The Recovery PodA solo rest & recovery retreat near Wellington

Feeling overwhelmed and burnt out? Need to unplug and get away from responsibility and obligation?

Life can entrap us in a cycle of constant "doing". The Recovery Pod has been intentionally created to offer its guests the ultimate opportunity for solitude in nature, giving you a reprieve from “busyness” and the overwhelm of everyday life.

The Pod is a simple one room building set amidst the native NZ bush in rural Kāpiti. Your stay with us is a fully catered experience offering you the ability to truly rest. A stream runs nearby, so the only soundtrack to your stay is moving water and birdsong. There is a private bath on the deck to soak in, blackout blinds to support sleep anytime of the day, and a private courtyard with a hammock for those wanting rest outdoors or star gaze. There is no Wi-Fi and no television, so a digital detox here isn't something you have to force — it just happens.

Sometimes we just need stillness. The Pod is a soft place to retreat — warm, dark, private, and completely removed from the noise.
