Hi — I'm Hamza, the founder of Makanoo.
I've spent almost 20 years practising and attending retreats — surf, yoga, dance, circus, personal development — and 15 years working in travel technology and Data Science / AI. Somewhere in between, I kept running into the same thing: finding the right space, and understanding what a venue's quote really means, is slow, opaque, and far more work than it should be.
People who lead retreats deserve a clearer, faster way to choose well — without spending hours acting like their own travel agent. So I started Makanoo, to bring some light to a corner of this work that still runs on manual enquiries, non-standard contracts, and big financial commitments made without a clear view of how they'll turn out.
