Guest room
This spacious room is situated on a beautiful spot of the property with views over the mandarin orchards and the mountains. It offers one queen-sized bed and a single bunk-style bed, perfect to accommodate a child or friend.

This room has its own bathroom with a spacious standing shower. Amenities include silky sheets, unlimited mountain spring water, internet, and usage of the common room, where you can watch movies or listen to music.
Yurt
A yurt is traditionally a dwelling that provides warm and practical housing for Mongolian tribes on the steppes of Central Asia. These tented structures can be build up or down within a few hours, which made them an excellent housing option for these migrating tribes.
At the Secret Garden, the yurts offer the ultimate countryside accommodation; living close to nature with all the comforts of a luxurious hotel room. Each yurt is entered through a solid pine door with windows which open out onto a small secluded terrace. You can enjoy the gardens in your private space.
Spacious in size, each yurt is four meters and 50 centimeters in diameter and furnished with a queen-sized bed with luxury cotton linen, bean bags, soft lighting accessories, and a woodstove. In the near future, each yurt will have an en-suite bathroom, which comes complete with overhead shower and flushing loo.

Instructors
Rose Tol
Rose has lived out of a suitcase for the last 25 years, not because she was homeless. She was on a journey around the world looking for home; home of the truth, the love and feeling of belonging, fulfillment, and connection that she knows was inside of her. Meditation has been and continues to be the daily, main, and chief ingredient of Rose’s journey into to the light and to come to a place where she is able to stay in the light. She has a doctor of philosophy degree in nutrition and is a licensed family mediator.
Ian Tolmay
Ian is Rose's life partner and co-founder of the Secret Garden Retreats. Ian is putting his heart and soul into this retreat and the school for meditation. His transformation led him down the path of deeply understanding the body and how the healing and transformational energy of God can be supported and invited in. Ian teaches and supports people through yoga and body awareness meditations to gain awareness of their body's and to invite and trust again God's mighty power to heal us, free us, and fill ourselves up.

The retreat will take place at Secret Garden Retreats, an 11-acre eco-resort located in Genalguacil, Spain. It is an absolutely remote, quiet, and unspoiled nature paradise in Andalusia.
