You’re invited to a week of play, relaxation & adventure in the lush Costa Rican jungle. The Clark siblings are your cruise directors during a week long of yoga, waterfalls, dance parties, pineapples, and light psychedelics. This wellness get-a-way will feel as fun as a summer camp, as healthy as a yoga retreat, and as restful as a beach va-cay! A week in the jungle with the Clarks will invite your inner child out to play while helping bring an over stressed lifestyle back into balance with nature.

We’re hosting at the Jungle Gayborhood, located in the Diamante Valley of Costa Rica. It is a bamboo wonderland with luxury cabins built in harmony with nature. The site is pure magic, home to miles of hiking trails through the pristine jungle, over a mile of a major river, and five significant waterfalls.

This is not a public event – it’s an opportunity to gather our favorite people for a weeklong adventure. Please feel free to invite a +1 of your choice, but please check in with us before extending an invite to additional friends as space is limited.

We’ve aimed to make this as affordable as possible, with different accommodations and different price points. That said, Let us know if you would like to hear about our scholarship program.

Who Is This Retreat For?

ALL! This is a special time of year that the Jungle Gayborhood opens its bamboo gates to everyone including LGBTQ+ AND their allies!

We hope you can make it!


To create a safe environment conducive to healing and community development, we will ask all participants to adhere to these agreements throughout the week. While we will explore topics of sexuality, we will ask participants to refrain from sex during the retreat. This helps to create a safe environment, and encourages deep connections without the motivation of sex, which past participants recognize as a very refreshing change for queer men.
