The Vessyl from the air: the pool and main house on the hillside, the Frequency Dome beyond

A different kind of escape.

The Vessyl

The Vessyl is an intimate resort on 118 acres of rainforest beneath Costa Rica’s Arenal Volcano, created for travelers who want an extraordinary Costa Rican escape and the freedom to discover something more. Founded by Charlotte’s Web co-founder Josh Stanley, The Vessyl brings nature, adventure, sound, human connection, ancient systems of understanding and technology into one world. At its center is the Frequency Dome, an immersive spatial-audio environment designed to be felt as much as heard. Guests can go deep, try one unexpected thing, or simply have an incredible vacation. Curiosity is enough here.
