Gwinganna Lifestyle Retreat, Queensland
Hugh Jackman loved Gwinganna so much he bought into the lifestyle retreat. Gwinganna
sits in the Gold Coast hinterland surrounded by natural bushland and running creeks with
expansive views out to the ocean horizon.
Offering two to seven night retreats, Gwinganna is all about Dream Time. Every after-
noon from 2pm retreat guests are pampered in the thirty treatment room designer day
spa set amongst the trees. Of course you have to get through an early morning bushwalk,
lifestyle workshops, yoga, Thai chi, water aerobics and the like in the morning first. Cui-
sine is gourmet and organic with an emphasis on fresh seafood and produce from their
own extensive garden.
