A place to relax, reset and refocus.

Reconnect with nature & your well-being in the Bay of Plenty

Situated in the beautiful Bay of Plenty, New Zealand

Our eco-glamping accommodation

Where simplicity meets serenity

Tucked between native bush and tropical greenery, our off-grid retreat invites you to unwind in a space that honours nature and stillness.

Stay in a spacious bell tent or Pip, our lovingly restored Bedford bus, each offering a different way to connect with the land.

With solar power, an outdoor bath under the stars, and slow mornings on a yoga deck, everything here is designed to help you let go of the noise and reconnect.

Private and open to nature. Here, time slows down, and you’re invited to do the same.

Natural therapies & massages

Reconnect with your body’s natural rhythm through naturopathy, personalised massage, reflexology, and gentle nutrition support, all available on-site at Passaddhi Eco Retreat.

Whether you're staying with us or visiting for the day, each session takes place in a calming, tropical garden setting, with warm herbal tea and thoughtful, individualised care.

Explore holistic practices designed to support body balance, including one-on-one naturopathic consultations, targeted massage therapy, and functional testing. If the weather isn’t suited for outdoor sessions, our quiet indoor space provides a peaceful alternative.

Nature-based experiences to help you unplug

Passaddhi invites you to settle into a gentler pace, with moments for stillness, quiet reflection, and simple pleasures.

Start your day with yoga or meditation on the forest deck, take a bush walk through nearby trails, or unwind in the outdoor bath under the stars. Whether you're resting by the fire or listening to the sounds of nature, everything here invites you to disconnect from screens and daily distractions, offering space to reconnect with the land and yourself.

Born from a journey of exploration and a passion for peaceful living, Passaddhi is the vision of a mindful traveller who transformed a slice of Bay of Plenty wilderness into a dedicated space for deep rest and reconnection.

  • “Lisa's Retreat is something truly special, and we loved every part of it. It was warm enough to sleep in the yurt our whole stay, and found all of the amenities clean, accessible and met our needs and expectations. We loved the peaceful surroundings, the tropical plants, Pip the bus, and the tiki torches. A real highlight for us was the outdoor tub, which we each utilized both morning and night. The beds were exceptionally comfortable, and it was a treat to find avos, eggs, fresh bread, fruits and more in the kitchen. An absolute delight!”

  • “Lisa is a gem and her place is amazing. We had the best stay so far in this little iddyl. It was clean and modern and had everything we needed... even to the point where we wished we'd brought insect repellant and then we found some. Nice touches like the fact that Lisa left fresh bread and eggs, even a treat for our dog... (yes, dogs are welcome). Thankyou Lisa. We'll definitely be back x”

  • “Lisa has put so much thought and care into this retreat, there were so many little touches that added to the appeal and enjoyment of the stay. We had beautiful clear sky’s and the view from the outdoor bath to watch the stars was unreal. We opted to sleep in the tent for our 1 night stay and the bed was so cozy and warm! Definitely felt the chill in the morning but we hopped into Pip (the coolest van ever) and its heater warmed the space in no time! Could not recommend more to anyone who wants to escape the hustle and bustle of city life, it’s the perfect place to unwind and reset - massive bonus points as it was dog friendly and our little pup loved exploring the gardens.”
