Kristy CastanedaGet ready to get your zen on. Beautiful, peaceful grounds. Pleasant helpful staff. A gift to yourself to attend. Had to make reservations. Entry from 1-2p on the day I attended. I believe there are 2 entry times a day. Check website. Was open until 4:30. I spent just under 2 hours enjoying the grounds. Many little nooks to sit and leave the world behind. You don't need to know how to meditate to enjoy this place. If you sit and enjoy and be fully present in the moment...you are meditating. Gift shop, small unique museum of the founders things/history.
Tina DeSantoIt was mostly, pretty quiet and people were respecting the space for meditation. Not too many selfie-takers. The trickling and flowing water created soothing sounds, the ocean breeze could be felt in certain areas, and there were shaded spaces to sit quietly and reflect. Small space, but well maintained. Some of the tropical climbers are incredibly huge! It doesn't take long to just walk through the entire garden. You can spend 15 minutes there or sit for hours and enjoy.
The Market HPJust the most perfect day to spend here. I'm happy to see the place so busy. The gates are open and someone warm will greet you. The place is free but donations are welcomed. You can spend as much time as you want. The koi fish are all nice and fat, the views spectacular with plenty of benches all around. The ground's are perfectly manicured.
Ali SI can't believe that anytime I mention this place, no one knows what I am. It is the perfect place to go to unwind, relax, meditate, or just enjoy the beauty of San Diego. This meditation garden is free to the public within certain hours. Breathtaking views of the ocean, great vegetation, and even some coy fish swimming around. This has chill vibes and is 100% worth the drive.
KellyThis place was amazing very beautiful very well-kept I wish that being a meditation Garden kids weren't allowed to be all loud and screaming and running around. It is a meditation Garden not a zoo. I was able to utilize this area to write my book while I was on vacation there. The gate manager was very friendly as well. I would definitely would like to look into taking the whole retreat experience next time I'm in that part of town.
