Coming as a couple

Time away, together.

A private Sunshine Coast retreat for two, with room to rest and space to follow your own rhythm.

A stay shaped around both of you.

Come together for a change of pace, time by the sea and a break from the demands of everyday life. Your retreat is private: one person or one couple at a time, with Deb and Ian planning the stay with you.

You stay in your own self-contained apartment in Cotton Tree, Maroochydore, across Alexandra Parade from the beachside park and beach. There is space to cook, read and relax between arranged experiences. Pools, spa, sauna and gardens are shared with other residents and guests.

You do not need to want exactly the same things. Tell us what each of you hopes for, what you would like to do together and where you would appreciate time on your own. We discuss the practical arrangements before anything is booked.

Choose a starting point.

All three existing retreat pathways can be explored for a couple: the Private Personalised Beach Retreat, the Counselling & Personal Reset Retreat and the Holistic & Alternative Retreat. Suitable elements can be combined in your personalised plan.

Coming as a couple does not automatically include joint counselling or a relationship programme. Any counselling arrangements are discussed individually before booking. Beach Health Retreat is a non-clinical wellbeing retreat.

Meals may be arranged with local providers, or you can self-cater. Optional extras are at additional cost, subject to availability. Your plan sets out the arrangements and price for you to consider.

A few things you may be wondering.

Will we join a group?

No. The retreat is private, for one person or one couple at a time.

Do we need to choose the same experiences?

Tell us your individual preferences and what you would like to share. We discuss the arrangements with you before confirming the plan.

Which apartment will we stay in?

Apartments vary in layout, furnishings and outlook. Your apartment is confirmed in your retreat plan. See the accommodation.

How do we enquire?

Use the retreat planner and choose two guests. Deb or Ian reply personally within two business days. Sending an enquiry does not make a booking.

Your starting point

Two nights by the beach. Time for you.

From AUD $1,400 for one guest, for the full two-night Private Personalised Beach Retreat.

Your two-night stay includes your own private 4-star apartment, one massage per guest, a hosted experience in the shared Sundeck Gardens sauna, a coastal or nature experience, and meditation or breathwork. Deb and Ian plan your retreat personally, welcome you and check in during your stay, with unhurried time between experiences to enjoy the beach and make yourself at home. Accommodation, these wellbeing experiences and personal hosting are all included in the starting price. Hosted experiences are shared for couples.

The longer you stay, the better the value. Enjoy more time to settle in, unwind and make the most of your retreat. Ask us to compare longer-stay options in your personalised quote.
