Absolutely loved every moment!  Julia couldn’t have planned every detail any better.  Yoga, workshops, hiking, snorkeling, relaxing and just breathing made it an awesome experience.  The Inn was gorgeous, unique, and serene.  The staff was very accommodating and kind.     Thank you Julia for planning this once in a lifetime experience.  Looking forward to next year.  💕

Rainforest Sanctuary Yoga Retreat

This was a wonderful trip down to every detail.  The hike and snorkeling were perfect adventures in between yoga and relaxing.  The Inn was lovely and food was excellent.

Michelin rated 18.9 of 20, the mossy, stone sugar plantation that makes up Golden Rock sits among 100 acres of tropical gardens, hiking trails, and Caribbean views. Even in July, the air at Golden Rock caresses your skin as ocean breezes rustle the surrounding palm trees and maintain an ideal temperature.&nbsp;

Our Promise

Golden Rock Inn, noted as one of the best boutique hotels in the Caribbean, is a colorful island hotel born from a 19th century sugar plantation perched at 1,000 feet above sea level on the unspoiled Isle of Nevis.
 
Dating back to the early 1800’s, Golden Rock sits on a hundred acres stretching up the verdant slopes of Nevis Peak. Eleven guest rooms offer privacy, glorious tropical gardens, and sea views toward the Caribbean islands of Antigua and Montserrat. With more than 50 species of palms, native plants and grasses, exotic flowering trees and bushes, and ancient palms and ferns dating back more than 280 years, the gardens themselves are a noteworthy destination.&nbsp;
 
Sit on your terrace or in one of the property's many hidden nooks, and watch Antillean crested hummingbirds sip nectar from magenta-colored flowers. Spot a vervet monkey in the trees. Enjoy the constant sea breeze rustling the property's many palms. Listen to tree frogs sing you to sleep.&nbsp;

Engage all the senses

In July 2022, Julia visited Golden Rock Inn with her family. The moment they arrived, she felt its magical energy and was overwhelmed with its beauty and peace. She immediately knew she had to bring the Soul Society Family back to experience the magic. As said in Islands, Golden Rock is "...the kind of place you start planning your return to before you’ve even left..." That's exactly what she did.

"Go spearfishing, mountain biking, or hike up the island’s highest peak… or take it easy by the freshwater pool...while chattering green vervet monkeys look down from the surrounding mango and avocado trees"
Brides
 
"Designed by the architects of the famed Aman resorts, the intimate 11-room property is nestled within lush gardens and has serious art world cred"

Why we chose Golden Rock Inn

Julia brings two decades of movement practice, yogic study, and teaching to her classes. She has also traveled extensively and enjoys sharing her favorite places with others.&nbsp;
 
Julia discovered yoga in 2002 and immediately felt at home. She continued practicing daily and when her mother was diagnosed with cancer, Julia knew that yoga could help her physically, emotionally, and spiritually through her cancer journey. She enrolled in Yoga for Integrative Therapy teacher training program. Ten years later, when her mother eventually died from cancer, yoga helped Julia through immense grief. She opened Soul Society Yoga to provide a space to nurture self care and self love, and to share the gifts of yoga. Soul Society provides opportunities for the people to care for themselves in body, mind and spirit.&nbsp;
 
Julia's intention with Soul Society Retreats is to share some of the world's best travel destinations with a yoga mindset. Soul Society Retreats will enable you to explore, recharge, and connect with nature and yourself on a deeper level by stepping outside of your daily routine and into an experience meticulously planned with you in mind.&nbsp;
