Centre Val Santé is an Absolute Gem - The People Make It Exceptional
What truly makes Centre Val Santé unforgettable is the people. Liz and Oliver, the new owners, are genuinely kind and compassionate, and they have a team that makes you feel like family from the moment you arrive. I was here for over 40 days, and every single staff member--from the office team to the individuals maintaining the property--treated me with kindness, warmth, and care.
Being away from home for such a long time isn't always easy, but their encouragement, flexibility, and positive energy made all the difference. You can tell that everyone here has a genuinely kind heart, and it's that level of care and connection that will keep me coming back.
The retreat itself is wonderful, Liz has made thoughtful upgrades that enhance the experience. The deck by the river is a perfect example--it's beautifully done and such a peaceful spot for morning meditation or quiet reflection. The walking trails in the back are also stunning, and spending time in the serene natural surroundings is an absolute joy.
During my stay, I initially struggled with a mattress that was too firm for me (it had been set up for a previous guest with back issues). I experienced some back pain the first night, but when I mentioned it to the staff, they immediately offered to switch it out. They even let me try different mattresses to ensure I found the one that suited me best. This level of responsiveness and willingness to accommodate was so impressive. It's clear that their priority is your comfort, and they handle any concerns quickly and with care.
This was actually my second visit to Centre Val Santé--I had a great experience a couple of years ago, but this time, with the new ownership and all the improvements, it was even better. The amount of care and attention to detail is unmatched. Whether you're here for fasting, juicing, or simply to recharge, the staff go out of their way to make sure your experience is everything you need it to be.
If you're looking for a retreat where you'll feel supported, cared for, and truly at home, I can't recommend Centre Val Santé enough. It's not just the beautiful surroundings or the upgrades to the property (although those are amazing)--it's the people who make this place truly special. I left filled with gratitude and already can't wait to return! read more
