What an amazing slice of paradise! A girlfriend and I both just needed a break and a place to rest and rejuvenate and oh did we find it! Paru completely took care of us all morning, as busy Mamas of little ones, it felt so wonderful to be so looked after ourselves. The essential massage was just perfection! I would highly recommend Paru and her retreat to anyone; and take the ferry over as it feels like a real day away :) Thank you Paru 🥰
I just did a 3 day emotional wellbeing retreat, it was amazing. It felt like a home away from home, the weekend was full of treatments and meditation and soul searching journey which I will take into the future with me. Would recommend Shunyata to everyone.
Wow! I have done the 3day emotional wellness program and it was amazing. Paru is a wonderful person and teacher and the jouneys I have completed combined with the various therapies have changed my life! I am eternally grateful to have have done this retreat.
My wife found this hidden paradise in Diamond Harbour by accident. She was looking for an accommodation wherein we can spend the weekend prior to her leaving NZ for a new adventure in her career. This probably was not an accident but meant to be. We have met lovely Paru who proved to be an exceptional host and made us feel very welcomed. The day started with a cup of tea and a chat which made us feel at home. Then went on with the spa over looking the harbor, to relax and disconnect. The lunch was superb and the massages are exceptional. The treatment experience was different and we highly recommend this to couples.
Just returned from the 3 day emotional wellness retreat. Had a wonderful time, with lovely company and amazing food! The weekend was jam packed with treatments and therapies to help with my emotional wellness. From the Journey and ozone sauna, to a massage and hydro bath, as well as a lovely walk, yoga as well as time to lounge on the deck in the sun. Paru went out of her way to make us feel welcome and comfortable. When I struggled with the second journey, Paru changed things up and I feel like I have made the discovery I was hoping for! Thanks again for a wonderful weekend!!
I don't know if i could put into words how much this retreat changed my life, my way of thinking, my approach to life.
Paru is the most inviting warm amazing person i have ever met with a real true soul felt intent to help.
The room is lovely i loved opening the curtains in the morning and just watching the beautiful ocean. Or doing yoga on the deck. Beautiful views from everywhere.
I have never done anything like this before but i was soooo comfortable.
The food is beyond amazing, each dish made with love! Words can't fully describe my experience and I am sending my whole family along individually as everyone can benefit in someway shape or form.
ALL I CAN SAY IS AMAZING LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE
I had the most special day here, peaceful idyllic surroundings, beautiful food and Paru is so knowledgeable and skilled in what she does. She is so caring and understanding and provides the most relaxing experience. I highly recommend a day (or a few) with her
Shunyata is the perfect place to have a rest and feel better. Paru is an amazing host who will help you to be the best version of yourself.
I had the opportunity to stay to help her get the place cleaned and garden cleared but I loved the energy of shunyata. I found peace, positive energy, absolutely amazing and healthy food, and we had lots of fun and healing and I find Paru a person with great integrity.
So thank you Paru for those unforgettable moments, I m sure I will have a little part of you in my future life.

We had such a beautiful healing time and we'll deserved rest as a couple. Food was amazing and my hubby really enjoyed the whole experience too. We felt truly pampered and i would totally recommend the retreat to anyone wanting to grow/heal themselves or their relationship with others. We will definitely be back. Thank you.
I needed a long awaited restful and healing time-out from being a workaholic &ventured to a hideaway surprise and the beautiful Paru!! I was in need of some Emotional &Physical body detoxification and i was given that in more ways than one-i experienced Nurturing on a Soul level and Spiritually! I was most impressed with the first time experience of having a "Journey"-this released some childhood blocks of pain &abuse! Paru made me feel Safe to relax,open up &face my fears with love&support from her kind Heart!! The food was amazing, pure organic and healthy,and the creative presentation ,devine!!-I felt blessed and healed in the presence of the retreat and did not want to leave this healing,nurturing,loving environment-thankyou PARU, you will always be special to me, in guiding and helping me understand my Souls purpose and journey in this lifetime and how to create Balance in my life-Love &Light-AMANDA
