Guest Experiences
“When my mother came back from Misty looking the healthiest she had in years, I knew I had to do the program too. The program at Misty Mountain is most inspiring and uplifting! Thank you for giving me the tools to improve my health and the general health of my family. The food, lectures, exercise, massage – everything was just what I needed.”
“My stay at Misty Mountain has been a fantastic week. I loved the exercise sessions, the steam baths, and the breakfasts! I particularly found the advice about dietary choices and habits most useful. I shall certainly recommend the program to family and friends, and yes…I would do the program again!”
“Thank you to all the Misty Mountain staff! It's been the ultimate privilege to be pampered and empowered by your caring and competent team. What an opportunity to be in the 'wilderness' with people who love to share their beautiful home. Sadly we can't take your wonderful staff home with us! Our stay was absolute value for money. Thank you all once again!”
“Thank you all for the awesome time I had at Misty Mountain; I will cherish it always. I have lost about 4kg since being at Misty. I was so happy and since then I have lost another 1kg and another 2.5cms all over. So I am still losing weight and am feeling great. I am so happy – thank you so much for everything!”
“A week at Misty Mountain was exactly what I needed. I was feeling energetically depleted, constantly tired, unproductive, bloated and unhealthy. Frankly my age was rapidly progressing way more than my years. My life feels rejuvenated and refreshed after the week of nature, nurture, delicious meals, and attentiveness from the staff. I re-engaged with my inner driving force, my body feels so grateful, healthier and less bloated and I have learnt a few things about myself. I can now rejig many aspects of my life that were holding me back, especially in regards to healthy eating. The level of knowledge that I gained was exemplary and very applicable to my own life, and the fellowship both of staff and other attendees was very uplifting. Did I tell you the food was AMAZING!!!!”
“We spent a week here on a lifestyle-change retreat. It was a fantastic experience—one you'll definitely remember. The retreat focused on healthy food and improved eating habits. If you have any health challenges, you'll receive plenty of support, guidance, and a tailored diet to help your healing, whatever your situation may be. A variety of treatments were offered—some included in the packages—and if you enjoy them, it's easy to book additional sessions, which are very reasonably priced in my opinion. The food (vegetarian) and accommodation were excellent. Our group had around 17 people, and it was a great team to share the experience with—working on ourselves, having meaningful discussions, and forming friendships. The treatment rooms and facilities were clean and professional, and they keep building new ones as more people recognize the importance of food in everyday well-being and health. It may go without saying, but the staff are incredibly kind, highly professional, and very supportive—no matter what challenges you're dealing with.”
