This guest wanted a few days of quiet solitude first and then two days of pampering. You can create your own flow and pace. This guest chose to arrange for all her own meals. She shopped for her own food and explored many restaurants in Ojai and the surrounding area. Retreats of Ojai is happy to arrange a personal catering service for you. There are several options: ~ We can stock your house fridge with your grocery list for the week ~ We work with a wonderful caterer who will prepare food and bring two to three days worth so that you have minimal invasion of your privacy and schedule. ~ We can work together to develop a menu and have each meal prepared by our fantastic chef at your specified time. You Choose! Activities can be arranged to your desire. You may have a focus of health, time alone, adventure in nature, exploring food and wine, or taking a guitar lesson. We can arrange it! Just ask.
