We’re absolutely delighted to share some exciting news that marks a proud moment in Eden’s journey.
Eden Health Retreat has been awarded ‘Best Luxury Wellness & Health Retreat 2025 – Australia’ by the internationally recognised LUXlife in the category Resorts and Retreats Awards.
This is more than just an award, it’s a celebration of the Eden philosophy and every guest, practitioner, team member and supporter who has shaped our sanctuary into what it is today. It’s a moment that fills us with pride, gratitude and deep inspiration to keep evolving.
A Place Where Wellness Comes to Life
Nestled in the Gold Coast hinterland of Currumbin Valley, Eden isn’t just a retreat – it’s a deeply personal, life-changing experience. For over four decades, we’ve quietly welcomed guests into a place of stillness and sanctuary, where they can disconnect from the chaos and reconnect to themselves.
To be recognised as Australia’s leading luxury wellness and health retreat reaffirms what our guests have always told us: Eden is a rare and restorative place that offers far more than a holiday; it’s a return to balance.
“To receive this award is both humbling and deeply affirming,” says Ash Martin, General Manager of Eden Health Retreat.
“Every choice we make—whether it’s the therapies we offer, the meals we serve, or the way our spaces are designed—reflects a deep intention. But the true honour lies in the thousands of guests who have trusted us with their wellness journey. Their stories of growth, healing and transformation are what inspire us each and every day.”
An Award That Reflects Our Deeper Purpose
Presented by LUXlife Magazine, now in its tenth year, the Resorts and Retreats Awards shine a light on properties that are setting global benchmarks in wellness, experience and luxury. These awards don’t just celebrate beautiful destinations—they recognise places that leave a lasting impact.
In a wellness tourism sector now worth more than $1 trillion, where more and more travellers are seeking experiences that nourish the soul, Eden stands as a pioneer. Our offering goes beyond luxury. It’s about helping guests come home to themselves.
Listening to Our Guests, Evolving with Intention
As much as we’re proud of our heritage, we’re always looking forward, and we believe that listening to our guests is the key to staying relevant in a changing world.
Over the past year, we noticed a growing demand for shorter, more accessible escapes. Many of our guests shared that they longed for a taste of Eden, but couldn’t always commit to our longer stays due to family, work or travel commitments.
So, in true Eden fashion, we designed something special.
Our Weekend Wellness – 2 Night Stay
Our Weekend Wellness Escape is a new 2-night package that gives guests the chance to experience the essence of Eden in a short, powerful stay. It’s ideal for those needing a quick reset, a break from the noise, or simply a chance to breathe.
We’re offering two options to suit your preferences:
Classic Weekend Wellness
- Check-in: Friday between 2pm–4pm
- Check-out: Sunday, 10am
Includes: Daily wellness classes (including yoga, movement, mindfulness), World-class dining with nourishing cuisine, luxurious welcome gift waiting in your room
Early Arrival Experience
- Guaranteed check-in: 11am Friday
- Includes all the above, plus:
- Lunch on arrival, so you can begin your wellness journey even earlier
Both packages have been thoughtfully designed to create a restorative, enriching experience in just one weekend.
Our Weekend Wellness stay is more than a short break. It’s an invitation to pause, reset and reconnect with what matters most. Whether you’re joining us for the first time or returning for a familiar embrace, this new experience captures the heart of what makes Eden so special.
Always Evolving, Always with Intention
As we look to the future, one thing remains clear – Eden will never stop evolving.
Our commitment to transformation is not just about adding new experiences or spaces. It’s about listening closely to our guests, honouring the ever-changing nature of wellness, and ensuring that every offering remains aligned with the heart of what Eden stands for.
Whether it’s expanding our accommodation, refining our wellness programs, or introducing new retreats like the Weekend Wellness stay, we approach each step forward with care and purpose.
We’re excited about what’s to come, and we’ll continue to grow in ways that honour our roots while meeting the needs of today’s guests. Because at Eden, change isn’t just welcomed, it’s woven into our journey.
As we celebrate this award and the launch of our new offering, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to our community, our dedicated team, and above all, our guests. Your stories, your trust and your presence are what make Eden what it is.
