CULTIVATING PRIDE & AUTHENTICITY
A Transformational Retreat for Gay, Bi & Queer Men
7 Nights | All-Inclusive | Private or Shared Room
Cultivating Pride & Authenticity is a thoughtfully-designed, immersive retreat experience created exclusively for gay, bi, and queer men who are ready to reconnect with themselves, deepen self-trust, and live with greater clarity, purpose, and meaning.
Through guided inner work, sacred ceremony, experiential workshops, and intentional integration, this retreat offers an affirming space to explore identity, release long-held patterns, and strengthen your relationship with yourself and others.
Many members of the retreat facilitation team identify as gay, bi, or queer men themselves. This lived understanding shapes every aspect of the experience — from the way the space is held, to the language used, to the depth of care offered — and provides an environment that feels affirming, grounded, and mature.

reclaim and strengthen your relationship with yourself & OTHERS.
Many gay, bi, and queer men have navigated lives shaped by misunderstanding, suppression, or conditional acceptance. Over time, this can manifest as shame, internal conflict, emotional disconnection, or reliance on coping strategies that no longer serve us.
Cultivating Pride & Authenticity was created as a space where men can explore these patterns with honesty and support, and begin to reconnect with themselves in a way that feels grounded, respectful, and real.

The Hidden Gem of Costa Rica
At the gateway of Costa Rica’s Blue Zone, Reunion is designed for renewal in every sense.
Reunion is an oceanfront sanctuary set along the shores of Costa Rica’s celebrated Blue Zone coastline—one of the world’s longest-living and most life-giving regions. Here, the natural world leads the way, and the rhythm of the waves sets the pace for your return to balance.
Tucked along Costa Rica’s serene coastline on Sugar Beach, Reunion offers all the amenities of an all-inclusive boutique resort, without the crowds. Our secluded oceanfront alcove—less than an hour from Liberia (LIR) International Airport—creates a rare sense of privacy and ease, with optional shuttle service for seamless arrival and departure.
Every element of your stay is designed to restore harmony: nourishing cuisine, thoughtfully curated wellness programs, and experiences that invite deep rest and renewal.
