Allow us to lead you back to yourself in seclusion, away from the city. The ambiance and attributes of our location, services, and food will truly refresh you from within.
On the 5 day retreat, you’ll be eased in with a massage for tired muscles with the energizing hands of our traditionally trained Ayurveda masseuse. Each day, our purpose designed yoga sessions for the inexperienced through to advanced yogis will open your lungs and rejuvenate your circulatory system, and pulse much-needed oxygen to your cells to restore your vital energy.
