— HEART & HISTORY —
The Ren Xue Villa
Welcome to the Ren Xue Villa, a peaceful sanctuary nestled within the heart of the Ren Xue Farm in beautiful Onekakā, just across from the Ren Xue Centre site.
Originally a local landmark, the “Old Villa” has long been part of the Onekakā community, serving over its history as a post office, library, and general store. When Ren Xue Australasia purchased the Ren Xue Farm in 2022, the Villa had fallen into a state of disrepair. However, its history, character, and potential as a place of connection and restoration remained deeply valued.
Through the dedication and generosity of many helping hands, the Villa has been lovingly restored, honouring its heritage. Today it offers a warm, peaceful, and welcoming space that reflects the care and intention behind its renewal.
— ACCOMMODATION —
A beautifully restored building steeped in local history
Whether you're here to deepen your practice, attend a workshop, or simply rest and recharge, the Villa offers a warm, welcoming space for the Ren Xue community.
The Villa forms part of the broader vision for the Ren Xue Australasia Project. It represents a place where people can gather, rest, learn, and grow. Over time, it will become integrated with the wider activities of the Ren Xue Farm and Centre, serving the needs of the broader Project.
While the wider Centre and Farm developments continue, the Villa is currently available for private stays and small gatherings. This provides an opportunity for guests to experience this unique place while supporting its ongoing care and development.
Villa Booking Information
The Villa is currently being trialled under a new booking model for 12 months. During this period, the Villa is available to book as a whole house, rather than by individual rooms.
We know this is quite different from how the Villa has been available in the past, so we suggest that groups come together to book the Villa.
Ren Xue groups receive 20% off their booking using the code RXTEACH.
Room-by-room bookings will continue to be available either side of the November retreat. To enquire about room availability, please contact sharon.munro@renxueaustralasia.org.
Ren Xue Villa Facilities
The newly restored villa features:
4 private bedrooms - 3 doubles and one twin
Shared kitchen, bathroom and laundry facilities.
A serene, supportive environment for rest, reflection and Ren Xue practice.
Enjoy the simplicity and stillness of this lovingly renovated space, perfect for family retreats or small community gatherings.
