Hide away from the world and reconnect with yourself when you stay at Sramana, a Self-Healing Retreat Center found in Fairyland House. This haven is tucked away in a peaceful rainforest location in Kuranda, a mountain village that’s 38 minutes by car from the city of Cairns.
Here, you’ll be following a daily program that begins with soothing 7:30am yoga and meditation. After which, guests can savor the fresh tropical fruits and smoothies over a late breakfast, to be followed by more meditation throughout the day.
Dinner is one of the highlights here as you can pick your own salad leaves from the garden and partake in a vegan dinner buffet. Then you can have fun singing and making music with the available instruments along with the other guests and later, peacefully retire for the night in your room facing luscious gardens.
