RETREAT SNAPSHOT
The BioHax Edit:
A rainforest-backed retreat born from rockstar DNA (hello, Olivia Newton-John) where luxury detox meets barefoot healing. Think barefoot luxury, clean air, and even cleaner nutrition.
THE EXPERIENCE
Perched high in the Byron Bay hinterland, Gaia is where spa culture and soul work finally get married. With 25 acres of rolling hills, Balinese-style pavilions, and personalised retreat programs, it’s not about escaping life, it’s about upgrading it.
This is curated self-care: tailored schedules, daily movement, spa treatments that don’t hold back, and nourishing organic meals served in your robe if needed. Come solo, as a couple, or with your not-so-broken bestie. You’ll all leave recalibrated.
WHO IT'S FOR
BioHax Snapshot:
Stressed execs, exhausted mums, seekers, cynics, creatives, and wellness junkies who want the Byron vibe without the Byron circus, plus their reluctant, golf-loving partners who suddenly don’t mind tagging along.
