Can we just start with the spa treatments? Pure bliss! so relaxing & inexpensive - a real treat! and the scenery? Straight out of a fairy tale. So lush & green! And stairs like reel but they have or feel like a chore - more so an adventure! Now I'm not a vegan / vegetarian/raw person normally - I love hot apple pie with ice cream, meat / fish! - but the food was so good! Especially the chocolate balls, miso soup! That's right! you even get chocolate! The talks were so informative and Mark is so helpful& down to earth - he really makes you appreciates life! Lastly, our rooms were beautiful& spacious - each with its own “Quirk“. What more can I say? Overall blissful for experience surrounded by wonderful women (and Mark).

The retreat was a good experiences. A great time to reflect on your inner self and reflect your mind and body. The accommodation were nice, the property and people were beautiful, helpful and very peaceful space with the exception of the spa area. Spa treatments were wonderful but the on going construction adjacent to the facility moved the peacefulness of the treatments. Overall, Mark and Anna were wonderful and informative, their love from what they do was shared by all.

The most amazing experience! We detoxed the body & the mind with delicious food & relaxation in the lush green jungle of Ubud. Thank you to the kind, friendly staff who always greeted us with beautiful wide smiles! I felt like a princess on this retreat & was highly impressed by the cleanliness attention to detail - that a ‘little extra touch” of a frangipani here & the lighting of our outside porch lamp ( Just to name a couple). The spa treatments were absolutely beautiful; I've never felt such magical hands. So relaxing & nourishing for the soul! Also the pavilion was a gorgeous place to breathe & do yoga surrounded by trees. I thoroughly enjoyed the movement & energy work from Qi Gong. This was the first time I had been introduced. Very interesting! and Lastly..Mark, what an amazing, warm, beautiful man with so much knowledge. Thank you for supporting us through this retreat & for sharing your light & wisdom. You made detoxing a dream. I loved, loved, loved this retreat1 Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I'm forever grateful.

"Fresh Start Cleansing Retreat" exceeded my expectations. A beautiful location, you feel as though you are so far from the bustle of Ubud. You are surrounded by the sights & sounds of nature. The Qi Gong + Gentle yoga are ideal whilst detoxing it has been interesting, I hope to use the tools discussed. I appreciate the range or view + perspectives. The spa treatments were totally indulgent. The massages were fantastic the staff/ team were so obliging. The entire service team are very sweet and super efficient. It was great to experience the cleansing ceremony. Now never been involved in anything like that in my everyday life. It is so nice that people from all backgrounds are invited & included in this religious ceremony. I enjoyed the freedom of choosing to be involved in activities or choosing not to. It has been a wonderful experience. The location, the accommodation, service, treatments activities yoga, meditation, Qi Gong have all been better than I could have ever imagined. All of the people involved have been simply wonderful.

Once more, a great experience with Marc leading this retreat. He is just the right and perfect person to host a Detox Cleansing Retreat offering row vegan food. This experience in this domain is just unique and outstanding! A little disappointing to find outside the noise level due to construction next door - which does not match with this beautiful place. Thanks for another great retreat in this little Balinese Paradise.

A great alternative to "schoolies" for my daughter. Personally I needed the debrief after a big year. It really is a fresh start and perfect preparation for 2011

If you are looking for a non invasive, yet very effective cleanse retreat. Kumara Sakti is the place to do it! The retreat center is an absolute "jewel in the jungle"! Everywhere you look you are treated to lush greenery, flowers and peaceful fountains. My time at Kumara Sakti was a joyful journey within - a great way to detox with other like minded people who understand the value of a cleansing program. Mark Ament is a top match professional who made my retreat one of the most memorable I've ever done. His experience and wisdom gave me the encouragement and inspiration to do things & would normally not try his wife Gabrielle was wonderful too - I loved it all!
Susan, USA
Whilst sort of prepared for the herbal detox & radical change in diet, I was pleasantly surprised at the holistic approach to general well being and a nurturing environment in which to explore spiritual & esoteric ideas. Well out of the realm of your typical “Aussie bloke”. Not only do I feel much better physically & mentally, this retreat has helped me to break some addictions, which I could not at home. Thank you Mark, Gabrielle & the team for making me aware of a whole new approach possible for life.

In a word: Wow!! Life changing and LIVE LIFE Inspiring!
Jeneane Whiteside, Canada
The retreat itself was an overall great experience! A deep dive for myself in an unknown world to me –spiritual + energizing! Mark & Gabrielle made this retreat so special with their kind attention and ability to integrate people with different backgrounds and mindsets. Thanks for this great program - set in a perfect environment and hidden between rice fields - a beautiful and peaceful place where you can just BE!
