"Thank you so very, very much for an absolutely amazing week in paradise. You have, together, built something very special - simple, spiritual and beautiful. It began to feel like my home. It wasn't as I expected, but grew to love it because it was not "the expected"."

"Suncokret was a dream home for us this week!"- Sasa & Blaz, Slovenia
Our facilities - include an enclosed garden (with wild herbs and flowers growing); indoor/outdoor lounge & dining areas; spiritual library with books, magazines, music & DVD's; tea corner (make your own from fresh herbs in the garden). We keep our kitchen stocked with delicious seasonal organic treats and prepare wholesome vegetarian meals, often made up from the fresh produce collected from our field and garden, whenever possible. Guests also have access to the washing machine (pay per load) and can borrow a bike or scooter at low or no cost (depending on the selected program). Our daily karma yoga program offers everyone at the retreat the opportunity to lend a hand at gardening, produce picking, food production (drying tomatoes, bottling olives), tidying up communal areas, helping out at meals, etc.

"You created an atmosphere of trust and respect, right at the start, making this place a healing corner of paradise, helping me and many more feel better and more positive toward life." - Louise, Canada
"Our holidays in the most beautiful part of the world were great!! The landscape, the sea, the beaches and coves are amazing. All these beautiful things are topped by the love with which you present your Suncokret Center. It's a very warm and personal atmosphere, the rooms are very pretty, the fridge is filled with home grown vegetables... There is always a helping hand when guests are not able to bring necessities with them... All this, and the fact that you and Stipe are personally interested in the well-being of your guests, made it possible for us to relax on the very first day. Thank you for everything!" - Martina & Marcus, Germany

"I very much appreciated the personal touch in the atmosphere & design of the space & a very marm, open contact throughout the days. Stipe's calm presenece & wonderful garden & kitchen made me smile & keept me well fed throughout my stay. The pets are great to have around, I felt like I was welcomed into a family, which made the whole experience so much more intimate & personal. It's very rare to find a mix of rural and urban, personal development and common sense- groundedness, a very Croatian & international experience simultaneously."- Maja, Belguim
"Hvar, Suncokret, Evening and Stipe is a blend of Croatian magic that has revitalized all my senses! the exquisite taste of freshly picked figs and grapes, still warm from the sun; the pervading scent of lavender and rosemary; the endless view of bright blue skies and turquoise seas; the background sounds of cicadas and church bells; the cool feel of clear sea water, and stroking (the Suncokret pets) soft head & tummy... all this, combined with the kind and generous hospitality of Evening and Stipe has made the past 2 weeks unforgettable." - Anne, UK
