I spent unforgettable 10 days in the Retreat Center and for me it was really beautiful spiritual experience. Mayadevi and Shintai are just so easy to be around and very helpful always when you need some guidilance. Whatever it is that you are looking for, I am sure that stay at those peaceful place with such an amazing hosts may give you the right spin and help to get closer to the answers you are looking for. Definitely recommended! Undecided? Leave that feeling at home and just try it.

Just finished a 7 days retreat at this beautiful house, with a view words can’t describe .  You are welcomed with acceptance and smile, and that is the ingredients you need, to start your inner journey. What ever you chose to follow the energy of Francesco in Assisi, or wanna stay in your own evolving of awakening, this place has the potential for those who have never practiced self evolving, but also for the experienced ones. And the beautiful view over Monte Subasio in itself, is the whole journey worth.
Thank you!

I visited during new year 2019/2020 to withdraw from the common traditions and try something new. I was warmly welcomed initially via e-mail and during the stay.  Silent retreat center Assisi is truly a magical place to withdraw to one self in a safe and gently structured environment.

Thank you again for a most remarkable experience at your beautiful sanctuary in Assisi! A vibration of peace and love pervades the atmosphere you have created. Mayadevi's delicious and beautifully presented meals were such a joy to eat in the silence of surrender. Her massages brought healing to my body and mind. 

Shintai's care in starting the woodstove every morning in our meditation space was so appreciated by us being from the tropical Pacific. His love for San Damiano where Saint Clare lived her life and the crypt of Saint Francis allowed me to experience Christ consciousness in a way I had never felt before. His quiet direction helped us to discover the cathedrals and streets of Assisi as pilgrims as well as the natural beauty of the hiking trails around the center.

Meditating with Mayadevi and Shintai in such an intimate space invited a deeply healing bottomless depth.

I spent 5 days with Shintai & Mayadevi in August.  It was the best gift I have ever given to myself.  The gift of time, space, silence and stillness with the support and presence of two beautiful souls.  It allowed me to really release and just be.  No doing, no need to be anything to anyone, just the opportunity to return to me. I am forever grateful and I would recommend the retreat to anyone.  It’s the perfect balance of feeling supported while still having the space to rediscover yourself without the outside noise.  The food was amazing at every meal and it felt like added nourishment for the body and soul.
The location is also simply stunning with beautiful walks to explore in peace and the opportunity to visit Assisi and it’s history if you wish.

What a magical experience! Mayadevi & Shintai are both such beautiful souls. The space they create and open for others to enjoy is something special! I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to spend a few days in the flow of their life. The property was absolutely stunning and their home was so cozy and welcoming. And oh my goodness the food was delicious!! Thank you both for opening your home to me and providing this space of peace!

My 10-day retreat here was deeply refreshing and insightful. The hosts provided the space, conditions and support for full immersion in silence and introspection, just as described in their website. The center is located in a quiet spot by the hills behind mount Subasio, sorrounded by hiking trails, native vegetation and small farms. I found the acommodation quite comfortable, and the food was fresh, light, and delicious. Thank you Mayadevi and Shintai for your kind and warm hospitality, and for sharing your special place!

The picture attached is of my favourite meditation spot by a water stream, about 20 min walk from the center.
