What are we doing?
We offer a unique exchange program with safe and idyllic long-term accommodation in an island resort at an affordable price for people who align with our creative and environmental wellness ethos. Work on yourself, with others, or with the environment away from the distractions of the rest of the world. What can you achieve in ideal conditions for self-care and productivity?
The format of the exchange is similar to an artist residency, with a slice of business incubation. We support your needs as a creative entrepreneur with the agreement of reciprocation to ensure Jaiyen continues to provide empowerment for future creators to do what they do best.
Why are we doing it?
With growing economic uncertainty and anxiety over global health, we foresee the years ahead of us becoming an opportunity to look within and upgrade ourselves for what’s to come. Instead of giving in to fearful separation, let’s view it as a moment ripe for re-evaluation, contemplation, strengthening physical and mental health, inner reflection, self-work, online work, creative expression, small community bonding, and quality time with people we love.
With the many restrictions imposed on general urban lifestyles, such as scarcity of resources, bans, restrictions, and general fear of public safety, we want to extend the opportunity to make the most of our resources, through unrestricted movement on a warm, tropical island, and to be free from the fear and stress that can lead to creative burnout.
HOW TO RESERVE
Send the following to stay@jaiyenresort.com or our Facebook Messenger:
-

- Preferred check-in and check-out dates
- Short description of what you want to work on, what you believe you can offer, and what you expect from your stay. We’ll be living/working/playing together for a week to a month or longer, so anything useful you can share honestly (even if it’s a weird quirk, allergy, traumas, or triggers to watch out for) would be appreciated.
Please read Our Ethos and the About Us page on our website to see if we’re aligned. Nobody’s perfect, and we all have our issues to face and work through, however, this offer exists to empower artistic freedom and intentionally champion creators’ well-being so we are inviting people who practice compassion and cultivate self-awareness in their daily lives. No entitlement or dramas, please. Applicants will be curated and notified if successful.

Schedule/Program Options
For this particular period, we don’t have a retreat schedule or strict program to offer as everyone has different reasons and needs for being here. However, we do have some suggestions as to how you might choose to spend your time in a structured flow based on your level of energy and intensity for the day. We’re happy to share what we know and have experienced in these activities though we are not certified experts.
In keeping things simple, we suggest an approach of ‘Sit, Stretch, Smash, Share’ when choosing activities;
- SIT encompasses anything introspective and relaxing, to do withself-reflection and self-care.
- STRETCH extends your comfort zone, giving space to expand thoughts into words and actions.
- SMASH those barriers, focus with intensity on your goals, and build new habits for a better you.
- SHARE is a component specifically for this promotion, which covers what you can contribute to improve the Jaiyen environment, create a better team, or refine operational systems so that we can become a place of learning and sharing for future visitors.

About Us
Jaiyen is a new, nature-inspired resort and creative space with a unique atmosphere and focus that merges artistry with wellness. It offers holistic, personalized services to help people reconnect to their purpose and ignite creative power with the availability of various tools, equipment, and instruments.
We aim to attract proactive leaders, creatives, and impact-driven visionaries who require a safe and intimate space for self-reflection and respite or to hold collaborative think-tanks and strategic sessions away from stale and traditional suburban environments. We encourage healthy practices that can be integrated into daily lifestyle, providing modern creature comforts in natural and comfortable surroundings.
We currently have 6 cocoons in total, each overlooking the ocean, with AC, TV, WiFi, with 70 sqm internal / 35 sqm external space to accommodate individuals, couples or small groups.
We prefer to keep total capacity small and intimate so as to allow more space for personal immersion, integration & deeper social interactions. 1-3 adults per cocoon is ideal.
