What others say about Land van Yemaya

Inner Purpose
"As soon as you arrive on the land, you feel a sense of peace and calm wash over you. All you can hear is the wind and the birds around you. For us as facilitators, this is a wonderful place because it is equipped with all the comforts (comfortable beds, cozy spaces, even a sauna!). It offers a safe and cozy place for the participants, while at the same time providing plenty of space for everyone to retreat. In addition, the guidance is very pleasant and the contact is super easy and flexible."

"The wonderful magical Land of Yemaya. I can say that this land has become my second home in the world, not only a workplace, but family and tribe with my brother Frits and sister Inge, who take care of the "property" and their guests so very very well. I can really say that this here is a magical land, mystical and divine, as it rarely exists nowadays, and I am happy to come back here every year to offer many of my seminars here. I really can't imagine a better place."

Kiyumi Retreats
"Land van Yemaya is a magical space and I truly recommend it for anyone who wishes to facilitate a space for deep transformation. The land is raw and inviting, the nature is vast, the facilities are comfortable and homey, as well as fully equipped and professional. Above all the attentive and welcoming team makes the stay in Land van Yemaya like coming home. My group Kiyumi Retreats comes back every year a few times and I am already looking forward to the next opportunity to come."

Land van Yemaya is so beautiful..! It’s quiet, the nature is fantastic and with a bit of luck you’ll spot a squirrel or a roe deer. All buildings are new and beautifully designed. With big oak tables, thick beams and even a living coat rack. So grateful to be here and enjoy the sauna, swimming pond and the connection with all the wonderful people who were there.
I joined the silence retreat from Jan 30 to Feb 2, 2020. I can recommend this retreat to anyone who wants to slow down and needs time for themselves. It is a beautiful place in nature, with great guidance from Marije and Frits, delicious vegetarian food and plenty of space to simply be and follow your own flow.
I’ve been able to enjoy Land van Yemaya several times with a wonderful group of people. A lovely place, facilitated well and pleasantly down to the details. The words Space, Peace and Relaxed are reflected even in the interior. Land van Yemaya is a place where you can come home in full freedom. Special thanks to hosts Frits & Bart and hostess Inge for the warm, loving care and attention.
This beautiful place gives you a feeling of coming home. The peace, the nature, the sauna, the swimming pond, the lovely people. I’ve experienced twice during a gathering how great this place is. My feeling says it won’t be my last time, because there are also many beautiful retreats and other events that match my interests. Thank you for opening up this beautiful land for connection and freedom.
A wonderfully beautiful estate where a pleasant, serene calm reigns. The Yemaya team truly does everything to make everyone feel at home. The accommodations, such as the temple, are beautifully furnished and equipped with an excellent sound system. The kitchen also leaves little to be desired, of course depending on the chef you bring. If you want to plan a retreat or other event, definitely consider the Land van Yemaya estate.
An oasis in the Groningen landscape. It’s as if the entire estate breathes peace and meaning. Here you can come home and broaden your view. For me, this is the place for my retreats.
