​

I have lived a very private lifestyle of self-discovery and inner cultivation for over twenty years. Now I am opening my home and space for this One of a Kind, rare gem of a retreat

​

Gift yourself the precious time and space to balance, restore and nourish your vast inner being

​

You will be welcomed into a home that is loved and cared for, eco-friendly, rustic yet very clean. It is simple and sincere and it has its wrinkles - like most of us, it is weathered by the elements :-)

​

The space is furnished with non-toxic, eco-friendly, organic furniture which provides a clean and healthy environment where you can be comfortable, relaxed, replenished, and blessed!

 

Therefore, it is a unique and different experience from a luxury hotel or a vacation condo

 

We are in the midst of a tropical lush environment. The accommodations are naturally in harmony with the surroundings, which means, we share with the geckos, the ants, bugs, birds, cats, mongoose, and all the other beings that call this magical place their home

​

It rains and things get wet. The main living areas are open-air to best enjoy the fresh breeze and forest bath provided by the trees. There is dust, it is humid, some things can get musty even with the utmost cleanliness and care

​

We are very detailed when it comes to cleanliness, and I do the cleaning myself. Therefore, you can be assured that the entire house is thoroughly cleaned consistently and kept very hygienic

​

There are night-singing frogs that provide a constant lullaby (good to mitigate the road noise of cars passing by)

​

We strive to live as much as we can in an environment that is free from pollution: be it sound, air, electromagnetic, food-related, etc. Therefore, we turn the WiFi and electricity off every night

​

We use only organic non-toxic supplies and toiletries. We eat and drink only organic non-GMO, fresh food

​

We rejoice that our guests embrace and look forward to coming here at ease and joyful that we embrace this simple and WELL-being lifestyle

 

The intention of the immersion is to flow with effortless ease within and without and in line with the rhythm of nature as it presents itself to us every day. Therefore, the schedules presented are a sample

​

Each morning as we see what wondrous surprises the dawn brings, we determine the full schedule of the day, always allowing space for change and new ideas to manifest

Extension of Stay

 

After the initial package, you are welcomed to extend your stay. Either continuing with scheduled retreat practices and activities or 

 

If you would prefer a more free flowing time and space to create your own schedule and personal meditations, with a more subtle support and less engagement with me. I can offer room with the daily meal, fresh fruit and water plus car. With no facilitation of activities, which leaves open day for your own design and creation.

 

If you have a loved one who is also on this path of self-cultivation and would like to immerse in the retreat as well, and you are fine with sharing bedroom and the queen bed, we can potentially accommodate for both to come together.
