the journey continues!

Self Love Retreat 2026 - Save your spotThe Experience
This retreat was created as a space for self-growth, connection, and coming back into alignment. A place to open your heart, explore your full self, and reconnect with what truly matters.
Days unfolded in a natural rhythm—mornings with surfing or yoga, nourishing meals, time to rest, and workshops that invited reflection, release, and new awareness.
Surfing became a powerful teacher.
A mirror for our inner dialogue, our fears, and our ability to trust and go all in.

Evenings brought us together again through ceremonies, movement, sharing, and moments to slow down and integrate.
Surrounded by ocean, nature, and a like-minded community, something shifted.
The Location
For our second retreat of 2026, we stayed at a beautiful surf house in Playa Hermosa, Santa Teresa, just steps from the beach, known as one of the best spots for an RB Surf Retreat in Costa Rica, suitable for all levels.
We will wake up hearing howler monkeys, awaken with the sun, hear the birds chirping, enjoy a morning beverage, step outside and observe the beautiful greenery.
Mornings began with the sounds of nature — howler monkeys, birds, and the soft light of the sun rising over the lush greenery.
There was a sense of ease from the moment you arrived.
Whether coming alone or with a friend, the experience quickly turned into something shared, a space filled with like-minded women, connection, and growth.
A Typical Day
6/7 am: wake up to soft sounds of the jungle. Hydrate and have some fruits/snacks. Wake the body slowly with natural sunlight
7/8 am: pickup your surf-board and head down to the beach for our surf-lesson or meet in the shala for some movement
9 am: delicious, tropical breakfast in our outdoors dining area created by our in-house chef. Eating and enjoying slowly
10 am: take some rest, alone time, journal. Let the impressions soak in, and your brain and body process
12 pm: delicious lunch either at a local café or at our retreat location
13.30 pm: workshop with Anette/Susanne. Topics such as deepening self-love, neuroscience, manifestation, scripting, growing through our fears
5.30 pm: gathering with some fresh coconut water to watch the sun set across the horizon, with our magical view
6 pm: delicious dinner together, enjoying seasonal and local varieties, and hopefully trying something new
8 pm: close the day in the shala with some light movement, sharing session, journaling together or pulling cards, before sleeping like a dream
The Menu
Food was a vibrant part of the experience.
We enjoyed nourishing, home-made meals prepared by a local in-house chef — centered around fresh, tropical, and seasonal ingredients, with a mix of plant-based dishes and local fish.
Each meal was colorful, energizing, and deeply satisfying, fueling our days of movement, surfing, and connection.
We also experienced local flavors like Gallo Pinto, Casado, fresh batidos, pipa frío, and plenty of plantain—a true taste of Costa Rica.

"This retreat was truly life-changing. It was a big step for me to travel, but I felt so held and loved from the first moment I arrived. Both by Susanne and Anette and by the incredible women attending. The impact of this retreat keeps showing up, even weeks after. I came with a purpose to open my heart and increase self-love and got that and SO much more. New parts of me have surfaced in the best way. The workshop and meditations, the community, the surfing, and the horseback riding were just pure soulfood! I will be forever grateful!!"

"This was my second retreat and I can truly say they are life changing and just magical. In the few days together you get to know each other on such a deep level that it’s actually mind blowing. I really wish for every person in the world to experience something like this. You understand on a deeper level that everyone has something challenging in their lives. And the vulnerability makes us all so connected ❤️ The workshops were just amazing, one of my biggest take aways was that you can actually talk SO nicely to yourself and treat yourself with so much love. The mornings together were so beautiful, I started every day with meditation, then a swim in the pool and then our morning movement together with the most beautiful meditations at the end ❤️ Other than that the location was magical, the food was super good and I just loved being there. Have made so many beautiful friends that make me feel like I belong! 🥹❤️ PARADISE!"

"Thank you so much Anette and Susanne for an incredible retreat! I felt held and supported through the whole process from booking to arriving back home. It felt like a relieving sigh to enter the retreat. The feeling of constant awe of the beautiful place and the abundant nature surrounding us still remains in my heart. The same goes for the the lovely ladies who I am so grateful to have shared this special experience with. The feeling of coming home to myself enveloped me, and also ignited the fire of wonder and possibility for what is yet to create in my life. Thank you for holding space both in your heart and arms for us all. Thank you for creating and leading lifes that will continue to inspire<3"

"The Radical Broccoli retreat in Costa Rica was changing my life already when I ordered. Big words, but I feel so elevated, expanded and full of motivation to thrive into my next level after this retreat! The retreat serves you a "vitamin shot" of beautiful woman on the same journey, knowledge and experiences from Anette and Susi, who transferred their own lifestyle and are now living their passion. Further more practices to calm your nervous system, and tools to start manifesting your biggest drams. Topped with local, fresh home made food and a dreamy location makes this the perfect space for transformation and relaxation. To wake up to the sounds of the jungle and walk barefoot down and meet the other girls in the morning, being guided through a morning routine before a jump in the pool and a delicious breakfast is served. It is really worth the investment. New friends and a kick start on the changes I want to make in my life. Forever grateful! <3"

"This has been such a nourishing week where I have really had the opportunity to make deep contact within. There has been nourishing food, drink, meditation, conversations and togetherness, rest, movement, challenges, new perspectives and inspiration to live life more to the fullest. Dare to expand your comfort zone, dare to believe that life can offer more. Dare to believe that I have more inside me than I previously believed. Good seeds for more self-love have been sown. I am deeply grateful for the energy that Susanne and Anette have put into the retreat and shared with those of us who were present. <3."

"Coming to this retreat was such pure love! I was hoping to meet some amazing women, but I was not prepared that it would actually be this good<3 The energy and inspiration I got from these women was so amazing, and it felt safe to share from the moment we met. Investing in this is the best thing I have ever done for myself, and being held and supported in a place like this, is a feeling of love I will remind myself of whenever I need to."

10/10"During the last day at the retreat I realized how I have manifested an experience like this for myself for quite a while and how it now has come to life on a level I could have never imagined. I am so very grateful! It was a week where I only had to focus on receiving, connecting with beautiful likeminded people and just being. My nervous system was regulated and I came home with new tools and perspectives to start living a life that is truly right for me. I feel more connected to myself and trust that it is only the beginning".- Sara, Norway July 2025

"I had the best time ever at the Nøsen retreat with Radical Broccoli. The program was so exciting and diverse, and I think there were activities that could suit everyone there. Anette and Susanne are very professional, and the yoga, meditation, and workshop sessions were very well planned. They created a space where we could all be open and truly go deep within ourselves. The group was also amazing, 17 open-hearted and supportive women, offering the possibility for deep and beautiful conversations without any judgment. I feel like I’m already a changed person, and there are so many simple and useful tools I’ll bring into my everyday life to live an even more authentic and happy life. Can’t wait to see when all the magic we have manifested will start happening! ❤️"
