This resort is famous for providing the ultimate relaxation experience, where you’ll get a chance to delve into an extensive range of spa treatments and gourmet dining options at the very heart of Jarrah forest.

For those who wish to roam around Perth Hills, there are a variety of exciting activities to enjoy as well! Couples can opt to take a guided spotlight tour at Karakamia Wildlife Sanctuary or join an apple orchard tour to pick your own apples (during harvest). You could also visit Kalamunda – a quaint village just a 10-minute drive away, or the neighbouring Bickley Valley with its many award-winning boutique wineries to discover. At the end of the day, you can either explore this stunning region or just chill out and be immersed in your little piece of paradise, completely immune from the outside world.
Situated on a secluded beach in the heart of the Yallingup, Injidup Spa Retreat features 10 luxurious adult-only villas, each with a private plunge pool and stunning ocean views. Injidup Spa also offers massages and body treatments in a unique setting along with an incredible view that overlooks the pristine ocean.
A mere five minutes’ drive from Wardan Aboriginal Cultural Centre and 40-minute drive away from the Busselton Airport, adventure seekers have the option of trekking through the ever-popular Cape-to-Cape Track which offers a revitalising walk along the coast. You can also opt to tour the vineyards of Margaret River, one of Australia's top wine regions, or learn about the local flora with a night nature walk guided by an Aboriginal expert. What are you waiting for? Escape the hustle and bustle of the city to the unspoiled Injidup Bay, where massages, champagne, and quiet sunsets are the order of the day.
3. Experience an authentic Kimberley retreat like no other
280 kilometres north-west of Kununurra, Faraway Bay is an inviting haven, nestled on a rocky hilltop overlooking the turquoise Timor Sea. Cocooned in this natural environment, the retreat offers the most authentic and unique experience of any coastal camp in the Kimberley. Exclusive and personalised, be mesmerised by the extraordinary sights, sounds and magic of this isolated slice of the Kimberley.
For those seeking a little thrill at the side, grab the opportunity to explore the region’s rare natural wonders – the iconic King George Falls and discover the secrets of this ancient landscape. Faraway Bay is truly an experience that one will never forget – a remote wilderness which combines pure comfort and relaxation, with bush retreat simplicity and stargaze lounging.
4. Embrace a green connection at multi-award winning Karijini Eco Retreat
Located in the heart of the Karijini National Park, Karijini Eco Retreat is certainly one of the top bucket list destinations for a retreat getaway – with glamorous camping, comfortable beds, showers and views from every angle, along with incredible food.
Whether you are camping or ‘glamping’, this retreat offers the perfect solution for visitors seeking to blend a rugged encounter in the pristine Karijini National Park, with creature comforts that are not traditionally associated with camping.
If you come by during the cooler months, the land will be covered with a colourful spread of wildflowers, from yellow-flowering cassias, northern bluebells to purple mulla-mullas. From the campground, there is a short walking trail which leads directly into Joffre Gorge – where you can stand at the top and be overwhelmed by the splendour of nature. And after a day of trekking around this picturesque landscape, be enchanted by the rays of the sunset, along with an endless blanket of stars at night that seem to reflect the timelessness of this place.
Come and explore these exclusive wellness retreats of Perth and beyond! The diversion from the concrete jungle is a breath of fresh air for many and will certainly leave a memorable imprint in your wellness retreat adventure.
