shambaba retreat is a perfect place for nurturing yourself internally. my recommendation would be to get groceries just before you arrive so that you don't need to spend time away during your stay and really unplug from the world! but however you choose to enjoy your stay, Steve will make every effort to help you have the getaway you're looking for.
I definitely recommend making the most of the firepit. I wish we'd used it every night we were there. swapping stories and discussing spiritual growth over the fire was the highlight of my trip, but unfortunately only got to it on our last night.
