Harmony Hill Wellness Sanctuary

A Transcendent, Next-Level Retreat. I’ve just spent three nights at Harmony Hill Health Retreat and I honestly can’t recommend it highly enough. Set on 42 acres of pristine Tasmanian bushland, the private villas blend so seamlessly with the surrounding nature that you feel like the world has finally gone quiet. I fell completely in love with the sauna and salt-water spa, and the treatments… just wow. Ami, the founder, welcomes you like an old friend and somehow sees straight into your soul. Her meditation sessions unlocked and released a negative energy I didn’t even realise I’d been carrying, and it was genuinely life-shifting. Whitney, the treatment specialist, has magic hands, the brightest smile and the most calming energy I’ve ever experienced. My stay was transformative – exactly the reset I needed during a challenging time. I left feeling lighter, stronger, calmer, and fully ready to face life again. And the vegan food? Out of this world. Ami I will fly back from Perth to chase you if you don't share those recipes. To Ami and Whitney: thank you for taking such beautiful care of me when I needed it most. Australia, hear me: do yourself a favour and book a stay at Harmony Hill. It’s the place you never knew you needed.

I would love to give 5 stars, but unfortunately, my experience was more of a 3 star, particularly for the high price tag. I'll start with the good: The location is lovely, quiet and restful, and having a bathtub in the glass room was wonderful. The food was delicious (vegan), and I appreciated the supplements to help with detox and sleep. The view from the bedroom is beautiful and I definitely slept well. The spa treatments by Whitney were WONDERFUL and were definitely the highlight of my 3-day stay. Now to the not so good: The owner never once referred to me by name, even at arrival (I was the only guest at the time, so shouldn't have been difficult to remember!) :) It had me feeling more like a number than a guest, to be honest. The bush walks that were advertised were essentially walking up the long, unpaved driveway. Lovely, but not really a bush walk. During the morning guided meditation, the owner kept bringing up politics, which did not lead to a very relaxing meditation experience, so that was a bit disappointing (and my bad for not speaking up). I was told explicitly upon arrival not to rub makeup off on the towels (I didn't bring makeup with me, so that was easy). However, the towels and robe in my room were stained from someone else's make up, and the room wasn't as clean as I would have expected for the hefty price tag. All in all, while some of the stay was lovely and there were definitely things to appreciate, I would probably not do this retreat again (especially for the price) and probably would not recommend it to others other than the treatments from Whitney, which were fabulous (or at least go in with realistic expectations)!

I traveled from victoria, having found Harmony via google, and I was not disappointed. Whitney, you’re a true gem in the art of healing. Thank you for the 10 hours we spent together. The morning meditation that Ami conducted were great and I loved the morning stretches. Also loved that she met me when waiting for the taxi to the airport. The food was incredible and the bed is super comfy and HUGE. The rooms tub is a nice addition (I had a bath every night). Those complaining about stained towels are ridiculous, where I stayed was perfectly clean and always smelled amazing. The cleaner even left the heater on for me after cleaning! Also some of these reviews are HARSH! Japanese culture and language barriers are not a reason to give a negative review. But for 10 hours of massage/chakra, 3 x meals a day and accommodation with a tub it was well worth it. I honestly feel like a new person after my stay. I can’t wait to go back. Each to their own, but I loved my stay!

Much love and gratitude for the opportunity to experience the wonders of Harmony Hill. Just what I needed to switch off, refresh, and reset. Time for self-reflection has provided me with ultimate possibilities moving forward. Ami was welcoming and a wonderful host. All the care and attention to my requirements were met and I was so lucky to have the space on my own. The facilities and location were perfect. The surrounding bush environment was beautiful and to be greeted at dawn and dusk by beautiful wildlife was bliss. I felt so relaxed during my 5 days at Harmony Hill. This place isn't just a health retreat, it’s a space to create inner harmony and feels like a big hug for your body and soul. Ami – I love your passion for seeing the best in everything and one’s well-being and healing. The meals were nourishing and delicious - great for the mind and body (especially the mustard greens 😊). I enjoyed the yoga and meditation along with our chats. Whitney – Your massage and treatments were amazing and my body is better for this. The pampering, attention and friendliness are much appreciated. Thanks for sharing your lovely energy. My heartful thanks and gratitude for everything. I highly recommend this retreat. Love and light, Kathryn
