Mandali retreat center

Perched on a spiritual hillside, Mandali Retreat Center was designed with one purpose in mind: creating a space for people to reconnect with themselves. The goal was a place that felt mindful and calm but not punishingly sober. 

RA Studio spent five years crafting this sanctuary, using natural materials like stone and wood found on-site to ensure the retreat feels as though it’s grown organically from the landscape. It’s a place that soothes the soul, with soft, warm touches that invite you to stay and explore.

Think of it as a monastery with heart, where the temple and restaurant form the spiritual and social core. The buildings are beautifully integrated into nature, with climbing plants and textures that only get better with time.
