Beyond Measure
The Chozen experience feels limited by 5 stars because it is beyond. No words or stars can possibly describe a feeling that can only be had with resonance so deep that it touches your core and very being. The Chozen team are all living examples of lives well lived, in alignment with their mission to serve the planet and the humans that live within it now and for generations to come. Every moment and detail is planned with utmost intention and care. Every team member serves guests in a way that makes you feel right at home. The meals were healthy and delicious and offered so much variety. The accommodations were comfortable and relaxing. Riding bikes around the property and getting lost in the trees only to discover more beauty is like being a kid again. l can’t say enough. It’s the best experience you can offer to those you love including yourself. At worst, you have one of the best weekends of your life. At best you are met with your life’s calling. Go and see for yourself!!!
