Kawai Purapura Retreat Centre

I worked here for a weekend doing around the 15 hours a day of making coffee for rude hippies during a festival, no breaks. I never got paid for the 30+ hours I worked (wages were discussed beforehand). Staff were rude and weird, we didnt even get fed! The one time I ate that whole weekend it was a singular potato. Shouldve been thankful but seeing what the office staff got fed? Nah. Do not work here, dont volunteer here. I can only imagine what they put their volunteers through.

decent place to stay, room was clean. the place is awesome however, my folding bike got stolen here, it was flat tyre and the back tyre was locked too so you cannot use it unless you unlocked it. the only way the thief could take the bike is to carry it. i asked the staff but they were not helpful at all. i think they're the one who took my bike and sold it off Safety: my folding bike got stolen here.

DO NOT GO THERE!! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE PLACE TO LIVE. PEOPLE WITH ADDICTIONS AND MENTALLY UNSTABLE, VERY POOR MANAGEMENT AND I'M PRETTY SURE THEY DO NOT COMMIT WITH THE HEALTHY LIVING STANDARDS. WORST EXPERIENCE EVER.
