One of my most favourite places anywhere! A truly wonderful place to reconnect with yourself!

In a country with yoga retreats lining two coasts, it takes something special to stand out. Peace Retreat has that something extra. It's in the calm days sitting by the pool, the late-into-the-night talks that come naturally to guests, and the authenticity of the owners.
If you're looking for a place to slow down, live simply, and recharge fully, this is the place to visit.
Oh yeah, on a very practical note, it's very convenient to get to from Liberia Airport.
Lots of other retreats are 4+ hours away from an airport and/or require charter planes or boats. Peace Retreat is an easy hour-ish drive which is nice after a long day of flying.
