Paraíso Pickleball
The ultimate retreat for pickleball lovers
About
paraíso
Paraiso Pickleball was born in the lush jungles of Nosara, Costa Rica, where our love affair with the game first ignited. At Paraiso Pickleball we live and breathe the Pura Vida lifestyle! We're captivated by the breathtaking natural beauty around us, fueled by a passion for adventure and travel, and devoted to connecting with people from across the globe while curating unforgettable, wonder-filled experiences. As dedicated pickle-heads with nearly a decade of retreat expertise, creating Paraiso Pickleball was a natural—and exhilarating—evolution.
WELCOME TO
NOSARA,
COSTA RICA
Located in the heart of Costa Rica's Blue Zone, where the jungle meets the ocean, lies our little slice of paraíso (paradise) – Nosara.
Renowned for its ecotourism, consistent surf break, unique wildlife, world class yoga, fishing and pristine beaches protected by the Optional Wildlife Refuge, Nosara is one of the few places where you can witness the raw beauty of a jungle lined beach free of hotels or other structures obstructing the natural beauty.
Nosara is a paradise for surfers, nature lovers, athletes, yogis and beach bums alike. We are blessed beyond belief to call this our home and look forward to sharing the magic with you.

Meet Kelli, Founder of Soul Song & Paraiso
Kelli is passionate about creating events that bring people together to celebrate and explore their shared interests. She feels honored to help facilitate moments of connection and finds deep fulfillment in witnessing others light up, experiencing life to the fullest.
At the age of 21, Kelli produced her first concert in Austin, TX. Over the next 12 years, she hosted weekly club events and concerts.
