Discover Pure Relaxation and Healthy Living at Pura Vida . . .

Pura Vida USA Wellness& Yoga Retreat is an ideal place to withdraw, disconnect, and, simply relax. The resort lies serenely in the foothills of the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains, on 72 pristine acres near the historic gold rush town of Dahlonega. This former 1920's-style farmhouse has been transformed into a bed and breakfast with spectacular views of the Chattahoochee National Forest. The intoxicating fresh air and woods will lull you out of the big-city blues; an outdoor Jacuzzi, nature trails, spa treatments and yoga sessions will reinvigorate your mind, body and spirit. Choose an inn-style room or a private cabin.

Mountain

Overlooking the North Georgia Mountains - part of the spectacular Blue Ridge chain - the resort sits near gold mines where you might still find a nugget or two; plus, it's surrounded by the area's famous wineries, with easy access to natural wonders like the Appalachian Trail and Amicalola Falls.

Nature

To complement your refreshing, renewing experience, the resort sits amid a haven for deer, geese and heron; nesting birds include red tail hawks. Fish for bass from the private, onsite pond. Or visit the tallest cascading waterfall east of the Mississippi at nearby Amicalola Falls State Park.

Romantic

Choose the ultimate in relaxation for two: here is a spa, weekend yoga classes, spectacular food, fine wine and English-style wildflower gardens. Your own Bear Den cabin is a wooded and secluded getaway featuring a king bed, private bath and plenty of chances for an evening hot tub under the stars.

Spa

It's a delightful combination: the spa offers therapeutic massages, facials and more, plus hearty breakfasts. Weekend yoga classes (Friday at 5 p.m. and 11:00 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday) draw on elements of 5000-year-old hatha traditions designed to unite you in mind, body and spirit.

Cabins And Cottages

Surrounding the restored Farmhouse and breezeway-connected Barn are eight “Bear Den” cabins, each with its own slice of peace and serenity in the North Georgia mountain woods. Each tastefully appointed cabin is situated among nature trails and an open air hot tub, ideal for any time of day or night.

Inns And B & B's

The Farmhouse – restored and exquisitely cozy – features 16 spacious rooms that highlight the relaxation all around you. A huge watsu tub sits on a deck, ideal for viewing the clear, bright stars at night. B&B rates also apply to the five-bedroom cottage, one of which is a suite, great for groups.
