THE BE WELL
RETREAT
JUNE 10TH - 13TH 2022
PORT DOUGLAS
"SELF CARE ISN'T SELFISH, IT'S SELF ESTEEM" Ashley Judd
In Hindu, Niramaya means health. In the sleepy fishing village of Port Douglas, Niramaya represents a rejuvenation of the body through returning oneself to nature.
Rejuvenate your self on this winter escape over four days and three nights in luxury 5-star accommodation nestled in lush tropical surrounds. Architecturally designed for all your senses, you will feel Niramaya's subtle energy and swim in its natural beauty. The fragrance of frangipani floats on the light breeze - through soaring pavilions, into private courtyards and over the lily pad dotted lakes.
Join your hosts, Founder of Her Health Collective, Eve Drew, and Health Psychologist Dr Jodie Fleming for a nurturing women only wellness retreat like no other. Jodie and Eve are excited to create for you the space and time you’ve been searching for, to reset and to find the clarity you need to reconnect to your purpose through our exclusive workshops.
Unpretentious, understated yet stunning in every other aspect, Port Douglas is located in Australia's Northern Tropics between two World Heritage sites; ancient rain forest, unaltered from the days of dinosaurs and the Great Barrier Reef.
Whether you're swimming in your private pool, the larger infinity pool, disappearing in the pages of a book or indulging in a soothing massage or facial in the privacy of your own villa, Niramaya is luxurious and intensely private.
A short stroll takes you to the coconut fringed sands of Four Mile Beach and leads all the way to the chic village of Port Douglas where the regions famous cuisine, culture and character awaits. Our carefully designed dining experiences include a night with a personal chef in the comfort of our villas, followed by dining under the stars at two of Port Douglas’ iconic restaurants.
I'm prioritising my SELF in 2022!DAY 1
Arrive and be greeted by your hosts Jodie and Eve and join other like-minded guests to travel along one of Australia's finest coastal drives which connects Cairns International Airport to Port Douglas, 50 minutes away.
Stepping inside the architecturally designed villas, you will enjoy the luxury suites and living areas in the elegant Balinese-inspired villas with private swimming pools. Indoor & outdoor spaces combine as glass walls open onto tropical gardens, private courtyards & outdoor pavilions. This is a tropical oasis you won't want to leave.
Our guests will enjoy a peaceful afternoon settling into their holiday home at Niramaya at their leisure.

Later that evening, we will retire for a restful night’s sleep.

Enjoy some space and time for yourself before lunch which is included every day at the Niramaya Restaurant and Bar along with a tea, coffee or fresh juice or a nonalcoholic drink of your choice.
Take time this afternoon just for you. Perhaps you’ll enjoy your complimentary treatment at the day spa, contemplate this morning’s workshop or make new friends by the pool.
Let’s meet again for a pre-dinner cocktail before enjoying an incredible two-course dinner with drinks at Salsa Bar and Grill.
