This is what our Temple Retreat travelers had to say...
This trip exceeded all my expectations! The best part about it was that all I did was pack my passport and clothes, check my flights, and head off into the unknown. It was so wonderful not to have to think about logistics and plans but just turn up each day for a day full of surprises. Every detail was taken care of and the work and thought that went into the trip was phenomenal - from a daily thoughtful gift to the experiences and food each day. I would not hesitate to make it an annual trip. It was food for my mind, body and soul and couldn't have come at a better time for me personally. Well done to two extremely capable and special women who make an incredible team! -- Angela 
Truly a trip of a lifetime, only I want to do this every year😂. I came home refreshed and invigorated. Every woman who is “doing it all” will benefit from taking this time to recharge your body and refocus your mind on your goals and what is important to you. -- Tanya
I loved loved loved everything about this trip and would recommend every woman that can, to go!! Will send a video when I'm dressed in my "power colour" with my glass of Cava!!! -- Kitty
