Four Reasons You Deserve a Break
Set within lush Australian bushlands, this eco-sanctuary encourages guests to disconnect from the demands of daily life and reconnect with the person within. In a world that moves quickly, Billabong Retreat offers something many of us crave – space to breathe. It’s Time for Self-Care The simple act of pausing is powerful. Stepping away from routine allows the mind to soften, the body to exhale and the spirit to reset. This philosophy lies at the heart of Billabong Retreat, a serene haven just 45 minutes from Sydney’s CBD. Spanning 12 acres of natural bushland in Maraylya, the retreat offers everything from one-day escapes to multi- night wellness immersions designed to restore energy and inner clarity. Thoughtfully curated retreat programs focus on mindfulness, yoga and meditation, complemented by organic, nourishing meals. Guests can enrich their stay with educational workshops, optional spa treatments, or a soothing float in the magnesium pool - ideal for easing tired muscles and recalibrating the nervous system. Quiet nooks throughout the property, including the peaceful billabong itself, provide the perfect backdrop to unwind, journal, or simply observe the natural world. “Just taking a few minutes or an hour away from your usual routine can replenish depleted energy levels and refresh a tired mind. Imagine what a full day or even longer could achieve?” says founder Paul von Bergen. Weekly retreat options include two-night Self-Care, Meditation and Stress Relief Retreats, as well as three-night Live with Ease and Energise Life Retreats. Prices start from $600 per person for a two-night all-inclusive stay, with Day Retreat packages available from $125 midweek and $150 on weekends.
Time to Unwind: Experience the rejuvenation that comes from stepping away from the noise of everyday life. With space to pause and reflect, you’ll feel restored, balanced and re-energised. Be Nourished: Enjoy seasonal, locally sourced wholefoods crafted into delicious organic meals. Each dining experience is both wholesome and deeply satisfying, food that truly fuels you from the inside out. Embrace Nature: The surrounding bushland invites calm, connection and perspective. Billabong Retreat’s eco-friendly philosophy nurtures both guests and the earth, allowing you to enjoy nature in its purest form. Be Inspired: From meditation and stress management to gut health workshops and healthy cooking classes, the retreat’s diverse wellness sessions support a holistic, mind-body-spirit approach to living well.
