ABOUT OUR VENUE
Our venue was created to offer a space for connection, yoga, mindfulness and for you to come and host your retreats without having to worry about equipment, food and accommodation. The venue was built to offer a meaningful experience for guests to come and retreat away from their everyday life. We are not a luxury retreat but rather a homely venue with a character. Our venue was built following sustainability principles, sourcing our spring water from the mountains, getting our food from local farmers and partially using solar power.
OUR LOCATION
The venue is located in Buljarica, a small town on the Montenegrin coast, overlooking the mountains and the sea. We are on a steep hill about 15min walk from the second longest beach in all of Montenegro. The beach itself is a beautiful rocky beach and we have a beach yoga platform at the end of the bay to which we can organise a shuttle for your group. Although our venue is close to nature, we are not in a complete seclusion as we have neighbours around us. The high season (July/August) is normally the busiest time in our village, meaning there may be more noise and tourists. However, outside of those months it is usually very peaceful and calm. There are various walking trails nearby and we are located conveniently for doing different excursions to nearby places such as a boat tour from Buljarica beach (15min walk), lake Skadar (30min by car), Budva old town (40min by car) and Kotor (60min by car). There is a small shop, a couple of restaurants, cafes and a bus stop in our town. However, we are only 10min drive away from Petrovac, which is a gorgeous seaside town with many more restaurants and a coastal walk.
OUR PLANT BASED CUISINE
In the venure hires full catouring is included. Mahakala’s nutritious vegan food is wholesome, fresh and always homemade. At each buffet, we offer a number of dishes from freshly made pastries to salads made of homegrown vegetables to ensure there is always something for everyone. There are no complicated detox programs, just nutritious food created with love. To ensure a balanced vegan diet the menu is curated my Dr Vesna Lemm, a detox & nutrition specialist.
We offer 2 daily homemade vegan buffets. Our meal times are based on a powerful intermittent fasting philosophy (our favourite health tip!). This involves two highly nutritious meals per day (served at 10:00 and 17:00).
