About Earth Energies Sanctuary

A wellness retreat on a 200-acre estate at 3315 State Highway 2 in Mangatarata, Hauraki, about an hour's drive from Auckland, Hamilton and Tauranga. The estate hosts one set of guests at a time, so guests have the property and the therapy rooms to themselves. The owners, Marie and Duncan, live more than 800 metres away from the cabins.

Guests can book a day of therapies or stay overnight. Therapies are individually tailored, and can be a full or half day. Overnight guests stay in a cabin with a private balcony that looks over native bush, where tui, kereru, fantails and kingfishers are seen. Meals are prepared by the chef, and guests say they are fresh and nutritious.

Guests describe the setting as peaceful and the therapies as deeply relaxing. Some guests have come for a wedding anniversary, and others for a holiday. The farm gate and the quiet of the estate are mentioned by many visitors.
