I have just recently been to the 7 day detox programme at Gwinganna and can say it was awesome - in fact really transformational. It was my first time and I was nervous about meeting people and also what was ahead of me. But after the first day, I felt so comfortable and it was just so energising - getting... More

I enjoyed GwingannaI very much, from the early morning Qi Gong on the grass at sunrise, to retiring to my comfortable room at 8pm. After Qi Gong we went for a bush walk breathing in the beautiful fresh air and taking in the amazing scenery! A delicious breakfast was awaiting us on our return of fresh fruit, muesli and some...

I have been visiting Gwinganna since it opened, and it has been a life-changing experience. Bit by bit, I have taken on board the wisdom imparted by the knowledgeable, enthusiastic professionals, to help me live a fuller and healthier life. Gwinganna is the perfect combination of relaxation and self-improvement - aptly named a lifestyle retreat.

I thoroughly enjoyed 7 nights at Gwinganna. I travelled on my own which I recommend. The mix of activities was great and the food was superb. In this regard I'm very fussy.. It was so fresh, healthy and for me there was plenty of it. My room was a Heritage one... Nicely but simply furnished with a big comfy bed... More

I have recently returned from Gwinganna and had a wonderful time. Few places can hold their head high with such an amazing culture, nothing was to much trouble for their very caring and professional staff. We stayed for a weekend and found the accommodation in the Villas to be stunning and the food was not only organic but delicious, with... More

I felt like a changed woman after the Detox week. Unsure of what to expect I arrived with a mixed sense of excitement and dread. Checking in was easy and I was directed to my room (very comfortable) although I believe I had the opportunity to use an IPOD I was never offered one. Just after arriving we experienced one... More

Overall enjoyable, but service not up to par in many areas and questionable value for a high end experience. For a $3000 weekend it did not start well. My husband and I arrived onsite at 5.04pm on a Friday to find the reception closed. We went to what we thought was the shop (general store written on the window) we... More

The men's retreat well and truly exceeded my expectations. I expected 'rabbit food' but was treated to amazing tastes every meal. Gwingana taught me that healthy eating does not have to be bland. The staff were also fantastic. They all seemed to really enjoy their work - no surpirse there! What a beautiful place. To be honest I was not... More

What an amazing week - I had never done anything like this and was a ittle nervous at first. The whole place and the staff though make you feel better just by being there. I have had a tough year like so many others and this has really helped me see my way forward. Can't thank them enough. Do it,... More
