About
Samadhi is a small, rural retreat centre near Otaki, in New Zealand’s lower North Island.
This 3.5-hectare property in the foothills of the Tararua Ranges is a place of magic with a beautiful sense of peace and serenity.
It features a warm and comfortable house, organic veggie gardens, a bountiful orchard, a serene lotus pond, a magical yurt, and hills with walking paths winding through tall trees.
Samadhi is a Sanskrit word which means ‘transcendence’ or ‘joining together as one’.
