Off Grid Wellness Retreats in Ghana
Slow down, reconnect with nature
Here, the reset begins with a change of pace: an off-grid permaculture farm, green outdoor spaces and room to step back from the usual noise. The retreat’s focus is on rest, clarity and reconnecting with nature rather than a tightly prescribed itinerary. Guests can stay in a private one-bedroom house or a tent, with gardens, animals, walking paths and quiet places to spend time outdoors. Meals are fresh Ghanaian cooking made with seasonal farm ingredients and served at an unhurried pace; vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free and nut-free needs can be accommodated. The center lists Sena among its guides, though activities and daily structure may vary by retreat. It’s a thoughtful fit for travelers who want a simpler stay with space to reflect, sleep well and recharge. Retreat pricing starts at USD 600, and travel from Accra can be arranged by bus or private car.
