“Deeply nourishing on all levels. Silent wandering in the exquisite, wild mountains - lush with green leucadendrons, forested nooks, lily ponds and ancient, lichen-bearded milkwood trees.”

- Anna Kent

We offer facilitated and self-guided retreats that nourish the body and mind,  while helping us to remember that we are a connected part of the ecology of our land.  

Allow yourself to rest and reconnect with Nature, yourself and others while enjoying our core offering of meditation, yoga, swimming and walks on our mountain and forest trails.

  • Bodhi Khaya Main Space

    Bodhi Khaya is a sanctuary for retreat and renewal, nestled within the biodiverse landscape of the Walker Bay Conservancy. Here, guests reconnect with nature, spirit and community through meditation, personalised retreats, and facilitated experiences. The retreat offers nourishing vegetarian meals, peaceful accommodation and spaces designed for reflection, rest and transformation. With mountain dams, over 30 km of trails and quiet places to gather or be alone, Bodhi Khaya invites a deep sense of homecoming.

    Nestled in a remote corner of Bodhi Khaya, with views of the forest and teaming with wild-life, the Wild Pod is the perfect location for hosting a smaller retreat, workshop or group getaway with friends.
