Embrace the magic of Sensoria’s golden mud and transform your health and wellness regimen with this ancient, volcanic gift.
Within the lush, thriving ecosystems of the Costa Rican rainforest at Sensoria, there exists a remarkable natural phenomenon that draws visitors from around the world—golden mud, sourced directly from the rich volcanic earth that defines this spectacular region.
This extraordinary substance is not only unique to our locale but also carries a profound legacy of the area’s volcanic activity, making it a key feature of Sensoria’s natural landscape.
The Origins and Secrets of Golden Mud
Our golden mud is formed through complex geological processes where volcanic minerals are naturally refined and mixed with organic compounds in the earth, creating a substance rich in healing properties.
This mud, tinted with a natural golden hue, is a direct beneficiary of the nutrient-rich soils that make the region a hotspot for biodiversity.
Profound Benefits of Golden Mud
Enriched with minerals like:
- Sulfur,
- Zinc,
- and magnesium, golden mud offers extensive health and skincare benefits.
It detoxifies the skin by drawing out impurities and toxins, leaving behind a refreshed and clean feeling. The high sulfur content provides natural antibacterial properties, helping to alleviate skin conditions such as acne and eczema.
Zinc accelerates the renewal of skin cells, which is essential for maintaining a youthful and vibrant appearance. Furthermore, the soothing properties of the mud help relax and alleviate sore muscles and joints, making it an ideal treatment after physical activities in the tropical rainforest.
Golden Mud for Holistic Well-being
Regular use of golden mud treatments can contribute to improved skin health, reduced stress levels, and enhanced physical wellness. It has become a cornerstone of our spa’s offerings, beloved by guests for both its effectiveness and its grounding connection to the earth.

Our Recognitions
LEW2024-05-06WOW. A gem of an experience This was an absolute highlight of our visit. We did the luxury plus tour and spent the day walking through a rainforest seeing a variety of animals like toucans, snakes, sloths, monkeys, etc. It was spectacular! Our guides Pedro & Issac were wonderful and very knowledgeable. The waterfalls did not disappoint. Thermal pool swimming was my favorite. We had a lovely lunch by one of the pools. We didn't get to do the lookout tower due to cloud cover, but saw so much else. We were picked up in Tamarindo and one thing I will say is to plan for a 12 hour day if you do this. 6 hours of driving, minimum depending on where you are. We were partially prepared for this, but thought it would be closer to 2 hours. I would suggest saying in Liberia and doing this tour from there to cut down on transit time and fully enjoy the pools and experience more. We might have stayed a little longer if we weren't facing a 3 hour drive home! But, all in all we are SO happy we did this and if we come back to Costa Rica we will absolutely stay in the rain forest more and explore there more as it was by far the highlight.Lindsay2024-04-30Beautiful place! Our guide, Isaac, was awesome! So knowledgable and friendly! The variety of flora was amazing, but we didn't get to see as much wildlife as I had hoped. We did see one beautiful tropical bird, 2 small snakes, a basilisk, and some leaf-cutter ants carrying leaves. No monkeys or sloths. When you arrive, they have changing rooms, and they tell you to change into your swimsuit and wear clothes on top. Then they offered like 3 or 4 different opportunities to swim, during the hike. I wish I had not worn tight athletic pants. They were such a pain to keep taking off and putting on in a super humid environment. Bring your most comfortable swimsuit, a towel, water shoes, sunscreen and bug spray. Wear loose-fitting and lightweight pants, and comfortable hiking or walking shoes. It's tempting to just wear quick-dry shorts, but the bugs will eat you alive, so wear pants. Since it's a rainforest, I debated getting waterproof hiking shoes, but ended up just wearing my Nike's, and it was totally fine. I think it always rains in the afternoon, so they just do tours in the morning, and then it will rain on your drive back.Marlon U2024-04-27Such a great experience! Me and my girlfriend had an amazing experience! It was truly amazing having both Isaac and Johnny accompany and share this experience with us! They were wonderful and have great personalities.catwalsh972024-04-27Great hike through the rainforest! Joaquin, our guide was amazing! He explained all about the eco system and animals of the rainforest. We swam in some waterfalls and beautiful thermal pools! The food and drinks were really good and the rainforest was beautiful! We saw 2 beautiful eyelash vipers!Danielle B2024-04-21Rainforest hike and volcanic pool swims This place is beautiful. We saw tonnes of wildlife and the guides are incredible at picking it out. The pools are beautiful too. We also love the eco credentials and ethics of the place!Jana Elsa Muriel2024-04-20A mini paradise on Mother Earth For me personally, since I love the rainforest and the waterfalls, the absolute highlight of our trip. It costs a little to get there but it is worth it more than a thousand times over. The pristine forest filled with streams and carefully maintained pools is a true wonder. Our guide Eri was perfect and very empathetic. Thank you very much for spoiling us!emike162024-03-28Adventure after an adventure We drove rather than taking the shuttle and that added some extra adventure. The roads are largely dirt and rocks for much of the way and you will think you are lost, but it is worth it. The waterfalls and pools are amazing. The hike is not for those not in shape, but the rainforest is incredible and you get a view of the volcano from a platform above the canopy. The chicken and rice meal was also surprisingly good and make sure you try their coffee.PJ A2024-03-19Sensoria Rainforest is a beautiful protected area of Costa Rica We had a very good time at Sensoria. The rainforest, waterfalls and scenery were beautiful. Our guide was a bit quiet but helpful and accommodating. We saw two waterfalls and were able to walk in them. The volcanic soils create the most clear and blue water we have ever seen. There were two plunge pools we were allowed to go in, as well as one thermal pool. Unfortunately the only wildlife we saw were some exotic birds and snakes (poisonous!). The property is in a type of land trust so it will not be disturbed with development, and they have motion cameras showing the wildlife within the park. The one downside is the ride to and from - horrible roads, very rough ride.
