The Joy ReWard Retreat

Experience Bundi, Udaipur & Khempur, India

Saturday 1 February to Monday 17 February 2025

As women we are the nurturers of people and ideas, often putting the needs of others before ourselves.

Now it is your turn, to be nurtured and ignite your passions, turning your thoughts and ideas into reality.

In October 2022, after travelling for five hours from Gurjurat state, I entered the lush, green city of Udaipur. This old city that sits on ancient land, a land of the Maharajas, where in the quiet of the early morning the call to prayer floats over the city. Trees framed the streets, the city palace towering above. We passed local people pushing carts, herding donkeys and people drinking chai at the chaiwala’s stalls.

I didn’t know what India and this beautiful city had in store for me,

...but what I discovered was a peace within the chaos, a stillness that allowed me to gain insight into my own life, and the most beautiful and welcoming people. As I experienced a cliche personal transformation.

I wondered how I could share this experience with other women - so, I created the Joy ReWard Retreat. Named for my mother, Joy, who discovered this beautiful land. This is her legacy to me and I am ever grateful that I get to share it with you.

Imagine driving around the corner and seeing an ancient palace and fort on the hill, in its shadow a lake, a small village. And nestled in this village, is the Bundi hotel, A haveli that echoes a bygone era of the romance of India, bringing a feeling of shanti shanti. Gently leaving behind the busy-ness of the West into the peacefulness of this quiet town.

In Bundi we ease into India with local temples and a nature walk to the soothing tones of waterfalls.
