Whitsundays
A retreat for stillness, renewal, and deep rest.
The retreat that almost didn’t happen.
For years, I searched for a place that felt both luxurious and effortless—somewhere close enough to reach with ease, yet far enough to feel worlds away. Again and again, I came up short.
Just as I was ready to let go of the vision, it appeared.
A breathtaking villa, tucked away in the Whitsundays—quiet, elegant, and immersed in nature. A space that felt like it had been waiting for us all along.
A rare opportunity to pause.
Step away from the noise and return to presence. Over four days, immerse yourself in rejuvenating yoga, quiet reflection, and deep, nourishing rest—all in a setting designed to restore.
With a small, intimate group, luxurious surroundings, and practices curated for renewal, this is a space to soften, breathe, and simply be.
Meet your host.
I’m Sadie, the heart behind this retreat. Through life’s many transitions, yoga has been my guiding anchor—offering clarity, resilience, and balance.
But this retreat isn’t just time away; it’s an invitation to realign with yourself, rediscover what truly matters, and return home feeling deeply restored.
What to expect.
Every detail of this retreat has been intentionally crafted to nourish you—body, mind, and spirit.
Luxury in Every Detail – Elegant accommodations with garden terraces, open spaces, and panoramic views.
Soulful Movement & Stillness – Morning and evening yoga practices to realign and restore.
Nourishing Wholefood Cuisine – Thoughtfully prepared, seasonal meals by our wholefood chef, Asja.
Deep Rest & Renewal – Restorative sound healing, spa therapy, and time for quiet reflection.
This is more than a retreat—it’s a sanctuary. A space to reset, refocus, and return home with clarity.
What you’ll take home.
You’ll return home with a renewed sense of clarity and purpose, deep rest—both physically and mentally—and meaningful connections that linger long after you leave. Equipped with simple, mindful tools, you’ll step back into daily life feeling lighter, stronger, and deeply recharged.
A glimpse into your days.
Each day is intentionally designed to restore. Slow mornings, spacious afternoons, and evenings filled with warmth and connection.
Mornings – Gentle wake-ups, energising yoga, and guided reflection.
Afternoons – Time for rest, spa therapies, and optional workshops.
Evenings – Soulful dinners, firelit sharing circles, and quiet moments under the stars.
Space to move, breathe, reflect, and simply be.
Now, discover the tranquil spaces designed to hold you in rest and renewal.
