Sun Art Center
Move gently, reconnect with yourself

Tropical greenery and the nearby sea give the setting an easy, unhurried feel, while light plant-based meals made with fresh local ingredients add to the restorative rhythm. The center’s outlook centers on reconnecting with the self and finding balance through mindful practice and time in nature. Rooms have air-conditioning, and practical comforts include Wi-Fi, towels, coffee and tea, and free parking. Retreat pricing starts at USD 468. Sun Art Center may suit travelers who want a small-scale, nature-oriented stay with room for movement and reflection; check with the host for the schedule and details of a particular retreat.
