Experiences at Passaddhi Eco Retreat

Disconnect to reconnect, with yourself, the earth, and what truly matters.

Nestled deep in the forested hills of the Bay of Plenty, Passaddhi Eco Retreat offers more than a place to sleep; it provides a space to slow down, listen, and be. Whether you’re here for stillness, healing, or nature immersion, each experience is unique and designed to restore your balance gently.

Peaceful moments for one, shared rituals for two, or memories made together.

    • Let nature lead the way: Every moment here invites you to slow down and listen inward.

    • Gentle nature walks & forest bathing: Follow native bush tracks at your own rhythm.

    • Birdwatching: Tune into the song of tui, kererū and other native birds.

    • Sunset outdoor bath ritual: Soak under the open sky, warmed by water and silence.

    • Quiet reading nooks & hammock time: Find stillness among the trees.

    • Self-led bush meditation spots: No need for apps, just breath and birdsong.

    Let the simple presence of nature recalibrate your nervous system.

  • Restoration starts when you stop doing and start receiving.
