The following comments were made after our 2008 Pampering weekend.

This was a very special experience for me. It was so relaxing and very beneficial. The ladies were all very friendly and I just want to say from the time I arrived to the time I left the lodge I felt welcomed and part of a very special family. The food was very nice and well presented. I really feel like a new person.

This pamper weekend away at Matbidi was the most relaxing rewarding and beneficial weekend for me. From the time we arrived until the time we left I felt welcomed, well fed & pampered. The yoga was a wonderful time out for me. In a busy schedule like mine I now see the benefit of meditation. I can’t fault the weekend. My only regret was I never came home with a tan!!!
PS. Thank you for the goodie bag I have been to many ladies functions and this bag and contents was the most exciting one I have ever received.
