About Mandala Ojochal - https://mandala-ojochal.com/
Mandala Ojochal is a thoughtfully designed, fully equipped retreat center and boutique wellness resort with a focus on sustainability. Every space and system exists in service of an extraordinary experience and connection to nature.
Set on 14 acres of restored tropical jungle in Costa Rica’s Southern Pacific, we offer retreat facilitators, wellness leaders, yoga trainers, and conscious travelers a seamlessly run, luxuriously grounded, and ecologically rooted haven — a place where the container is as intentional as the work that happens within it.

At Mandala Ojochal, our story is inseparable from the land itself. Nestled in the lush hills of Ojochal along Costa Rica’s southern Pacific coast, Mandala was born from a shared vision — and from a love story that unfolded later in life, when both founders were deeply clear about what they were building toward.
Lee is the visionary. A natural community leader, he is the designer, builder, and structural force behind Mandala — the masculine energy that sees possibility and brings it into physical form. His background in design and construction shaped every line of the property. The curves of the pathways, the orientation of the buildings, and the way each structure rests into the hillside rather than dominating it reflect intentional architecture that collaborates with the jungle rather than competing against it.
Dawn brings more than 25 years of experience in wellness, mental health, transformational retreats, and extensive world travel. Her work has guided leaders across cultures and continents, holding space for healing, empowering women in leadership, and designing environments where transformation is both safe and sustainable. Her foundation rests in healing, empowerment, and operational excellence — the rare integration of emotional depth and disciplined execution.
Where Lee sees structure and architectural design, Dawn tunes into the deeper rhythms and operational flow. Where he builds the physical container, she animates it with presence, hospitality, and intentional experience design. He shapes the landscape; she shapes the atmosphere within it. He constructs the framework; she ensures it breathes.
Their professional intersection — spanning business, regenerative design, wellness leadership, hospitality, and transformational work — became the living blueprint for Mandala. Each recognizes themselves as part of the greater whole. Structure and flow. Strategy and intuition. Earth and energy.
Together, they did not simply develop a property; they co-created an ecosystem that mirrors their partnership: balanced, intentional, and deeply alive.
