Flagship Property

Moana Kōpuha

Opunake, Taranaki

Where land, sea, and spirit align. Opunake is more than a flagship — it's the spiritual home of Aroha Retreats NZ. Here, we honour the rhythm of nature, the richness of local stories, and the power of stillness.

Purpose-built and intentionally designed, this retreat space offers everything from ocean-view meditation decks to shared gardens and nurturing spaces for healing. Whether you come to facilitate, create, or simply be, Opunake offers a place to pause — and return to yourself.
