What this place offers
Deluxe Cabins
Cliff top cabins with outdoor bath overlooking the billabong featuring queen or twin beds, lounge, tea making, indoor and outdoor bath.
I've stayed at Billabong Retreats on three occasions. Twice in a room in the Cottage which has two beds but I prefer not to share. The Cottage rooms are small but comfortable and perfect for one, handy to the lovely pool and the dining and lounge areas and programs held in the main area. At my most recent stay, the food was abundant, with very healthy vegetarian and vegan options, many varieties of tea available, as well as coffee and fruit if you still feel hungry between meals. The self care program was very useful for me as I am a carer for two different people who depend on me for support and practical assistance. The massage and facial were wonderful. I love the pool and lounging around as well as the walks around the billabong with it's beautiful water lillies and views. Mainly female guests but not exclusively, and all very friendly. If you need a break and some healthy pampering, this is the place.

I can’t describe the feeling of peace and calm you get from spending time at Billabong retreat. I just returned from my second visit which was unfortunately only one night but I still left feeling incredible. Walking into my room and seeing a note that said ‘thank you for coming back’ was touching and the food was as amazing as I remembered, Claire our retreat host was a very good yoga teacher, I got a lot out of the classes and also the workshop on the theory of kinesiology. It was hot so having a dip in the pool was bliss and the aircon in the room kept the temperature perfect. I heard people saying they would rather get a sleep in than get up early to do yoga by the billabong but it’s a magical experience and well worth the effort. Can’t wait to get back for a longer visit next time. Highly recommend the deluxe rooms which have a bathtub on the balcony while looking up at the stars before bed with no screen time.

We recently had the day retreat at Billabong retreat and are already booking our next longer stay. From the time you are greeted by the staff at reception you know you are in good hands. The food is delicious and the yoga and wellness workshops are run by the most centred and caring instructors. If you are looking for a place to reset yourself then look no further. It is amazing for the body, heart and soul and i can not stop spreading the word to friends and family. Do yourself a favour and visit this amazing sanctuary.

We absolutely loved our stay at Billabong Retreat. The accommodation was excellent and the location is beautiful, peaceful, and incredibly relaxing — a perfect escape from busy city life.
The food was fantastic. It’s all vegetarian (not vegan), and the kitchen staff and chef were amazing — so welcoming, attentive, and accommodating to everyone’s needs.
The yoga and meditation sessions were wonderful, and mentor Jurdi was outstanding — very attentive, supportive, and genuinely helpful throughout our stay.
Jackie from reception was very helpful
This short break was exactly what we needed to reset and unwind. Highly recommended.

BIllabong Retreat far exceeded my expectations! The staff were amazing, the food was delicious, daily hot stone massages were the perfect treat, and the retreat program on meditation and mindfulness were also right on point. Yoga on the deck overlooking the billabong was also incredible. The yoga instructors and course facilitators were also excellent! I absolutely loved my stay and will definitely be back!
