Before she came, Anne researched her options for a retreat on line. She found this website and through these links, discovered where to stay. Then she booked her treatments....
Anne told me that she already knew she'd have a great experience - because she had read the client feedback written below!
So I said, "OK, let's add your comments to it". Here is what Anne wrote:

"When I arrived it was a cold winters day outside but it was warm and cosy inside and I felt welcomed.
The treatments were just what I needed....and more.
I arrived feeling stressed and exhausted. And I left feeling calm and renewed.
What I liked the most was: "Carol, her warmth, knowledge and care; the incredible surroundings and that she uses native NZ ingredients. If you are looking for an oasis of peace and calm to escape to, and need some TLC - well, here it is!"

Anne Bradley, mother & business lecturer, Tauranga

  This is just a small sampling of the feedback that Carol receives every month.
“My initial thought was that Lake Okareka was a long way from down town Rotorua. But it only took me about 10 minutes to get here. Even the drive out was enough to relax me.
The journey itself is part of the process of relaxing – leaving everything behind, then driving through native bush and finally having glimpses of the beautiful lakes. And then the treatment began…”
Kylie Brackfield, Rotorua

“I normally have a massage just to relieve aches and pains. Now I know its more about the whole of me (body and mind) and letting it all go. All the knots in my back were dealt with and now I wish I didn’t live so far away. But its so good that I don’t want to spread the word – I want to keep this secret place all to myself.”
Lynne Gillbanks, Auckland

“A wonderful experience in an idyllic setting. I will recommend you everywhere I go. Thank you so much, it was a pleasure to meet you.”
Jean Christie, Scotland

“I had a spa bath and Indian Head Massage. I arrived feeling anxious. Now I feel wonderfully relaxed and pampered. Hope to be back soon. Carol’s a magician!”
Lois, Hamilton
