Carmel Coastal Retreat

Carmel Coastal Retreat offers a unique and spiritually enriching experience, tucked away in a peaceful, forested valley just moments from the famous Victoria Bay. As a Christian retreat centre, it is dedicated to providing a tranquil space for rest, reflection, and rejuvenation. It’s an ideal destination for those looking to disconnect from the noise of daily life and reconnect with their faith and with nature in a serene, supportive environment.

For visitors who wish to camp, the retreat provides a selection of beautiful campsites set within a sheltered glen. These grassed sites, shaded by a canopy of mature trees, offer a genuine sense of peace and seclusion. Each stand is equipped with an electrical point, and the clean, well-maintained ablution facilities ensure a comfortable stay. For those who prefer, a range of comfortable, self-catering accommodation options are also available.

The atmosphere at Carmel is one of quiet contemplation and natural beauty. You can spend your days exploring the walking trails on the property, enjoying the abundant birdlife, or taking the short drive to the iconic beach at Victoria Bay. It is a place perfectly suited for church groups, families, and individuals seeking a quiet, alcohol-free environment to relax and recharge their spirits in the heart of the beautiful Garden Route.
