Marello Youth Retreat Center is a 10,000 square foot facility reminiscent of the mission-style architecture so dear to California. Its red tiled roof and “adobe-like” walls create an other-worldliness that beckons youth to venture beyond their daily existence to welcome the opportunity for reflection, contemplation, sharing and growth.

This retreat center and its rural setting are ideally suited to meet the needs of young people. Retreat directors, youth ministers, advisors, teachers and directors of religious education will appreciate retreat time and instruction in an environment that allows for spiritual inquiry and growth within a secular world that sometimes can be overwhelming and distracting.
