Frequently asked questions

What can I expect from a monastery retreat?

It's about finding peace and gaining distance from everyday life. You'll currently find 71 monastery retreat offers at Retreat Vacation.
How much does a monastery retreat cost?

Do I need to be religious to do a monastery retreat?
No, most monasteries welcome people of all faiths as well as non-religious guests. The focus is on silence, inner reflection, and personal contemplation. Of course, respect for monastic traditions is expected.
How long should a monastery retreat last?
For a first visit, 3–5 days is recommended to truly absorb the monastic rhythm. However, there are also weekend options for a short retreat or longer stays of one to several weeks for a deeper experience.
What should I pack for a monastery retreat?
Pack comfortable, simple clothing (no bright colors), sturdy shoes for walks, toiletries, and optionally a book or journal. Many monasteries deliberately avoid electronics – check the house rules in advance.
Is there a fixed daily schedule during a monastery retreat?
