There is an enchanted tree in the middle of the ocean, rooted way down into the earth, a tree-island broader than any key in the Caribbean. Its trunk is stronger than Poseidon and its crown is far-reaching, providing shelter to a vast number of creatures.

Nereid’s Treehouse is much like a regular island, with golden beaches, massive rocks, and even rivers and ponds, but its tree parts are woven into every inch of the island. There are underwater root-coves for sea nymphs and other ocean life to make their homes in the underside of the tree. No one lives on the Treehouse permanently, but every visitor takes care to contribute.

A Nereid is a sea nymph from Greek mythology; they are the protectors of ocean life and sailing vessels, providing safe passage and nurturing young and vulnerable plants and animals. Here on the Treehouse, they guard the divine feminine, that part of each and every being that relies on the sacred element of water.

And who are the visitors? You are, of course! If you’re the kind of seeker who finds solace in nature, if you want to feel more relaxed in your body, if you need comfort, fun, and nourishment, you are welcome. Here, you can heal your body and spirit and find joy in your human form. And the longer you stay, the more Nereid-like you become.
