Sarah Nour Coaching & Retreats
Let the desert and horses guide
A horse’s presence, a wide desert horizon and the quiet of a private valley shape the experience at Sarah Nour Coaching & Retreats. Here, coaching is guided by horses, nature and embodied presence, with an emphasis on reconnecting with inner wisdom and living more authentically. The setting makes room for both shared moments and solitude: guests can pause on a shaded terrace, gather by a cosy fireplace or sit around a Bedouin-style fire beneath the stars. A rock-carved pool looks out across the mountains and valleys, while the valley itself can host retreat activities and camping in nature. Meals draw on Bedouin-inspired cooking, with fresh local ingredients, rice dishes, seasonal salads and vegetarian choices. Rooms have air conditioning, and the camp also lists Wi-Fi and a restaurant. Retreats are paid, with prices starting at USD 669; ask Sarah about dates and what each retreat includes.
