1-week in Cape Town – RY Marketplace

Connect to your core and find your purpose as you relax and recharge on a rejuvenating 1-week Retreat. In this dreamy farmhouse getaway in Standford Valley outside of Cape Town, you’ll get clarity on your priorities and identify key areas of your life where you can find growth. Our Retreats include a facilitator, accommodations, healthy chef-prepared meals and a well-balanced blend of wellness activities, workshops, and local experiences. We’ll take care of all the details so you can relax.

You will be staying in a cottage house which sleeps 1-4 people. Pricing is based on the STANDARD SHARED package which includes a private bed in a shared bedroom with 1 other person. You will have the option to upgrade to a STANDARD PRIVATE. If you are sharing an accommodation, you can specify a roommate or let us match you with someone. Room options are subject to availability at time of room selection.

A must do!By far one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. The location, the people, and the activities were all perfectly planned out. It was the perfect mix of fun and personal growth. I would highly recommend this retreat with Remote Year to anyone!Nina C., 1-week Retreat in Cape Town
