The Gardens of the Goddess Retreat in Ephesus
The Gardens of the Goddess Retreat offers a profound journey into the very sources of the Divine Feminine and her many expressions. Our gathering weaves together exploration of ancient temple complexes—power places that still radiate presence—with quiet time for contemplation in a landscape long blessed by the Feminine, first in her chthonic forms and later in the countless manifestations that followed.
Travel is simple: after arriving in Izmir, you may rent a car, arrange a taxi, or book a transfer—we are happy to assist with the details. From there, your journey leads to our sanctuary, the Ephesus Retreat Hotel. Perched above the ancient city, it looks out toward the Mediterranean Sea and rests on a height where one can almost feel the presence of Mother Mary’s house below.
The food at the retreat is authentic Turkish cuisine—organic, nourishing, and lovingly prepared. Our program is rich and engaging, yet never overfilled. The rhythm leaves space for stillness and reflection, so that no stress or tension arises. Everything flows in alignment with the guidance of the Divine Feminine.
We warmly invite you to join us for this year’s retreat—or in the years to come, as our intention is to make this an annual gathering. Please reach out with any questions—we will be delighted to hear from you.
