Nestled in the heart of Cahuita, Caribbean Costa Rica, Eternal Roots Village is an emerging sanctuary dedicated to wellness, cultural preservation, and regenerative community living. This lush, five-acre jungle retreat, just minutes from the Caribbean’s most pristine beaches, is the shared vision of local entrepreneur Jahman Brown and his wife, wellness visionary, Jessi Marino, who are stewarding this land with deep reverence alongside a growing local and global community.
Beyond this sacred space, they have also acquired nine acres of fertile farmland in the nearby mountains, which will soon provide fresh, nourishing food for the village, aligning with their commitment to self-sufficiency, sustainability, and local empowerment.
Together, Jessi and Jahman are cultivating a living, breathing oasis, a place for village-style jungle luxe stays, immersive retreats, festivals, community events, healing arts, and soul-nourishing connections.
