Here is what people say about Mana and their experiences:  
Louise Chasteau, a long-time visitor to Mana says: "being at Mana is like taking a deep breath, and feeling the melting sense of relaxation that comes from slow releasing exhale. Every time I've visited Mana I've experienced a peace and stillness that's been wonderfully restorative for my sprit"
I spent a few days at Mana retreat to attend the Yoga retreat. I wanted to thank you very much for a most wonderful visit. Mana retreat is a real dream come true. I have just got my photos back and it has just reminded me of how divine everything was. Specially loved the Meditation Platform and the hammock. Also wonderful food, and very pleasant Wwoofers. I know that all of this does not just 'happen'. Your organisation behind the scenes makes a beautiful place in a wonderful location really special. I will be back again sometime. Soon, I hope.

Thank you to you and all the staff at Mana for making our stay so special. Your hospitality, friendliness and willingness to go the extra mile added to the very special energy of the retreat and was so much appreciated. And what a beautiful, special place. Thank you for allowing us to share your space; it was indeed a privilege.

I would just like to say Thank You for an amazing ‘Relaxation’ weekend. I had a memorable time at Mana retreat.
I very much loved the nutritious food. The meals were delicious and I enjoyed thecompany! Thanks for your warm welcome on Friday. I am grateful that you went that extra mile to ensure my room was perfect for me. Many Thanks for making sure I had a wonderful stay and creating a family feel within the group.
I will definitely spread good news around and will be back again very soon.

Thank you for your kindness and such a deeply peaceful and 'allowing' stay with you.
Both Linda and I were incredibly tired and you all provided just the right presence and environment for us to catch our breaths. So, many, greatly sincere thank-you's.

For me staying at Mana is soul reviving. It’s not just being on the mountain with its wonderful energy, walking all the bush trails or soaking up the peace of the Sanctuary. It’s also in the warmth of the Mana staff who make you feel so welcome, and oh the glorious food! Beautiful, fresh, nourishing and delicious meals that always inspire me to go home and make colourful fragrant salads!
