Located about an hour from the country’s capital of San Jose, Alegría Village is a haven for those seeking to live a self-sufficient, mindful, and regenerative life, while also ensuring that their impact is as minimal yet as beneficial to the surrounding environment as possible.
Founded in 2018, Alegría Village was created by co founder Stephen Brookes as a sister site to his other two eco-villages in Costa Rica: Punta Mona on the Caribbean coast, and La EcoVilla, next door to Alegría Village.
Some of the footage in this video belongs to Alegría Village, Punta Mona and Eco Villa.
