Our tea ceremony offers a rare opportunity to slow down in a quiet seaside village, where guests can experience Oriental tea culture in a peaceful setting. Every session is carefully curated, combining tea, story, and calm hospitality to help guests reconnect with themselves through the art of tea. Guests are also invited to enjoy a selection of unique teaware, each piece selected to enhance the mood and atmosphere of the experience.
