Casa Cerro Verde
Our founder’s father, Dr. Tom Odom, built Casa Cerro Verde as his paradise after contributing several years to the medical service in Colorado. The breath-taking location is the highlight of our center and it was chosen for beautiful views and close proximity to San Jose city. Besides this, other major attractions include volcanoes, waterfalls, and coffee plantations.
Over the years, friends and family have spent their time here basking in the magic that is la verdadera Costa Rica. We have also opened the space for many retreats and now we look forward to sharing this beautifully created space with equally beautiful people by organizing more retreats in the years to come.
