Ultimate Wellness Retreat
Description
This signature wellness retreat is designed to create a powerful shift in your overall wellbeing through a holistic approach that brings together detox, mindset, nutrition, movement and education.
In 2026, guests will also have the option to request complimentary microbiome testing, along with a dedicated gut health workshop. These added insights support a more personalised approach to mental health, digestion, immune function and overall wellbeing.
Please note that testing is optional and must be requested and completed four weeks prior to arrival.
What to expect
The wellness seminars have been updated to include leading research on your individual microbiome, neuroscience, mental health and practical bio-hacks designed to support energy, balance and overall wellbeing.
If you are looking to meaningfully improve your physical, emotional and mental health, this retreat offers the ideal setting to rest, restore and re-energise. Many guests leave feeling noticeably different, with luminous skin, brighter eyes and renewed energy.
To help bring the body back into balance, no caffeine or alcohol is served during this cleansing retreat. Both are stimulating to the body, and the focus here is on calming the nervous system to support better sleep and reduce stress. The first four lunches are vegetarian, featuring legumes, nuts and seeds to meet protein needs. All meals are thoughtfully designed to reduce inflammation, balance blood sugar, support digestion, balance body fat levels and nourish the gut microbiome.
