Happy Buddha Retreats

Wonderful weekend Yoga retreat at the Blue Mountains. First time experience for a beginner yogi! Beautiful bushland, grounded location, casual feel, caring and skilled volunteer staff. First time for mediation, yoga and also drumming!!! Very nurturing environment and one I would highly recommend for those considering a retreat. Easy drive or train ride from Sydney. Thanks Happy Buddha.

I did a 2 night weekend retreat with my partner. Couldn’t speak highly enough of the staff (volunteers!) and their efforts. Our retreat was led by Francesco who is a real asset to the retreat. Amazing food, good program and a very relaxing vibe!

This retreat was awesome! The team here are super accommodating and were extremely nice! They make everything about you. From the early check in, to any dietary requirements - they are always making sure they are doing everything to make you enjoy your stay.I am not a vegan, but the food was amazing! And our whole group thought it. I did the 2 night inner joy stay - and they offered lots of different styles of mediation and yoga.My group was amazing! One of the girls actually stayed on for another 2 days and said her group was a lot more reclusive then ours- but I guess that’s up to you.The volunteers are incredible, really kind and nurturing. Our facilitator Francesco was very special! He made everyone in our group feel valued, supported and relaxed. He shared with us some of the things his learnt from his experiences, but mostly guided us to find answers in ourselves.The blue mountains was such a beautiful place to be situated. Our rooms were clean, spacious and warm! There is also a pool for summer time. I recommend asking to be on the bottom floor so you can walk straight out to the garden. Lots of places to explore and waterfalls to find!Hammock look out is a pretty special spot too.

Received the Inner Joy retreat experience from my workplace as a gift as they knew I loved my yoga. Wasn't too sure what to expect and was overjoyed with everything!! Yoga classes, food, venue, pool, fireplace, djembe drumming, beautiful walking tracks, did so much in 48hrs. Fabulous facilitators and the bonus of meeting some lovely like minded people. A very happy buddha I was!!

I visited silent retreat last weekend and it was the best ever! Very peaceful and friendly environment, beautiful nature around, cozy warm house, tasty meal, space full of love and amazing people, very caring and wisdom facilitator John. People who creates this space love what they do and you can feel this. I highly recommend this place and I want to come back there.

Incredible experiences (silent and inner joy retreats) with amazing facilitators. Also the food is savoury and nature around is really resourcing (never saw such sunrises). Perfect place to relax, take a breath and refocus on what really matters. I recommamd 100%, you won't regret it !

Such a relaxing experience. Yoga, meditation & drumming which I didn't think I would enjoy but it was fab. The food was divine and great staff. The location is peaceful with great views and the rooms are lovely and cosy. There are a few surprises as well like a room behind a book case and messages on the stairs and tiles.

A little haven of zen and joy hidden away in the mountains right on the edge of a postcard-perfect view. If you get a chance to go on a yoga retreat here, don't hesitate; you'll be welcomed like a member of the family and your only complaint will be that you just want to spend one more day here. Oh, and the food is amazing - fresh and healthy and full of herbs from the garden right outside the kitchen window.

Highly recommend! I booked the 2 night mid-week stay and it honestly felt like I was away for a week. The minute I stepped through the doors I felt instantly relaxed. The food was also incredible. If you are on the edge, book it now. You won't regret it.
