We just had a great overnight stay at the retreat for my wife’s birthday. We stayed in a delux queen cabin. The outside bath overlooking the billabong was a lovely experience and the cabin was comfy. It had kettle, mini fridge, aircon etc. As a meat eater, I was sceptical about the vegetarian food but it was fantastic. The cooked breakfast was a pleasant surprise. Yoga and meditation classes were educational, beneficial and enjoyable. The retreat can be described as a “peaceful bubble” where you are surrounded by nature, tranquility and calmness. Worth a visit for all. Hard to believe you are so close to civilisation!

Great experience.
As someone who has never formally practised yoga, I was able to participate and learn so much. I believe I would of not enjoyed it if it weren't for Lacie our instructors energy.
Spa treatments available, fell asleep in the during the facial, so definitely was relaxed.

Billabong Retreat was perfect for me to disconnect from work and mobile devices, relax and reset my nervous system, in a supportive environment, great self-care program, yoga and meditation, with like-minded staff and guests, in a beautiful nature setting and comfortable accommodation. Thank you!

The most tranquil place I’ve been to!
The sounds of Bellbirds, Kookaburra’s and Frog’s are the natural background music as you practice Yoga and Meditation and eat delicious wholesome food.
I only had 24 hours, so made sure I could experience as much as possible.
But was an awesome taste of what this place is all about.
Definitely plan on going back again.
The staff are fabulous, knowledgeable and welcoming.
Would highly recommend!

I've had the most beautiful stay at the Billabong Retreat. I stayed in the Cottage which is a stone throw from everything but no noise. I read up on reviews and a few reviews said the noise from the road was disturbing, I heard nothing. Also the reviews said that there was not enough food I don't know how much food they needed the food was delicious and plentiful. I am a very fussy eater and even brought some snacks in case I didn't like the food. I took my snacks home with me. The staff at the retreat are all so lovely and go above and beyond to make your stay a great experience. Do yourself a favour book yourself a stay at the Billabong Retreat and find your soul and come back a better more relaxed person ready to face the day to day struggles that life throws at us. THANK YOU BILLABONG RETREAT, I will be back x

Location is exquisite and only 1hr drive from syd. Sensational food. Walked away after 2 nights feeling nourished and so relaxed.

This is my 4th visit (I think), and I always get what I want, which is peace and quiet, connecting with nature, meeting some interesting like minded people, and generally resetting. (and escaping a far too fast paced existence). Did i say how well I slept as well? !
I like the relaxed atmosphere of do what you want / or don't, which suits me fine. I did hear a couple of comments re other things to do, but that's not me. For me it's a luxury to sit and read a book or talk to people without thinking of endless to-do lists.
So thank you again, for this incredibly relaxing experience, I'll be back!

Had one of the most relaxing weekends of my life at Billabong Retreat! Our room was stunning, the location was incredibly tranquil and the yoga/meditation sessions were great for a beginner like me. The food was definitely a highlight - everything was wholesome, nutritious and delicious. Will definitely be back here!

A breathtakingly beautiful retreat, with delicious healthy food and really lovely friendly staff. Yoga is very gentle. Highly recommend as a rejuvenating getaway!

This was my second time at Billabong (my previous visit was in 2018). I travelled via train and was able to arrange private transport to and from the nearest station. My relatively new Terrace Room was spacious and had everything I needed (and being a decent walk from the main building gave me some much needed additional exercise!). The yoga and meditation sessions and lectures were great, as were the teachers. The food was amazing, and the chefs' descriptions of what they were serving and the benefits of different foods and food combinations were very educational. I was initially a bit anxious about being there on my own but I ended up meeting so many friendly and interesting people. After my 5 nights there I felt the best I had in years. Highly recommended.

Billabong is a lovely place to be nurtured and to relax - and just to do whatever you like. Excellent food and soooooo much of it. Cant stop eating. I will be back.

I attended 6 yoga sessions, all of the meditation workshops, enjoyed amazing food, and met some wonderful people. The place was gorgeous and it's definitely a place I would love to go back to in the future.

My daughter and I went to Billabong retreat for 2 nights. It was her idea and I was quite hesitant.
I can't believe how much the yoga teachers and the workshops have helped my anxiety and the stress I was feeling in my everyday life. I never knew how to sit and enjoy the moment. I'm so grateful for everything this retreat has to offer. Kerry Anne was the lady that gave me a massage and I had never had a massage like this one. She was amazing.
The Chef was incredible and the food was tasty also creative. I have so many good good things to say but honestly it was life changing for me. I wish I had gone years ago. Oh one more thing the magnesium pool was so relaxing.
Thank you to all the staff you are all incredible. Namaste

Loved my experience at the retreat!
The staff and owners have created a special space to help you relax and de-stress.
The website and photos don’t do this place justice, it’s absolutely beautiful!
I’m not one to eat vegetarian food often but the catering was brilliant and only after a 3 day reatreat I can already feel my body is nourished and feels so much better.

I have just stayed here for 3 nights and 4 days at one of the treehouse - up on check in there was a bit of a hiccups but that got sorted and all was good, thank you Lily.

I have enjoyed everything at Billabong - the food is yummy and filling, yoga classes were great and so were the meditations in the evenings, so were the workshops.

There is a really nice community - many people have been there many times and have met amazing group of women here,

The staff are friendly and welcoming - they work hard and make sure your stay is comfortable.

I have done few other retreats - from my experience Billabong is one of the best, I will be back again in the warmer months for yoga on the deck please:)
