Beautiful relaxing stay
A beautiful place just to relax. If you do not want to do anything else. The food was great. The Yoga, wonderful and so many other things to do outside of the village as well. This has been our fourth time and we'll be back again. Thank you very much.

Complete Renewal and Heart Connection
I have stayed at Krishna Village a number of times now and always leave feeling renewed and reconnected to my body, mind and heart. There's wonderful people to connect with over a meal but also plenty of space to be alone. The yoga classes and other workshops to attend on the weekly schedule are always great and the kirtan and nourishing food ensure a soulful stay. I highly recommend and will return again and again.

Awesome and wonderful
My time at Krishna Village was truly transformative — a deeply spiritual and peaceful experience. The silence, the devotion, and the divine energy all around brought me closer to my inner self. Every moment felt sacred and serene.

2 day retreat
I stayed at the village for just 2 nights but felt I had a great rounded experience. I liked that the timetable was set about the same each day so meal times all made sense and were predictable. I enjoyed the classes and talks and the mix of instructors. The premise is well kept with many volunteers helping keep everything tidy. The food was superb! I was also offered a tour of the temple with a chance to ask honest questions.
It was great to be around like minded people although I was surprised how busy it was. One lunch there must have been 120-150 people with a tour bus that had arrived as well.
The cottage I stayed in was new and tidy. Only down side was the septic nearby that wasn’t pleasant and the volunteer building behind cottage 5 was sometimes noisy from the volunteers gathering there.
I had a wonderful deep tissue massage from a lovely Chilean woman.
All in all I would recommend and return. :)
The surrounding area of Uki, Burringbar, and Murwillambah are also lovely places.
Massage rocks was recommended as a swimming hole nearby and it was perfect for a springtime cool off.
