This utterly unique and intensely spiritual retreat, close to the ancient royal retreat that is Machu Picchu in the ‘Valley of the Incas’, prides itself on introducing you to not just the sights, but also the spirit of the land and its native people. More than a client, you temporarily share their home with them, being one of the family in their ‘Garden Retreat’. Growing as the years and reputation progress, the centre is home to the wonderful ‘Seven Sacred Gardens’, each dedicated to a different chakra for meditative purposes. Yoga dominates a host of other activities, many Andes-based outdoor adventures and meditation/photography expeditions. Inspirational in the extreme.
